I'm in Phoenix for a bit and wondering if anyone knows of an actual brick and mortar store in the Phoenix area?
Seems Presto Studio has been closed over a year though google still lists them. Have had trouble finding anything else. Can't believe in an area with 3 million people there isn't one around. Thanks in advance. |

I moved here for Graduate School over a year ago, and, sad to say, there is no brick and mortar shop here.
I know a few of the circus folk in town, and have taken my daughter to see some local magicians, but so far I haven't sat down with anyone local. Best wishes, Brian |

Robert - Barry Schor who owns Presto did close the physical shop more than a year ago as he couldn't compete with the online vendors. Barry continues to run Presto as an online option especially if you're looking for pre-owned props or antique props.
As far as getting together with local magicians you're best bet is to look at one of the monthly SAM or IBM meetings. And FYI, I believe greater Phoenix now has approximately 6 million residents putting it in the top ten largest cities in the U.S. (or so I'm told my the locals).

Easley's Magic Shop on 3rd ave and camelback.
It's a big yellow building. It's run by Herb Easley, Burt Easley's son. |

Wow, I remember Easley from back in the day.
especially around Halloween time in Phx, AZ. radio ads and more. How about the Magic shop in Scottdale, I can't remember the name. |

Hi Max.
Yes, I'm here until early November. Do you work there? Will try to swing in tomorrow if I get time. If not, Monday or Tuesday. |
