History: The classic illusion dates back to the late 1920s (invented by William Wisnewski and manufactured by Floyd Thayer) and has been produced by various magic makers over the decades.

Golden’s Magic Wand (frequently referred to by collectors as simply Magic Wand) was a prominent mid-century American magic manufacturing company based in Southern California, primarily active during the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s.
The company is highly regarded by magic historians and vintage collectors for producing vibrant, well-crafted parlor and stage illusions.
