Speaker 1 (00:00):
H The Magic Detective, starring the world's greatest living magician, Blackstone.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
He tells you the inside story of.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
The Icy Touch.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Right after the story, Blackstone will explain tricks that you
yourself can perform, reveal the guarded secrets of the world's
greatest living magician. And now stand by for Blackstone, the
(00:51):
Magic Detective.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Where's that put this black.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Over there in the cabinet? It uh looks rather impressive,
doesn't it.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Had he got something new, Blackstone, a new magic of
some kind? Oh ho, don no, No, This medallion in
itself has no.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Magic power, but it was magic that held Blackstone.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
Get it?
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Real magic? Or so it seemed.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Well, this sounds like a story, Blackstone, tell me about it.
Go on Backton, all right, Rhoda done.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Have you ever heard of Herbert Maybrook?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Why isn't he one of the greatest collectors of the
arts in this country?
Speaker 5 (01:30):
I should think about the greatest. Why that medallion alone
is wheth fifty thousand bucks. And that, in case you
didn't know it, Don Hancock is a lot of dull Oh,
I know that?
Speaker 3 (01:39):
All right?
Speaker 2 (01:40):
A Blackstone, You don't mean to tell me that Maybrook
gave you that medallion? You must know where the body
is buried.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
No, you knew where the medallion was buried.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
Ah, Look, suppose you go on with a story Blackstone.
Your Galfrid is getting me more than somewhat confused.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
All right, I will.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Last night, Rhoda and I were invited out to the
Maybrook mansion to do some magic for a selected group
of maybe Brooke's friends.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
When we got there, Maybrook was showing the medallion to
his gait.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
There it is the Maybrook Medallion.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Oh, Golley, isn't it beautiful?
Speaker 3 (02:11):
It's beautiful? What made you sure tonight? Maybrook? You've never
done it.
Speaker 6 (02:16):
Before, I know it, but all of you are friends
of mine, and I knew I could trust.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
You the thing. It's valuable.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
That couldn't anyone who stole it tell it to another collector?
On a no questions?
Speaker 6 (02:25):
I asked, Basis, Yes, I'm afraid they could. Collectors are
a funny breed of cattle misprints. They'll want some particular
object so much that they'll forget morals, decency, and honesty,
just the possession.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Would you like to hold it?
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Thanks, Golle. Just think of me standing here holding something
worth fifty thousand bucks in my hands, you know, excuse me,
he has to tell here, take it.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Somebody, let me see it. It's wonderful thing, isn't it,
mister Blackstone. Yes, I've always loved these early Greek medals. Here, Maybrook,
you better put this away. Oh I I have an idea. Yes,
what is it?
Speaker 6 (03:01):
Mister Blackstone is going to do some tricks for us tonight.
He's the world's greatest magician and this is the world's
greatest medallion.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Oh no, Maybrook, don't ask me to do a trick
with anything as valuable as this. I'm used to working
with Nichols and din The Madolion is bigger than most coins.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Hey, if you mean by that that you don't think
Blackstone can do the trick with it, you're crazy easy there, Roder,
Go on, Blackstone, show them that you can too, do
a trick with it.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Well, the responsibility is yours, Maybrook.
Speaker 6 (03:27):
If anything happened, nothing will happen, now, ladies and gentlemen,
mister Blackstone will make the medallion vanish into thin air.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
How about letting all of us see it just once more?
All right with you? Blackstone? Of course?
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Is that thing really worth all that stone?
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Yes, it is it's the only one of its kind
in the world. Gosh, and I held it.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
All right, mister Kenbury, you're the last to look at it.
Shall we go on with the trick?
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Mister Maybrook? Fine, have you ever anything you need? Blackstone? Yes,
I think so. He is a goblet. I'll put the
medallion into it. Oh. Uh, may I have a plate? Please?
Of course? Here you are, thank you. Now can everybody
see the medallion in the goblin? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Now, I put the plate on the top of the goblin.
The medallion is still inside the gas is not. Yes,
it's there, alright. I just wanna make sure that everybody
sees it. I don't wanna be accused of trickery. You
know this really is magic.
Speaker 6 (04:25):
If you can make that medallion disappear, it will really
be magic.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
I can never fear now, mister Maybrook, will you please
tie me to this chair? Roller has some rope in
that back? Uh?
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Here it is. Oh, but they're tying you with your
own rope, Blackstone.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Well, then after I'm tied, mister Kenbrick, pardon me you
you may.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Come and hold me so you can make doubly sure
that I don't leave this chair. Fair enough, Yes, that's
fair enough. Alright, mister Maybrook. Start tying me up.
Speaker 6 (04:52):
Will you right, I'll put the rope around here and here.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Through the arms of the chair.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Fine around again and tie another.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Knock that do it?
Speaker 6 (05:10):
I defy anyone to get out of that mass of ropes.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
What do we do now?
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Well, now, if everyone is sure that I'm completely tied
up so that I cannot escape, I would like to
have you turn out the lights. Then in the dark,
I will cause that medallion to vanish out of the
glass into thin air.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Oh that's quite a trick if you can do.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
It now, if you stand over here and hold onto
my shoulders, mister Kenbury, all right, yuh, I got you already.
Then turn out the lights, mister Maybrook. Right now, all
the lights are out. I will cause the medallion to vanish.
One two stop, turn those lights on. Be quick about
(05:50):
it there? What what's the matter of black sir?
Speaker 4 (05:53):
The medallion's gone.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Quite good? Drink? How did you do it up? I
was holding you all the time. You never left this chair,
mister Maybrook. Your medallion has vanished, yes, but not by magic.
Oh come now, Blackstone, no, I mean it. Someone else
took that medallion from the garbin.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Why is this a joke, mister Blackstone.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
It's not a joke, mister Maybrook. Your medallion has been
told impossible. These people are friends of mine.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Suggests that you search your guests and start with mister Kenbury.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Quick heard him. He's going out the door. That's the idea.
Call me. Take your hands off me. You the medallion?
Speaker 2 (06:27):
You got it, mister Maybrook, Yes, untimy rot, Yeah, it
was in Canbury's pocket.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
You're sure it is your medallion?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Of course, I'm sure I'd know it anywhere.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
He he palmed the climb and hit it on me.
Working together. It was a scheme of Blackstones in mind
or hide the medallion. And then he got frightened. He
wanted to frame me.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
That's true, and I swear no, that's not true. You
have no proof, Oh yes I have. And here it is.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
Another medallion, just like mine, only only this is a copy,
not a very good one. How on earth is Kenbridge tried?
An old trick, mister Maybrook, a very old trick. How
did he do it? Explained mister Blackstone.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
He had been planning to steal your medallion for a
long time, and he had a duplicate made tonight. After
everyone had looked at the medallion, he switched the false
one for the real one. I knew this, and I
palmed the false one, claiming that I had not yet
done it. I knew that a search would be made
and that the original would be found on the person
who'd stolen it.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
That's all there was to it, mister Blackstone.
Speaker 6 (07:29):
I can't thank you enough for all you did for
me tonight.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
And so another mystery was solved by magic, A fifty
thousand dollar mystery. Yes, when I still on't see how
you palmed the false medallion?
Speaker 5 (07:46):
Oh that was simple?
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Oh sure, But how I palmed that before I was
tied up?
Speaker 2 (07:51):
People were so busy looking at me being bound that
they stopped staring at the glass and the medallion. It's
an old magician's trick, and a good one if you
can work it. But there's one more thing I'd like
to know, anything done that is, anything that isn't a
magician's secret. Well, how did you know that Kenburry was
the guilty person? That was easy to just like palming
that coin was easy. How everyone in the room had
(08:11):
handled that medallion? You remember, had passed from one warm
palm to another. But when ken Berry handed it to me,
the medallion was cold.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
You see, the coin should have been worn by the
hands that it attached.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Ken Berry handed me the medallion cold, so I knew
that he was the one who'd switched it. Well, that's
quite a story, Blackstone. And now, uh, you have the medallion, No,
I have the duplicate.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Mister Maybrook gave it to me as a souvenir.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
And a very nice one too, a Blackstone, how about
explaining a trick to us as a souvenir. Fine, I
have got a good one that ties right in with
a medallion story. I'm still thinking about that adventure of yours, Blackstone.
But tell me, could you really have made the medallion vanish?
Speaker 4 (08:48):
You could he vanish a mere medallion?
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Why?
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Of course, Blackstone vanishes me in every show.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
And you always come back rode there, just like the
medallion did. Well, I've got a trick that you can
do yourself done only instead of medallions, I use ordinary
cor uh barred coins as usual, black Stone. No, this time,
I use some of my own a dozen ordinary pennies.
The only reason I use my own pennies is because
I picked ones of different dates.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
Well, what do you want us to do? Remember the date?
Speaker 3 (09:15):
No, only one date? Broder? Now he go the pennies
and the hat.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Oh oh, what do we do now? And pick a coin?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
That's right? I wa'n't I turn my back? Then take
any coin from my hat and look at the date.
Speaker 5 (09:28):
Alright, here goes hm.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Let me see who excided the penny? Is the date on?
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Now here?
Speaker 2 (09:35):
It is?
Speaker 4 (09:35):
I have it.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Now have the coin to don and let him look
for the date too.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
One has to tell you what it is.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Oh no, no, I'll tell you.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Well, what do I do with this penny?
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Keep it? No, toss it back in the hat with
the other coin? Okay there, Now what shake the hat
to mix.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
The coin's thurday? Alright, that's enough. Now give me that hat, kire.
Now you and don concentrate on the date of the
coin you chose. I'll hold each coin to my power,
but until the vibrations from your minds tell me that
I'm holding the coin you chose. Nope, not this one. Uh,
(10:10):
this may be the right one. Now, isn't the right date?
Another coin?
Speaker 5 (10:17):
No?
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Not this one one? More?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Uh, I'm getting warmer. I'll take a look at this coin.
The date is nineteen thirty six, Am I right?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Right?
Speaker 4 (10:28):
Why yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Take the coins roller and now see if you can
figure it out. If you can't, I'll be back in
a moment to tell you.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
How Blackstone you do. I'm still puzzling over the coin trick. Blackstone.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Well you shouldn't be, Rhoda.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Why not.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Don't you remember how I solved the riddle of the
stolen medallion?
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Why?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yes, you notice that the dupic medallion was cold?
Speaker 4 (11:01):
What does that got to do with the coin trick?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I practically told you when I did the trick. Remember
what I said when I found the chosen coin?
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Yes, you said you were getting warmer.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
That's right, and I was getting warmer. I had just
found the warm coin in the head. Naw, I began
to get it.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
I'm not very bright, I guess, But don't you see?
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Rather, all the coins in the hat were cold at first, exactly,
But when Rhoda took one from the hat and handled it,
it began to warmer. And then you had her handed
to me, which made it still warmer.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
And the more people the easier the trick.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Absolutely, after you toss the coin back into the hat,
all I had to do was to take the coins
out one buy one until I felt a warm one.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Say.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
That's a swell trick, Blackstone. Easy to learn and easy
to do.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Anyone can try it right now, can't they?
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Of course they can.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
All they need is a handful of coins, pennies, nickels, dimes,
as long as.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
The dates are different. But here's a little hint to
go with it.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
With that, get the coins really cold first, set them
on a plate and put them in the ice chest.
Then when you go to get a bottle of your
favorite beverage, bring.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
The coins Backay.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I like that.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
The trick for the beverage.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
Ro both they seem they're go together perfectly.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Well, I hope you like that trick, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
And until next time, This is Blackstone saying good magic
and goodbye.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Be with us next time, when the world's greatest living
magician Blackstone tells us the story of the Underwater Death
and explains more tricks that you yourself can perform.
Speaker 2 (12:40):

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Had he got something new, Blackstone, a new magic of
some kind? Oh ho, don no, No, This medallion in

Speaker 4 (01:14):
Magic power, but it was magic that held Blackstone.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
Get it?
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Real magic? Or so it seemed.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Well, this sounds like a story, Blackstone, tell me about it.

Have you ever heard of Herbert Maybrook?

Well, then after I'm tied, mister Kenbrick, pardon me you

Fine around again and tie another.

Knock that do it?
Speaker 6 (05:10):
I defy anyone to get out of that mass of ropes.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
What do we do now?
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Well, now, if everyone is sure that I'm completely tied
up so that I cannot escape, I would like to
have you turn out the lights. Then in the dark,
I will cause that medallion to vanish out of the

Oh that's quite a trick if you can do.

(05:50):
it there? What what's the matter of black sir?
Speaker 4 (05:53):
The medallion's gone.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Quite good? Drink? How did you do it up? I
was holding you all the time. You never left this chair,
mister Maybrook. Your medallion has vanished, yes, but not by magic.
Oh come now, Blackstone, no, I mean it. Someone else
took that medallion from the garbin.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Why is this a joke, mister Blackstone.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
It's not a joke, mister Maybrook. Your medallion has been
told impossible. These people are friends of mine.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Suggests that you search your guests and start with mister Kenbury.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Quick heard him. He's going out the door. That's the idea.
Call me. Take your hands off me. You the medallion?
Speaker 2 (06:27):
You got it, mister Maybrook, Yes, untimy rot, Yeah, it
was in Canbury's pocket.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
You're sure it is your medallion?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Of course, I'm sure I'd know it anywhere.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
He he palmed the climb and hit it on me.
Working together. It was a scheme of Blackstones in mind

Speaker 2 (06:46):
That's true, and I swear no, that's not true. You

Another medallion, just like mine, only only this is a copy,
not a very good one. How on earth is Kenbridge tried?
An old trick, mister Maybrook, a very old trick. How

That's all there was to it, mister Blackstone.
Speaker 6 (07:29):
I can't thank you enough for all you did for
me tonight.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
And so another mystery was solved by magic, A fifty
thousand dollar mystery. Yes, when I still on't see how
you palmed the false medallion?
Speaker 5 (07:46):
Oh that was simple?
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Oh sure, But how I palmed that before I was
tied up?
Speaker 2 (07:51):
People were so busy looking at me being bound that
they stopped staring at the glass and the medallion. It's
an old magician's trick, and a good one if you
can work it. But there's one more thing I'd like
to know, anything done that is, anything that isn't a
magician's secret. Well, how did you know that Kenburry was
the guilty person? That was easy to just like palming
that coin was easy. How everyone in the room had
(08:11):
handled that medallion? You remember, had passed from one warm
palm to another. But when ken Berry handed it to me,
the medallion was cold.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
You see, the coin should have been worn by the
hands that it attached.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Ken Berry handed me the medallion cold, so I knew
that he was the one who'd switched it. Well, that's
quite a story, Blackstone. And now, uh, you have the medallion, No,
I have the duplicate.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Mister Maybrook gave it to me as a souvenir.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
And a very nice one too, a Blackstone, how about
explaining a trick to us as a souvenir. Fine, I
have got a good one that ties right in with
a medallion story. I'm still thinking about that adventure of yours, Blackstone.
But tell me, could you really have made the medallion vanish?
Speaker 4 (08:48):
You could he vanish a mere medallion?
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Why?
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Of course, Blackstone vanishes me in every show.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
And you always come back rode there, just like the
medallion did. Well, I've got a trick that you can
do yourself done only instead of medallions, I use ordinary
cor uh barred coins as usual, black Stone. No, this time,
I use some of my own a dozen ordinary pennies.
The only reason I use my own pennies is because
I picked ones of different dates.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
Well, what do you want us to do? Remember the date?
Speaker 3 (09:15):
No, only one date? Broder? Now he go the pennies
and the hat.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Oh oh, what do we do now? And pick a coin?
Speaker 2 (09:23):
That's right? I wa'n't I turn my back? Then take
any coin from my hat and look at the date.
Speaker 5 (09:28):
Alright, here goes hm.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Let me see who excided the penny? Is the date on?
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Now here?
Speaker 2 (09:35):
It is?
Speaker 4 (09:35):
I have it.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Now have the coin to don and let him look
for the date too.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
One has to tell you what it is.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Oh no, no, I'll tell you.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Well, what do I do with this penny?
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Keep it? No, toss it back in the hat with
the other coin? Okay there, Now what shake the hat
to mix.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
The coin's thurday? Alright, that's enough. Now give me that hat, kire.
Now you and don concentrate on the date of the
coin you chose. I'll hold each coin to my power,
but until the vibrations from your minds tell me that
I'm holding the coin you chose. Nope, not this one. Uh,
(10:10):
this may be the right one. Now, isn't the right date?
Another coin?
Speaker 5 (10:17):
No?
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Not this one one? More?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Uh, I'm getting warmer. I'll take a look at this coin.
The date is nineteen thirty six, Am I right?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Right?
Speaker 4 (10:28):
Why yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Take the coins roller and now see if you can
figure it out. If you can't, I'll be back in
a moment to tell you.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
How Blackstone you do. I'm still puzzling over the coin trick. Blackstone.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Well you shouldn't be, Rhoda.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Why not.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Don't you remember how I solved the riddle of the
stolen medallion?
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Why?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yes, you notice that the dupic medallion was cold?
Speaker 4 (11:01):
What does that got to do with the coin trick?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I practically told you when I did the trick. Remember
what I said when I found the chosen coin?
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Yes, you said you were getting warmer.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
That's right, and I was getting warmer. I had just
found the warm coin in the head. Naw, I began
to get it.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
I'm not very bright, I guess, But don't you see?
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Rather, all the coins in the hat were cold at first, exactly,
But when Rhoda took one from the hat and handled it,
it began to warmer. And then you had her handed
to me, which made it still warmer.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
And the more people the easier the trick.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Absolutely, after you toss the coin back into the hat,
all I had to do was to take the coins
out one buy one until I felt a warm one.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Say.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
That's a swell trick, Blackstone. Easy to learn and easy
to do.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Anyone can try it right now, can't they?
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Of course they can.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
All they need is a handful of coins, pennies, nickels, dimes,
as long as.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
The dates are different. But here's a little hint to
go with it.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
With that, get the coins really cold first, set them
on a plate and put them in the ice chest.
Then when you go to get a bottle of your
favorite beverage, bring.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
The coins Backay.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I like that.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
The trick for the beverage.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
Ro both they seem they're go together perfectly.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Well, I hope you like that trick, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
And until next time, This is Blackstone saying good magic
and goodbye.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Be with us next time, when the world's greatest living
magician Blackstone tells us the story of the Underwater Death
and explains more tricks that you yourself can perform.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
