Len traveled extensively before and after the war years, gaining a worthy reputation for reliable magic with and without props. Often simple, familiar items from the pocket were all he used. His ever-courteous deportment made him extremely popular with audiences; return engagements kept him very busy indeed.
A full-time performer for most of his adult life, this especially prepared folio traces the professional life of Leonard Austin and reveals just how his dependability buoyed him around the various theatrical circuits. Many other performers fell into oblivion, whereas Leonard Austin did not; he forged a career that lasted well in excess of fifty years.
Essential reading for the discerning children's performer and those interested in the great stage magicians of the 20th Century.
