Spring Magic Auction
This April, we present the first auction from the remarkable magic collection of Bill Trotter. Assembling what is unquestionably one of the largest gatherings of contemporary magic props in America, Bill's dedication to developing his collection will be evident in every lot of the sale. From near-complete runs of props made by Mel Babcock and Chance Wolf, to giant gatherings of props built by Owen Magic Supreme, John McKinven, Michael Baker, and other modern craftsmen (and a few magic factories, too), anyone seeking uncommon, unusual, or uncommonly well-made magic constructed in the last fifty years is sure to find a useable prop or choice collectible in this auction.
