Professional magic shops in Europe?
 
I collect magical apparatus and am currently planning a trip to Europe (during which I will attempt to acquire some equipment (old or new). I realize this is a rather specialized area but do any of you remember seeing magic shops in Europe? Also, I know there is one across the street from the British Museum (or there used to be). Does anyone know the name of it?<BR><BR>Any and all information will be greatly appreciated.<BR><BR>M&M

Have you contacted the Magic Castle in Los Angeles to ask them your question? I'm not a prestidigitator (sp?), but couple years ago had opportunity to go there for Sunday brunch & afternoon magic shows. <BR><BR>

Thanks to both of you.<BR><BR>I actually have tried to contact the Magic Castle but only because I thought I still had contacts there. I guess I'll try again and just do a general inquiry.<BR><BR>Thanks again.

There's a museum of magic in Paris, with a "magicians-only" shop. I'm sure you can find it online.
