April 17th Meeting

will feature

Richard Osterlind Lecture!

The April 17th meeting of IBM Ring 198 was scheduled

to be a lecture by Mr. Tango of Spain. Unfortunately Mr.

Tango’s lecture tour was canceled at the last minute.

Fortunately we were able to book Richard Osterlind to

lecture to our club for our April meeting!

Richard Osterlind is considered

by many to be the foremost

mentalist performing in the

English language today. His

unique mix of natural warmth

with an almost supernatural

ability to read thoughts, bend

metal objects with his mind, and

scores of other amazing demon-

strations has made him one of

the most sought-after corporate

entertainers in the world.

Richard Osterlind has 25 instructional DVDs on the mar-

ket (by your editors count!), more than 10 books, and

several accessories designed for the mentalist or magi-

cian. Despite all these instructional materials, Mr. Oster-

lind rarely lectures for magic clubs due to his full time

performing schedule. We are very lucky to have this

special lecture at our April meeting.

The Lecture will be gin at 2:30pm at our usual meeting

location, Gethsemane Lutheran Church on Garden

Springs Drive in Lexington. More details on the lecture

on included on the page 2 of this newsletter.

Richard Osterlind

has been a top cor-

porate performer for

over 40 years. He

has traveled around

the world entertain-

ing presidents,

heads of state, for-

eign dignitaries,

CEO executives,

sports figures,

newscasters and

audiences from eve-

ry walk of life. He

has become a leg-

end in the corporate

world.

His television per-

formances have also

been seen in the

United States and in many foreign countries. He has appeared in his own 10-week series, on Fox & Friends, a mul-

titude of talk shows, in 2 Japanese TV specials and in numerous television programs in Europe and Asia.

Behind the scenes, he has also been an advisor for David Copperfield, David Blaine, Paul Daniels and many other

top professional performers.

Richard has also become known as one of the leading teachers of Magic and Mentalism. With 26 videos and over

20 books to his credit, there is hardly a performer who has not been influenced by his work. His down-to-earth

manner of performing, coupled with his original, audience-tested methods, has made him a favorite in the eyes of

his peers. He has constantly shown his ability to take time-honored secrets and update them for the modern world

and his instructional materials have probably made more money for mystery performers than any other living in-

structor.

Richard has also contributed extensively over the years with his routines appearing in Bascom Jones’ Magick, The

Linking Ring, Magic Magazine, The Magic Menu, etc. and in countless works by other performers such as Para

Labs, Collector’s Workshop, Neal Scryer and others too numerous to count .

He has received countless honors including the Milbourne Christopher Award for Mentalism and MINDention’s

Lifetime Achievement Award.

Although he continues to keep a busy corporate touring schedule, he still finds time to do lectures and seminars for

his fellow performers. He has appeared at sold-out and SRO events throughout the United States and Canada as

well as in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, England, France and Italy.

This lecture will feature Richard demonstrating some of his classic routines with incredible insights into the rea-

soning behind the success of his award-winning material. You will not only learn how to effectively perform these

effects, but also how to create your own, original Magic and Mentalism.

For 2016, Richard will also be incorporating highlights from his new DVDs including Eerie, Intimate Impossibili-

ties, Sapphire Collection and the Annemann series.

Richard Osterlind’s lecture is for everyone, from the beginner to the professional and for magicians and mentalists

alike. This knowledge could be worth thousands of dollars for any performer!

Don’t miss it!
