Hi All:
I think I remember seeing Pavel do close-up magic at one of the afternoon
sessions during the regular Abbott's summer convention just a few years ago.
He did rope tricks of course- what a treat. As a kid, I made up my own set
of Pavel color changing rings on rope (then sold by Abbott's) out of
cardboard, bulldog clips and my mother's clothesline as I did not have enough
money to buy the trick. I still have a set of his original regularly spaced
"walking knot" trick- only took it out of the bag a couple of times- yet
another great Pavel trick that becomes a masterpiece with good practice. It
usually shows up every year during someone's evening routine at Abbott's and
I always think: "Oh, yah, I have that trick" and sit back and eat another
Twizzler. Sad to hear, another good magician took his final bow. Roger
from Kalamazoo
