Jack gwynne biography book by charvetia

Details: (From the Prologue) Jack Gwynne: a name that during the first half of the twentieth century meant the finest in magic.

But now, to a new generation, scarcely more than a decade after his passing, the many exploits, contributions and innovations of Jack Gwynne to the art of illusion have faded into obscurity; as well as the name “GWYNNE” itself.

Jack’s career was one of many facets.

Vaudeville headliner, pioneer night club and floor show illusionist, designer and manufacturer of magic and illusions, motion picture and television performer, school and circus entertainer were but a few of the fields that Jack Gwynne was involved with during his lifetime.

Format: 2nd Edition, softbound (1988).
