Ring 29 would not be the same if it was not for the existence of Mr. Magic and Novelties and its owner retired Fire Chief Jim Henson. In the age of the Internet it's becoming harder to find actual Brick & Mortar magic stores. Jim carries one of the most extensive collection of magic tricks, books, dvds, to be found anywhere (not to mention at least five different types of fake dog poop).
What makes the store so special is not just the magic. It acts as an informal gathering place for magicians to meet and mingle. You also have the added benefit of getting advice on magic tricks and see them demonstrated.
Jim is well known in the magic community and has been key in bringing the International Brotherhood of Magicians convention to Little Rock twice.
So stop by, see what's new in magic, or just sit down and visit. If Jim doesn't have it, he can get it. Don't buy magic on the internet. Keep your dollars in Arkansas and support a business that supports the Art of Magic here in Little Rock.
This is where the
Art of Magic lives.
