TheWizards Trophy The New Wizards Trophy--the magical equivalent of an Oscar, with 14-carat gold plating and white gold plating (silver) --is a true hand-made trophy any proud magician would love to have. This trophy is now being offered to all magical fraternities. For full information regarding the Wizards Trophies, call Leroy Goodenough 1.530.295.3477 or majician@comcast.net Wizards Trophy History In 1995 there were a few discussions regarding the fact that no significant trophies were given to the contest winners or to a magician for special recognition. The ones given in the past had been cheap lit- tle card fans or some non-magical units given as trophies. So Leroy Goodenough of the Society of American Magicians Assembly 112 decided that he could make a nice hand-made Wizards Trophy. A set of high standards was required and had to be met in order to win a Wizards Trophy. It became a tradition for S.A.M. #112, and it was an honor to win and be presented with a Wizards Trophy. In 1996 the first Wizards Trophy was awarded to Stan Jacobson. Other winners followed. Society of American Magicians Mt. Diablo Assembly 112
