I agree Allan, Magic is awesome. I love reading about Houdini. Thanks for this article…

I posted this link to two magic chat-board sites. Magicians LOVE it when famous people from other walks of life practice the art of magic as a hobby, and Colleen Moore is a name I’ve never seen mentioned on any of the usual “lists” of such luminaries (although Harold Lloyd is a very well-known practitioner). I REALLY appreciate you finding and sharing this information, not only because of the Colleen Moore insight, but because I previously had NO IDEA that magic was “one of filmland’s chief sources of pastime” – I was under the mistaken impression that it was murder and scandal. I was clearly reading the wrong articles, and am glad to know the truth at last.
