Abstract

The historical lack of interaction between IP regulation and the magic profession has entered a new chapter following the ground-breaking judgment in the US case of Teller v Dogge. Whilst there has been much commentary about the decision in the US, it has received little attention in the UK. This article therefore explores UK copyright protection for magic tricks and investigates the important question of how magic should be protected.
