The book is dedicated to the memory of the late great Roy Walton and spotlights some of Glasgow’s finest magicians past and present.

Past Glaswegian masters have included Max Holden, Alex Stewart, Max Raskin, George McKenzie, Richard Armour, Jimmy Findlay, Dex Warren, Tommy Frederick and Duncan Johnstone. Take a look back in time as we list some of the members of the Glasgow Society of Magicians (1918) the Mystic Twelve (1920s) and the Night Owls (1950s).

We then surge forward to 1965 where a very special magical revival begins to emerge in Glasgow. The reason for this can be explained in two words – Roy Walton.

Roy’s knowledge, vast experience and infectious enthusiasm had created a Card Magic renaissance that no one in Glasgow had experienced before. The Walton touch began influencing others on a grand scale.

The Glasgow Magic scene – a veritable who’s who of magic from the 1970s. Who were the main players? It’s all here...

This book can only be purchased by contacting me directly via email or via this website. Only a limited amount of copies will be available.
