The Best Thing I've Ever Bought...
I recently purchased Colin Rose's Anniversary Boxed Magic Set. With only 20 to eventually be made, I feel extremely lucky to obtain the finest handmade magic set in existence. The workmanship of the box and its contents are of the highest quality--Colin is a master woodworker and every one of the 20 tricks contained in the set are gorgeous. The wooden box itself is a work of art, with jointed corners and wooden hinges and latch. I could not be happier with my purchase. Bravo!"The Houdini" #1
“…I just opened it up and all I can say is it takes my breath away! I have not even taken the red tissue of the individual effects yet and I love it. I love the way you made the box itself with the wooden hinges and the wooden front clasp.... just exquisite! It’s just "Brilliant" I must say. I can't wait to go through each effect and look at what wood you used and the effect itself (some I own which you know of course). Well done to the both of you! You could have charged double and I would have paid it!”
