Jacob TenderAfter 2 years off, I'm back to scanning slides taken by my grandfather. Today I found some pictures of fellow Ohio Bell phone company man, Don Tanner.Turns out, Don was an important guy in the world of professional magicians. He edited several trade publications and even wrote some books!Don passed away at 57, but his memory lives on at Magicpedia where there's now a face to go with his name. <a href="https://geniimagazine.com/wiki/index.php?title=Don_Tanner" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://geniimagazine.com/wiki/index.php?title=Don_Tanner</a><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/magicians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#magicians</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/magic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#magic</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ohio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ohio</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/columbus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#columbus</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#photography</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/portrait" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#portrait</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/genealogy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#genealogy</a>
