Some one has been lying about his age. On a serious note I would love to see these on dvd sometime any one got any ideas if they are?

I do believe that's supposed to be Leon Mandrake the guy that made the name famous.

Actually it is from the 1930's tv show. Mandrake was also in the Defenders of the earth cartoon and in some comics.

A nice presentation of the C and B, shame it lacked a big finish !!

Indeed you will notice that Mr Drake does lie about his age, for he is not 59!!!
when i saw him i thought "nah, doesn't look a day over 26..."
ok, that might be a bit of a lie too, but he's not looking too shabby for a 59 year old, i would certainly guess a bit younger.
we could make a poll out of it!!!!!!!

anyway, cups and balls, yeh, you can't go wrong. something i need to start playing about with really, or maybe it will end up on the shelf next to my linking rings set.

That was definitely the quintissential magician of the 1930s. Top hat, cane, cape, he had it all! :wink:
