Three-panel storyboard honouring the life of Stewart James

From the October 18th article "Courtright’s ‘Einstein of Magicians’ honoured with waterfront storyboard" by Carl Hnatyshyn in Sarnia & Lamton County This Week:

One of Courtright’s most renowned yet reclusive residents was honoured Oct. 15 by Heritage St. Clair, whose members unveiled a three-panel storyboard outlining Stewart James’ remarkable, magical legacy.

Known by his peers as the ‘Einstein of Magicians’ – James was venerated with the unveiling of an informative monument along the St. Clair River Trail in Courtright Waterfront Park.

James – who was born in Courtright in 1908 and lived there until his death in 1996 – was one of the most prolific producers of magic tricks in history. He was an illusionist extraordinaire and inventor of over 1,000 unique tricks, all created with the use of mathematical and scientific principles.

James’ book on magic, published in 1989 by long-time friend Allan Slaight, is still the largest book of magic tricks ever printed.
