You remember how I was asking if anyone knew about 'The Merlin Awards' a little while ago?
Judging from the lack of response, I don't think many people out there know much about them either. But thanks to the December issue of MAGIC Magazine, the mystery has been solved!
On page 85 The International Magicians Society has taken out a full page ad on behalf of it's 37,000 members to congratulate the winners of this year's Merlin Awards.
And the winners are........

But were there other winners who didn't appear in the ad, but maybe these have won next year's prizes...?
