More than 100 years ago, A.C. Gilbert graduated from Yale. Rather than practice medicine, for which he trained, he practiced magic. He founded the Mysto Magic Company with John Petrie. Gilbert went on to build Erector Sets and other learning toys, but he never lost his love for the discipline and art of magic.
