"Opening Goldin does magic, small stuff while impersonating magicians known by fame in this and other countries. Goldin talks during these 'impersonations.'"
"For his return visit to America Goldin has not advanced in his vaudeville specialty of magic, disappearances, and illusions. In fact he has stepped backward. Goldin's greatest charm when he started for the top of the magicians' way was speed. He started, never stopped until finishing, and without talking. Now he's talking, jumbling everything in and out." "Twenty minutes of Horace Goldin and what he did on Hammerstein's Roof in that space of time are infinitely to be preferred to 50 minutes of Goldin with over half of it wasted."
