Henning, Doug. Doug Henning?s the Magic Show Touring Company Metamorphosis Costumes. Circa 1976. Set of two costumes used in the touring production of Henning?s hit Broadway magical musical, comprised of a breakaway jumpsuit of denim pants and blue fabric tunic with red webbing belt; and a bright white fabric ensemble comprised of a shirt and pants. In the latter, the name ?Jeff? is faintly visible in the waistband of the trousers. Obtained from Abb Dickson, who purchased many of the props used in Henning?s shows, and accompanied by a letter from Dickson stating that the costumes were Henning?s. In Henning?s version of the classic Substitution Trunk trick, his costume changed entirely when the trick was performed, from the blue jean jumpsuit to the white spandex outfit.
