JACK GWYNNE: THE MAN, HIS MIND, AND HIS "ROYAL FAMILY OF MAGIC" by David Charvet was published in limited hardback edition of 300 copies in December 1986. It quickly sold out. The book not only chronicles Gwynne's highly successful career in vaudeville, film and theaters, but details many of his originations, such as his popular "flip over dove vanish", "vanishing rooster", "stack of fishbowls production", "Temple of Angee" and other illusions.
