Celebrating a lifetime in magic dealing, author Ian Adair remembers a wealth of amusing incidents, all of which happened over fifty years whilst trading at the famous Supreme Magic Company - disasters, failures, catastrophes, misjudgements, misfortunes, blunders, bloopers and quirky situations which he reminisces with the readers of this ebook.
One such 'incident' happened outside the Supreme depot late one evening. Arriving early the following morning at the premises, we noticed the letter P missing from the Supreme sign. We later found out that a small gang of lads were returning home from a local nightclub when one was reported to have said, "I need a pee!" One of the other lads climbed onto the windowsill and 'obliged' him - he removed the P.
Written in an entertaining style, the author reveals those 'behind the scenes' incidents, although being disastrous at the time, now appear to be ridiculously funny.
