1958 Greatest Magicians

 Milbourne Christopher, shown here levitating a beautiful assistant with the greatest of ease, is acclaimed by magicians themselves to be the foremost historian of magic.  His immense reference library covers 5000 years of hocus-pocus, and his Manhattan apartment is the largest museum of magic in existence.  In addition, Chrisopher is one of the greatest of contemporary wizards and is past president of the Society of American Magicians.

 Suspicious London bobby was the first spectator to see David Devant's startling illusion, "The Mascot Moth"

 Bearded DeKolta made his wife disappear in view of audience.  Newspapers proved no trap doors were used.

"Onaip" was a staggering illusion in which a piano and pianist revolved in midair during musical number

Horace Goldin was a master at sawing an assistant in half, one of the most famous and spectacular of all stage illusions  All other magicians placed the girl in a closed box, but Goldin simply had her lie on a plank throughout his surgical sorcery.

1958 Ad: Hi Ho Crackers

This ad depicts life in 1958.
Yes, ladies cleaned house & cooked in dresses. Most ladies magazines encouraged them to "look good for husband when he got home from work".

When I was young, in the early '60s, girls still wore dresses to school.  I protested in first grade and my mom made some slacks for me to wear.  I was a tomboy.

The struggle was real with the cord telephone. Waiting your turn to use the phone. Party lines in rural areas.  Worrying that the boy you liked was going to try to call and get a busy signal because a sibling was on the phone.  Good times.
