Talk:Henry Gordon (magician)

Rewriting page

Hello all - I've been fussing on this page and really want to reorganize it. I've contacted CFI who have the Gordon archives and they will in time upload photos for use on this page. I've also been reading some of Gordon's work, and this Wikipedia page does not do this man justice. The problem is that everything was pre-Internet and I doubt much still exists. His columns are in his book, but that's about it. I did find in his writings that Gordon has video of most every show he was on. I'm hoping that those were all given to CFI when they also received his books. We shall see, but I would like to get the videos made into MP3 so we can upload to WMC. So before I complete any more work on this page, I want to reorganize using the template as it is so much neater to edit with. Please give me a couple days to put that in order before making changes.

Wow that took me longer than I expected to finish. I found a lot in Newspapers.com and I contacted CFI who will upload photos when the are able to get back in the office. But this is where I am at the moment, I'm still looking for videos. Sgerbic (talk) 02:00, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

Photo's needed

I have seen some really excellent photos of Gordon used in newspapers and articles, but can not find free-use images. There are NO videos of him speaking or preforming. It's just odd that this very interesting, public and prolific man has left so little as far as his presence (other than the newspaper column he wrote) I have contacted CFI and people I know who could have known Gordon and all I got were these two photos. I've sent a letter to one of Gordon's daughters but didn't hear back. Any help would be appreciated Sgerbic (talk) 01:26, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
