From our archives:
"A box of matches and a copy of "Match-ic" is all you need to be set to do some of the most fascinating magic you've encountered in a long time. It may be on a Lilliputian scale, but the work presented in "Matchic" is all there—for cleverness, ingenuity, and adaptability.
This is just the sort of thing you business men want—a bit of magic you can pick out of your pocket as you light your cigar or cigarette. Pave the way to a friendly contact with your client or customer by interesting him in a magic trick before talking business.
And for the dinner table-or the luncheon-there isn't any diversion that interests and fascinates like these little match tricks. Everybody at your end of the table will be engrossed in you-if you do something else with your matches besides dropping them in the ash tray.
The close up man will want this book because, no matter how much he thinks he knows about match tricks, there's a new one for him in "Matchic."
"Matchic" is full of magic, gags, laughs, tricks that have never before appeared in print. Learn about the Roly Poly Box, the Kiddie Kar Gag, the Smoke From Nowhere, and the hand over hand routine—70 impromptu tricks in all."
