How-to feature on magic tricks. Previous indexer credited Fred Schwab but Ed Wood worked on this feature and was credited on it in other issues, and the art doesn't look like Schwab.

Indexer Notes

Mostly art contributions from readers. Ed Wood is the contact person at Centaur for this feature. Not sure if the large drawing of a rather crazed-looking artist on page one is by him or not.
