Eddie Fechter

This video of Eddie Fechter was taken by Brian Gillis at the Forks Hotel in Buffalo, NY in 1978. This was in the last year of Eddie's life when he was suffering from cancer and he did not have the energy and power he did in his prime, you can see the way he worked and the quality of his sleight of hand.

[@Skepticforum]

Brilliant.

[@Artifice87]

Does anyone know the name of the trick he start's at 2:00

[@Captainscentsable44]

I've seen it before. I believe I own it on a video download. But I forget the name. I think bill Malone does this. Which probably means ed marlo did it.

I've decided that there are magicians,
And there are people that do real magic that only pretend to be magicians... Lol

[@Captainscentsable44]

Yep he was a true performer .
