"Dude who fooled me the most with cards: In 1991, it was Spain's Juan Tamariz; In 1992, it was Sweden's Lennart Green; In 1993, it was Chicago Conjurer Jim Krenz." - Dan Garrett

"Jim Krenz was my personal favorite due to his very likable character and absolutely astounding card work He brought the house down with his signed cards routine.." - Erika Larsen

"I literally saw jaws drop at Krenz's multiple signed card revelation." - Hiawatha

"When I was a child, I was fascinated with the magical emotion that I felt upon watching magicians I could not comprehend anything-what I would see was impossible;. Now I love to feel this emotion It does not occur very often Normally.. , I can see behind the curtain-I see the "hidden" secrets and the mechanics. But from time to time a magician performs a trick, or several tricks that seem impossible-and the magical emotion returns. This happens to me with Jim Krenz (how wonderful!) For this, thank you Jim ".! - Juan Tamariz
