The smile on children's faces when the rabbit suddenly appears, they know that's magic. - It's my passion, it's my hobby, it's my vocation. It's everything to me. - Welcome to Colon, Michigan. - The magic capital of the world. - I am John Sterlini, the owner of Sterlini Magic Manufacturing. - My name is Rick Fisher, I'm the president and CEO of the Fab Magic company. - I am Greg Bordner, and I am the president of Abbott's Magic. I brought a good book with me, it's called the Bible. Sometimes there's some really cool parts in here. There's really some fire and brimstone. There are three magic shops in Colon, Michigan and we're about three blocks apart. - Directly next to me is Fab Magic and Abbott's Magic is located one block west of us. - [Greg] There's a lot of little things here in Colon. There are top hats in the street with flowers blooming in them. - We have one pizza parlor. We have two gas stations. - We only have one blinking light. - [John] We have a magician's walk of fame. - It's kinda like our very own Hollywood walk of fame. Our high school mascot is the Fighting Magi. - [Greg] There's the Magic City Hardware, there's Illusions Hair Care. - And we have three magic shops all in a town of 1,200 people. I'll share this with you, if Colon was any smaller they'd call it semicolon. Bad joke. Yes bad joke. - Abbott's Magic began doing the magic convention 80-some years ago. We've had thousands of magicians from around the world that gather here to learn, to share their knowledge of magic. - When you perform a magic trick and a little kid smiles, and he goes "wow,” and you can see the magic in his face, that's really the best part. - For that 15, 20 minutes, hour, you hopefully took that person from this world to this world. - I always said to my parents even as a young kid, "I'm gonna move up here one of these days "and I'm gonna own a magic shop". - [Voiceover] So dreams do come true. - They do come true.
