There is a second magic store in Colon, Michigan and its addition only increases the attraction of the small hamlet to Magicians like you and me. Rick and Cheryl Fisher have teamed up with Percy Abbott?s daughter, Marilyn, to open the shop of their dreams. On a chilly Saturday, we loaded the Inside Magic Limo and headed east from Mystic Hollow towards the Southwestern corner of the Michigan and just north of the Indiana line. The following is a review of the exciting developments in the Magic Capital of the World that should fortify the village?s claim to that title.

I know I drive my family crazy by insisting that we stop off in Colon during virtually any trip from Mystic Hollow to Chicago, Notre Dame, Shipshewana or even just for a leisurely drive about four hours out of our way. That?s the kind of magnetic attraction the town has for me and maybe you.
Well, the town is even more attractive now with the addition of a second magic shop for our considered attention.
Just about a block and a half to the west of Percy Abbott’s first shop over what was once the A & P Grocery Store and a block and a half north east of the current Abbott Magic Company showroom in bucolic Colon, Michigan, Rick and Cheryl Fisher, and Marilyn Abbott (daughter of Percy) have opened their FAB Magic Shop.
It is fitting that the Magic Capital of the World would have more than one great magic emporium. Mr. Fisher remembers visiting the true Mecca of magic, Abbott’s, as a young man and his fascination for their magic and their place in magic hasn’t changed much since those first visits.
Like Abbott’s, much of FAB’s trade comes by mail order ? the walk-in traffic on a cold December afternoon is understandably light to non-existent. Colon is about 17 miles from the nearest major interstate highway, I-69, and it is well-off even the major roads that feed the highway systems. Just to the south of the beautiful hamlet
