Harry Blackstone jr.'s Dancing Handkerchief 1979

I too got to see Blackstone perform this and the floating lightbulb in the early '90s. Great magician and great stage presence.

when I was six, he came to my school and did some wonderful magic, and I got to be one of his assistants. Harry Blackstone Jr. was the greatest person that ever practised the art of illusion. The world is poorer for his absence.

That should be the big sexy butt of Kim Kardashian dancing by itself: wiggle wiggle wiggle! Kim would wear a thong panty with her entire big butt sticking out. As her butt dances and wiggles, Kim yells: OOOOOOOOOO!!!!

I only saw Harry Blackstone Jr. on television when I was young, but I remember being tremendously impressed. I still am today; what stagecraft! Thanks for posting this.

I know it was sped up due to YouTube time limits, but it's really a shame to do that to a great magician like Blackstone!

yeah, pity you fast forwarded through the business with the knots -- it's quite charming.

I've seen him perform that several times - never tire of it. I wish that one part wasn't fast forwarded because that is something I would have wanted to see.

I remember when Blackstone turned a cage of 5 sexy pretty ladies into tigers. The best!

That was great. I wonder if there are clips of Doug Henning performing his dancing hanky on the Muppet Show.

[renaissancemagic]

Yes, I have them & I will try to post them but in mid-January.

I was lucky enough to see Harry perform several times. I even performed with him in San Francisco, I was eating fire.

One of the greatest ever, a true legend!
