However he was never able to get close to two of the best, Dai Vernon or Sam Horowitz. So McGuire got close to a magician both men admired, Max Malini, and through clever use of his association with Malini got to Horowitz.

However he was never able to get close to two of the best, Dai Vernon or Sam Horowitz.
