Harry Blackstone was a great showman. He had a long successful career and his son, Blackstone Junior, also became a magician. Blackstone, Senior inspired a comic book and a radio show, both titled Blackstone, Magic Detective.
Blackstone, Senior was known for a big stage show with lots of attractions. For his appearance at the Seattle Pantages in 1922, each day had a theme. Children would receive white rabbits at the Saturday matinee.
