Ricky Jay recalls the man he considers one of the greatest sleight-of-hand artists. "If I had never seen him do magic he'd be the most remarkable person I ever met," say Ricky Jay of his friend and mentor, the magician Dai Vernon (1894 -1992), also known as "Professor." A remarkable observer is one way Ricky Jay describes the sleight of hand artist, whose lifetime spanned a century. This is a film outtake from Ricky Jay: Deceptive Practice premieres Friday, January 23 at 9 pm on PBS.
