Dear
Roger: For some time I wanted to write you a few words. Hope you
are fine, as we are. I have gone back to show business full time
and pave been doing fine. Inclosed are a couple of photos from TV
shows in Mexico City. I thought you would be interested in putting
them in the Newsletter. The pictures were taken in Dec. 1970 and I
am sure they would be of interest as the tricks are my originals
and only executed by me.
In
the USA I have appeared under the names of "Maysay and
Brach", then "Labrac and Bernice'I,
As
you know my balance of the dollar bill and the ball point pen on
the nose is first done in a rock on the unicycle, then from there
I drive around. With a spinning plate on a stick balanced on

NELSON WRITES (2/22/71) "I
have just received my copy of the juggling news letter,
It
would seem to me that with the so-called talent involved in the
assoc., that members could be called upon to write articles
providing information for the novice.
Since
books on juggling are few and far between, an assoc. like this one
should accept the challenge of providing information, not useless

Sincerely Bruce H Nelson I also doubt very much if I would renew my membership, for the reasons mentioned." |
