Hen Fetsch

From MagicPedia

Henry Nicolas Fetsch (1912 - 1961), a boyhood friend of Milbourne Christopher, was a prolific inventor of magic.

While working during the day for the Baltimore Gas and Electric Company, Fetsch created numerous tricks like Silk Epic, Rope Epic and Mental Epic. He also invented many magic effect with his partner Gene Gordon.

His "Rope Session with Hen Fetsch" (England, 1954) and "Quad Ropelets" routine (USA, 1955) became the inspiration for the classic Professor's Nightmare effect.
