At Ease (1966 – 1975) by Harvey Turner ( Instant Download )

Exclusive Digital Magic Products for Magicians

Who would have thought the US Armed Forces had a magicians association? The association was started by Opie Houston, then an Air Force Sergeant. At Ease was the organ of the Armed Forces Magicians Association. It ran from July 1966 until January 1975, but it had some gaps here and there and was not released on a particularly regular schedule.

Some of the trick contributors were Opie R. Houston, William E. Clover, Erwin M. Storke, Vernon Weiss, Bob Ford, Don Guilmain, Dave Richards, Harvey Turner, Kent Cummins, Ed Middleton, Prince Kazar, Jim Williams, Chas Crowley, John Guthrie, Arthur Estes, Ron Bonneau, John Oakley, Mike Rogers, Roland Jarvis, David B. Schwilk, Wiley Porter, Jerome Maciejewski, Oscar Pittman, Al Forwood, and others.
