All,
I had the honor of visiting Owens Magic Supreme just yesterday (for the first time) and I tell you it was so amazing. I was like a kid in a candy store. They don't just make illusions, they make works of art. You can tell that the owner really cares about each piece that goes out and better yet the clients needs and what is best for them and their show. The staff were so helpful and very friendly. Anyone looking for that "million dollar" looking prop that will propel their show to the next level will need (NO! Have to) go to Owens Magic Supreme. You won't be disappointed. Disclaimer: I don't have any association with Owens besides being a huge fan of theirs. Also, I was just sharing my wonderful experience I had with the team at Owens Magic. Look them up! BYUDAD |

My wife and I were attending the I.B.M. or SAM convention (can't remember which)in Las Vegas in 1998 and got to meet Alan Zagorski of Owens at his booth. We hit it off right away. He was so great to us. He had us bump our flight home and he took us out to L.A., wined and dined us and took us to the shop where we got to meet Les and Gerty (spelling) and Harry Blackstone JR stopped in for a visit and we even got to meet him. Unfortunately, it was just before he died, and you would hardly have recognized him. But, he was a gentleman and very giving of his advice and time. Alan also put us up at an unbelieveable hotel while we were in town. Alan (and Owens Magic Supreme) made a young couple feel like a king and queen. It remains one of my fondest magical memories.
Owens is pure class. And the artistry they bring to our industry can't be beat. Mad Jack |

I made the journey out to Asuza years ago .. and it was pretty cool. I didn't get a chance to see the shop, maybe next time.
My good friend David Seebach, is featured in their catalog along side many of his illusions. I've been lucky enough to see their work right up close, and I have to tell you ... it's craftsmanship at it's finest. Their wood working is unmatched in the field of magic. I'd love to own a piece or two ... just to look at it, touch it .. sleep beside it. I've said too much ... Steve |

A friend and I were fortunate to visit a few years ago and to meet Les and Alan. They couldn't have been any nicer to us. Les found out that I was a woodworker, so he showed me a lot of things that most people probably wouldn't even be interested in seeing.
I do own a few Owen pieces, but I keep them carefully packed away when not in use. I am afraid the rings would be too cold to sleep with... ')
Things are more like they are today than they've ever been before...

All,
Alan is as Mad Jack described, A class act! When I saw their Zig Zag that they were sending out it was a thing of beauty. I wanted it right then but it was for another customer. Darn it all! Maybe someday. They also do many other things as well. They told me that they had a part of 70 floats in the Rose Parade and that they were making a prop for an upcoming movie. It goes to show that if you put out a great product you can and will venture off into other industries with the same success. Steve, They can build anything, even a guitar impailed. Next time you go to everything from A to Z in the USA you should stop by. BYUDAD |

Yea, I'd the honor to be there before as well. They made one of the finest quality of illusions around the Los Angeles area.
