Delve into the sharp wit and comedy magic of a legendary performer with Now You Can Get the Best of Senator Crandall (1969), published by the iconic Abbott’s Magic Company and compiled by master magician Neil Foster. Famous for his dry humor, razor-sharp ad-libs, and impeccable comedic timing, Clarke "Senator" Crandall was a fixture of mid-century magic conventions and comedy stages. This sought-after compilation gathers Crandall’s classic routines, clever patter lines, sight gags, and original close-up tricks, offering an invaluable masterclass for comedy magicians, emcees, and stage performers looking to elevate their audience handling.
This exceptional copy carries standout historical significance, featuring a personal signed inscription directly from Senator Crandall. Issued in 1969 as a softcover booklet by Abbott’s Magic Magic Company, original printings signed by Crandall himself are notoriously difficult to find due to the ephemeral nature of vintage magic softcovers. Perfect for comedy magic historians, vintage booklet collectors, and performing illusionists, this inscribed piece serves as a rare, authentic artifact from one of the magic world's true comedic geniuses.
