I'm interested in "Time Travel" plots.

I know of Bruce Elliott's (in The Phoenix and "Magic As A Hobby"), Gary Kurtz's (in "Unexplainable Acts"), Marlo's "Time Machine", and Darwin Ortiz's (in "The Cardshark", I think).

Does anyone out there know of any more published material?

Many thanks.

Many thanks. The Sankey one was unknown to me, and the other two I'd forgotten.

There are many effects that could be presented as time travel plots if you wanted to craft a presentation along these lines.

Examples:

The Ring, Watch, Wallet Effect by Tommy Wonder
The Signed Card by Brother John Hamman

There is an oldie in one of the Karl Fulves magazines from the 1970s. It has a rope circle around a chair as I recall.

Folks have toyed with that plot since the early 1950s. Even more so after more folks read the Bradbury story about what happens when you go back in time and change one small thing.

I used to plot Card Warp as time travel. So have many others.
Will you walk into my parlour? said the Spider to the Fly,
Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy;
The way into my parlour is up a winding stair,
And I've a many curious things to show when you are there.

Oh no, no, said the little Fly, to ask me is in vain,
For who goes up your winding stair
-can ne'er come down again.
