From the Forward by David Ginn… "AT LONG, LONG LAST - here we are with the Color Changing Lighter book! It seems to me as though this book has been forever coming, but finally you can see some of the many things magical that you can do with Fantasio's Color Changing Lighter, whether you work it close-up or on stage. The variety of effects I personally find intriguing, for you can do so many unusual things with this little gimmick."

Fantasio
(1936 - )
Born Richard Roucau in Buenos Aires, Argentina, he named himself Fantasio in 1961, when he joined the Círculo Mágico Argentino in Buenos Aires.
In July 1976, Fantasio -after 17 years on the professional stage- left show business. The second portion of his life then began. It was dedicated to creating, rnanufacturing and selling magic, especially the plastic candles and canes used in so much of his magic.
