The problem with this kind of self-congratulatory performance style (especially the card manipulation stuff) is/was, it's so focussed on fast pace and "look how easily i can pull this off" that half of the time it isn't even clear what the actual effect was because it happens too fast. All that's left with the viewer is "he did some stuff with cards" or "he is really good with cards".

As a 12 year old, i saw him on a us TV show... that card round the body just stunned me...I remember it to this day.
Wow.... just panache and style...yes, timeless. Thank you.
I have been looking for this for years. Such polished class. Thanks for posting.
What a *timeless* piece! One of my faves next to Fred Kaps
RR linking rings is far superb and smooth. He has style, elegancy, and an angelic smile.
He was a great magician!
Grand prestidigitateur qui me faisait rêver étant enfant!

I didn't know Dick Cavette could do magic?
