Does anyone know where to buy a performance video of Fantasio's famous manipulation act ?

Are there any online clips of Fantasio ?

A very young Fantasio performs on Ed Sullivan in an easily available DVD "The Beatles on Ed Sullivan." It's not the wizard's shining hour - he fluffs a move or two in his dove act.

Yes, he's still alive and is performing. He has a comic character now.

Oh, if they play Ed Sullivan reruns (they do here on Sunday nights on the local PBS station), Fantasio will eventually show up. I've tuned in on 2 occasions and have seen him there. Or, get a tivo and just set a season pass. I've also seen Fred Kaps and Channing Pollack on these shows.

I was four when I saw Fantasio and Monica
I believe was his wife's name work.

Now supposedly there is a video from the
"world greated magic show" tour of 1979
when they were our hosts in Bueanos Aries.
I've been trying to get my hands on it
for about 7 years now. It also has
Dick Zimmerman and Diana, Richard Ross,
Ali Bongo and other. Me included even if
I was only four.

My dad knew Fantasio way back and he said
that he used to go under a different
name previous to Fantasio but I can't
remember offhand.
you will remember my name
