Canada's Magic

Do you know who performed in Summerside, PEI in the late 1970s?

Can anyone help Shawn by identifying the mystery performer below?

From Shawn Farquhar's December 31st post on Facebook:

Magic friends, here's my trivia question to end out 2020. A long time ago, probably 1977/78 a young magician from the US, came to Summerside, PEI to perform at my local mall. Yes, Summerside had a mall. I saw the show and obtained a flyer. It didn't have his name, nor contact information. I have a darn good memory, I can tell you what he did and the order as well, BUT for the life of me, I can't recall his name.
Who is this?

In the past year we have been forced to make drastic and rapid changes if we wanted to continue performing. We have assembled a panel of performers, each of whom has made their own transition into the virtual space and found a way to perform from home. The panel will share their experiences, what works, what doesn’t, the challenges they have overcome and the gadgets and gizmos that make virtual performances possible.
