Rock's show ended when the war started and he joined the Army.
This Will Rock magic show poster from the era he performed the show (1938 –1942).
Rock produced a few different posters that promoted the presentation of the "Cavalcade of Magic". He performed his show after purchasing Howard Thurston's, Harry Thurston's, and parts of Mysterious Smith's magic shows. The main image of Rock is complete on this one with the colors still vibrant. It shows some wear especially concentrated along the edges/corners. The poster is linen mounted and measures 21" x 27 3/4". The poster is in great condition for it's age. No restoration. You can see by the images, it looks great! And it is piece of magic history!
