Edward G. Brown
Edward G. Brown (1893-1947) was an English magician who has been written about twice: The Card Magic of Edward G. Brown by Trevor Hall (1973) and Edward G. Brown; A Magical Life by Paul Gordon (2005).
Brown's magic inspired all sorts of magicians from Dai Vernon (see The Chronicles) to Larry Jennings (see Impossible from Apocalypse, Vol. 18, N° 9, sept. 1995, page 2550 by Tom Daugherty and compare with Brown's 1945 trick, The Three Pile Trick) See, also, Tom Ransom's Brown Study from Ibidem N° 5, april 1956, page 83.
Alex Elmsley was another to be inspired by Brown's work as has been Paul Gordon.
