One of the earliest posters for this team of Asian illusionists that casts its advertising magic courtesy of a 2-sheet split image, each half illustrating several of the performed tricks by the Fak Hongs, with continuity provided by the smoldering fumes emanating from the cauldron at bottom. And what an array of mystical–and frequently disembodied–deceptions the audience must have been in for, not to mention the fact that the performers are surrounded by practically every imaginable associative clichÈ from the world of the black arts–the Grim Reaper, dragons, devils, skulls, serpents and exotic birds, just for a pinch of Far Eastern flair. Rare!
