A Brief History
Emmett Owen

Owen Magic Supreme can trace its roots to a June 1891 advertisement in Mahatma magazine by Floyd Thayer. In the August 1902 edition Floyd placed another ad, offering for sale the Wand of the West.

During the fall of 1913 Carl Owen entered the firm, and was later joined by his brother Emmett. When Floyd Thayer divided the firm in 1933 the Owen brothers purchased Thayer Manufacturing and absorbed other companies, the better known of these being Merv Taylor Magic.

Les and Gertrude Smith acquired Owen Magic in 1963 and each passing year has seen the Owen name grow in recognition throughout the world. Many of the well known names in magic have passed through our doors, for your own tour click here.
