Jeff Pinsky on the cover of Northern Peeks
Jeff Pinsky, owner of the Browsers Den of Magic, is featured in the most recent issue of Northern Peeks (Vol 17, 1, Summer 2014), the publication of the Canadian Association of Magicians!
In it, Joan Caesar has a wonderful interview with Jeff.
From the interview, Jeff says:
Too true Jeff. And we're lucky to have you operating Browser's!
Lee Asher agrees:
What Lee said!
I've said this before and feel the need to say it again. I urge everyone to support our remaining brick and mortar magic shops. It's the first place many kids get bitten by the magic bug. It's a place they can go for encouragement and coaching, by people in the know. A nurturing community is formed in a local shop, which can't be duplicated through the internet.
Don't have brick and mortar shop in your area? Consider supporting one through their online shops. (I direct your attention to two of the wonderful sponsors of this blog, Perfect Magic and of course, The Browser's Den of Magic!)

From the interview, Jeff says:
However, a magic shop is a specialty retail store and as such has some unique factors that come into play. Its most unique feature is that the person operating the shop is more central to its relations with the patrons.
Too true Jeff. And we're lucky to have you operating Browser's!
Lee Asher agrees:
With many brick and mortar magic shops closing down and going out of business theses days, Jeff Pinsky works hard to ensure the Ontario magic community continues to thrive. Running The Browser's Den of Magic seven days a week is a small testament to his immense dedication and passion for the art of magic. Thank you Mr. Pinsky. Thank you!

Own a piece of magic history.
I am just about to buy an amazing piece of comedy memorabilia and am putting up a magic four pack of autographs from my collection. They are Houdini (a letter with his actual signature from 1926) and pictures framed. Blackstone Sr. (from 1949) an actual Merlin playbill signed by Doug Henning and Chita Rivera from early 1980’s) and David Copperfield see attached pictures. I thought I’d put it out to my friends in Canada first before the open market $2500.
