Bob Ostin broken wand . 1929 - 2013.

Its with some sadness that I have to report the passing of another of magic's most creative thinkers, and performers, Bob Ostin.
A true Character, whom it was always a pleasure to be around his magic has found its home in many peoples acts, either through his wonderful lectures, or his book fingertip fantasies, or the recently published A lifetime of magical inventions, by Stephen Tucker.
His sympathetic match boxes, were released by Tenyo in 2009, and as a sign of his generosity he gave this effect them, for free.

I am sure that If there is a pub in heaven, you will find Bob there with a pint, reminiscing over the good times with Peter Kane, and a host of other magical thinkers. :)

you're like Yoda.you dont say much, but what you do say is worth listening to....
