You Are Going to Relax. Begin By Making Yourself Perfectly Comfortable. Sit Down in Your Favorite Chair. As You Find Your Mind Relaxing ... Deeper ... And Deeper.

That title is the opening schpiel from hypnotist, illusionist and self-described impossiblist Reveen's aptly titled LP Relax with Reveen. Reveen was an Australian performer who toured Canada extensively for many decades and played Vegas constantly. He also released several LPs of helpful hypnotism to curb your smoking, over-eating and nervous tension. If you're a record collector, chances are you have some of his stuff in your home. Recently, the fine website Stupid Comics unearthed a rare one-off oddity - a Reveen comic book that showcases Reveen, his four bearded children, his bearded house and his bearded car. If that doesn't make immediate sense, follow the link and it will. Well, maybe not. Regardless, if you follow the link you will see a lot of bearded objects. The comic was a promotional give-away published in Montreal in 1965. Here it is!

I would like to be an Impossiblist as a career too. How do I get started?

Hell liz, that bad boy's going on my resume with a quickness. "Impossibilist". I like that. Is it required to look like the sasquatch tho?
