AFFADAVIT OF OATH:
OATH:
If accepted as a Member, I agree to do my best to elevate the Art of Magic and to abide by the
Constitution, By-laws, Code of Ethics and Ritual of the Society of American Magicians.
I shall endeavor to cooperate with the Society in the promotion of its objectives and to promote
harmony among those interested in magic and to advance the ethics of the profession.
I agree not to expose any modus operandi from stage, platform, television, radio or in any manner
whatsoever.
I am opposed to cheap literature wherein magical secrets are needlessly exposed, or to the sale of
professional magical effects in cheap miniature form to the public.
I am opposed to needless and useless explanations of secrets to persons who are not entitled to know
them or who are not interested in magic.
I am opposed to placing any legitimate performer in a predicament while that person is before an
audience.
