product description:
The Great Slydini — Tony Slydini — is featured here on two videos from the Dick Cavett Show, along with commentary by Cavett. One video is from 1977 and the other from 1978. Taken together, they feature Slydini performing many of his most famous effects: coins through the table, silk routine, Helicopter Card, Paper Balls Over the Head, cigarette manipulations, torn and restored newspaper, and much more. Relatively few videos of Slydini in action exist & while he was an elderly man in these shows, he still has the famous "Slydini Touch" that made him a master of sleight-of-hand. Together, both performances run just over one very enjoyable hour.
