Magician's Guild was started around 1942 with the slogan: "For good entertainment, demand a Magician".

One of the first goals of the Guild was to bring live magic shows to Broadway, which was realized on January 21, 1945 with "Mystery Time" at the Bealsco Theatre. The show included Cardini, Hardeen, Al Flosso and others.

The Guild was one of the first groups to introduce regular magic lectures.

The Conjurors' Magazine was the first official organ for the group until it merged with Genii. In 1981, they selected Legerdemain.
