When I was about 19 I started attending some of the local magic clubs in the inland empire. Skipper Frank was often at the elsinore club. By that time, he was really old and mostly deaf. He lived in the oceanside or upper san diego area as I remember.

My dad thought it was super cool because here was a guy he watched on tv as a kid...

I know I have some pics of a me with Skipper frank performing on the same show in a vfw hall or something of the like...

By the time he passed, I had stopped going to the clubs and was traveling a lot doing magic...especially over seas.

If you want a few names to contact in your area of magic collectors I could probably get you a few.
