 British Pathe, produced short news reels in the UK from 1896 through to 1970, they have now released their entire 3,500 hours of material onto their website.
They covered a number of magic related items which you can now view on the site. Clips from the Magic Circle, The International Brotherhood of Magicians Meeting in Hastings in 1960, and most interestingly very early footage of June McComb, wife of Billy McComb doing her magic act.
