Magic Inventors In writing articles for The Wizards' Journal, I try to credit magic inventors when they are known. As a result of my work on the inventor's index to the Rice Encyclopedia of Silk Magic, Volumes 1 to 3, I heard of an "unauthorized" Fourth Volume produced by Mark Trimble in memory and in honor of Harold Rice. Please note that this is not the same as the contributor's index to Volume Four Encyclopedia of Silk Magic by Mark Trimble. That index is more complete, being a standard index in alphabetical order of contributors to the work. My inventor's index below is in page order and omits a great deal of information from the Encyclopedia simply because the contributor cited is not necessarily the inventor of the effect, or the effect was deemed to be in the realm of "general magic knowledge" with an unknown creator or creators. However, it should also be noted that this index is more accurate, correcting many of the page number errors and typographical errors that still exist in the original work. |
