About the Bookmark
The "Bobo Bookmark" is a corner bookmark, meaning that it hugs on the top corner of the pages instead of sliding down the spine.
What makes the "Bobo Bookmark" completely unique among all bookmarks is that it has been modeled after Copeland Coin's wallets, allowing it to hold a coin or coins. This way, as soon as you open your favorite book, you will be ready to practice while reading!
Each wallet is rugged hand cut and handmade with golden stitches.
Available in five fantastic colors...Including Erdnase Green - a tribute to the color of the cover of the first edition of S. W. Erdnase's Expert at the Card Table.
How does it work?
Simply slip a half dozen or so page corners into the bookmark and close the book as you normally would. The 100% leather bookmark hangs on by friction and clearly marks your page on ANY favorite book.
Uniquely, you may also place a half dollar (or similar sized coin) in the slot under the Copeland Coins embossed logo to securely hold it by friction. You can also fit a dollar size (or larger) coin in the big flap against the pages!
About the New Book Cover
For the first time, Ever Elizalde, joins the Team of Copeland Coin's Contributing Artists...As a picture artist! Ever's brilliant drawing skills capture the amazement of J. B. Bobo live, like never seen before.
The fictitious cover art came from a Jeff Copeland idea of combining the two sides of Bobo's life long career. Among magicians, Bobo was known as a magician's magician. He could entertain the best minds and gathered praise and respect among his peers. But his day job, little known to most magicians, was a children's performer for public school assemblies!
Bobo was known to perform as many as 400 kids shows a year. That's right, 400 shows in one single year! He really knew how to pack, price, and deliver his shows to be one of the most prolific performers in all of history.
The New Copeland Coin's Exclusive Book Cover celebrates the life of J.B. Bobo and his dual performance career.
The back cover is a mock educational poster advertising Coin Magic Class while the inside flaps share quotes and favorite routines out of the book from some of today's greatest coin magicians!
The front cover is Bobo himself.
In the playful artwork, he is seen in coat and tails standing tall in his prime. Bobo performs mythical coin magic as if on stage for all magicians to witness. But in this final performance, he is at home in the hallway of an elementary school that grows dark. Bobo stands proud in the fading spot light created by sunlight through a school house window.
This will be a treasured piece to truly remember the life of this Great Performer. J.B. Bobo (1910-1996).
