In my capacity as editor of The Yankee Magic Collector, I have been very fortunate over the years to work with some of the most thoughtful (and thorough) magic historians on the planet. The latest issue of The Yankee Magic Collector will be released at The 15th Yankee Gathering which opens this week. This periodical dedicated to magic history has a wonderful collection of articles on a variety of topics from both well-established authors in the field as well as a few newcomers. Anyone interested in magic history will find this collection a worthwhile investment.

They will be available at the Gathering and then afterwards by post. Click http://nemca.com/yankee-collector/ for more information. There will be a link added in the next day or so for this issue.

Thanks to Steve Brooks for letting me post this here!
