Mark Wilson TV Magic Show Set: 1957 Time Capsule and the first Magic Infomercial! scarce!

This incredible set was produced in 1957 and sold on TV by Mark Wilson.  Only two or three existed in important collections but in 1996 during a move Mark and Nani uncovered a few sets and decided to offer them to collectors. Of course they quicky sold out.  They selling price was $250 in 1996.

With this auction you get the offer letter. the signed certificate of authentic by Nani and Mark, the signed letter describing how all of this came about and the history of the set  (signed by Nani and Mark), and a short note signed  by Mark.

Interestingly enough these sets were actually put together by Johnny Gaughan as a kid in high school.  Nani would pick him up and take him to their home to assemble the sets.  It was the beginning of a long relationship between the Wilson’s and Johnny.

The set is in excellent condition and will come to you in the storage box it has been preserved in since 1996, It is 17.5 x 11.5 inches.  A true piece of magic and television history!

estimate $400-600
