The first one is Mandrake 30 years ago, and the second one is Jon Thompson (Tomo)

The mustache one is Harry Blackstone, found that out by accident googling for the history of card magic!

Google images inverse search: you drop an image in the normal google image search bar, it tries and guess what the image is. In this case, it found a website with the very same picture.

Very clever.

Ivor Parry, better Known as Rovi, I've got his book, 'Rovi-the story of a man and his magic', some nice stuff in there.

Awesome utility - put in someone's picture and see who they look like, the results may not be what you expect!

I knew the second one was Harry Blackstone immediately. But I missed Rovi. I knew him slightly, and he was a wonderful entertainer. One of the very few who could actually entertain with a deck of cards. But the picture is missing something - I never saw the man without a smile.

"I never saw the man without a smile."

I did, when his thick card split..

Rovi was nothing short of brilliant when it came to entertaining with a deck of cards.

Paul.
