Max Malini | King of Magicians?

Max Malini was a one-of-a-kind magician, and Steve Cohen has partnered with Squash Publishing in Chicago to bring us the definitive magic book on Malini's life and magic. Let's talk about Max Malini King of Magicians and Magician of Kings.

I received this book as a review copy from Squash Publishing, but it in no way influenced my review - I just wanted you to know.

Loved your review Jeff! This book looks beautiful. A real labour of love by the publisher and author. I’ve aways been a fan of Malini and his magic. As soon as I can afford it I’m getting it. Thanks for posting!

Great review, You covered this well. One thing I strongly agree with is how entertaining this book is to read. The arrangement, the quips and anecdotes, the carefully designed illustrations, photos, and use of white space all make it a fun book to read. I was a little worried it would be dry, but it is far from that.

Great review. I’m disappointed that there is so much missing. I opted for the Deluxe Edition and it should be delivered early next week. They told me it shipped on Friday. I’m interested to see the differences. They told me I had to pay extra shipping on top of the double the price because to was so much more than the standard edition.

Where can I find out more about Malini to answer the questions you posed? Thank you.

Hi Jeff.Hows it going?!I hope you and yours are well.

Dear Jeff, thank you. This was very erudite - for Homer Simpson (kidding). In regards to your questions, they are partially answered in David Ben’s article on Malini, published in Genii in 2013.

L&L reprinted Lewis Ganson's Malini Book. The original version was actually published by Harry Stanley in the UK. Those rights were then acquired by the Supreme Magic Company. L&L ultimately got the rights to the Malini book and the other Dai Vernon books ghostwritten by Ganson and did the most recent set of reprints.

My friends know I'm broke. Haha

I thought the performing in front of presidents was clever!🤣🤣🤣
