Miracles - The Magic Of James Swain

The material contained in these four DVDs has entertained laymen and fooled magicians for nearly 40 years. These are not simply tricks, but time-tested miracles that will leave a lasting impression on your audiences for years to come. Many have been performed on television — including CBS Sunday Morning and FOX TV — while the rest have been tested on audiences during thousands of performances. I hope you enjoy them.
— Magically, James Swain
