This is the grave of Richiardi Sr. He was a Peruvian magician and the father to the famed Richiardi Jr.. He claimed that his father too was a magician. But it appears that his first job in the magic world was working as an assistant and builder for Ricardo Richardine Sr..
Richiardi Sr was killed in Atlanta Georgia 1937 in a car accident while on tour in the United States.
The grave is located in Greenwood Cemetery Atlanta, Georgia.

His articles on magic history have been featured in magazine and his book Cardini: The Suave Deceiver has received incredible praise by reviewers all over the magic world. His latest book on Richiardi Jr. is due out in 2011. To learn more about Levent Cimkentli, go to www.leventmagic.com
