Fox, Karrell. Five Karrell Fox Magic Books Inscribed and Signed to Johnny Thompson. Including Goodies (Supreme, 1991); Abrakfox (Foxes? Den, 1983); Clever?Like a Fox (Supreme, 1976); Another Book (Supreme, 1979); and Lecture Notes (ca. 1980). Illustrated 8vos in cloth and paper. Each with minor faults, but good condition overall, and each volume warmly inscribed and signed by Fox to Johnny and Pam Thompson. Fox and Thompson were both considered the ?general practitioners? of magic, in that both men worked in nearly every venue in the field, performing nearly every type of magic, from close-up card tricks to illusions. The two worked together often on industrial shows and auto shows, using magic to promote products and deliver sales messages, a field in which they both excelled.
