THE MAGIC WORLD SALUTES A GIANT

Harry Lorayne (May 4, 1926 – April 7, 2023) was an American magician, memory-training specialist and author who was called "The World's Foremost Memory-Training Specialist" by Time magazine. 

He was well known for his incredible memory demonstrations, and appeared on numerous television shows including 24 appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. 

On just about every appearance demonstrating his memory abilities, he would personally meet dozens of audience members as they arrived before the show, and then would start his segment of the show by asking all the people he met to please stand. He would then point to each of them 

and correctly call every single person by name!

He was also renowned for his innovative card magic.

His book The Memory Book was a New York Times bestseller. 

He was a prolific author, penning over 40 books on magic

and memory building, many of which are still in print.

Siegfried and Roy were always very publicity oriented.
For years, their publicist took photos of them at each and every event they attended, and with every celebrity who came to their show.
These great photos would then be distributed along with press releases 

to various media outlets.
Their constant coverage in the press was one of the reasons for their longevity and popularity in Las Vegas.

We met Siegfried and Roy in the late 1980s. 
Over the next 15 years or so, they would send us packets of photos, calendars and other souvenirs.
They were by far the most spectacular magicians to ever grace the stage!

These are the photos and press releases sent to us by Siegfried and Roy 

in the early 2000s.
