Collection of 100 Thayer and Owen Magic Blueprints. Los Angeles and elsewhere: Thayer/Owen Magic Supreme, 1950s - 80s. A large collection of over 100 detailed blueprints for some classic and some little-known stage illusions constructed by the famous California firms. Included are plans for the Broomstick Suspension, Spiker, Disembodied Princess, Asrah, and lesser-known effects, including Hamfat the Mindreader, the Demon of Doom, Goddess and Reptile, Flight of the Rodents, and many, many more. Most 24 x 20". A few bent or folded edges, but generally very good condition. As extensive a collection as we have offered, these examples directly from the files of Owen Magic Supreme.
