A YOUNG BOY DISCOVERS
THE POWERFUL CAPE OF THE
GREATEST MAGICIAN WHO
EVER LIVED!
In a small town in Pennsylvania, 12-year-old Stanley Robeski buys an old cape which he incorporates into his magic act. He becomes a big hit when his mysterious cape elevates him to the auditorium ceiling, mystifying all at Pullman Elementary.
Later, Stanley learns that if properly energized the cape can soar. Secret instructions, however, warn that the cape is dangerous and erratic.
Further, foreign saboteurs arrive in town to confiscate the cape at any price--even murder. The Red Leader and his goon death squad are soon on the innocent boys' trail.
Join Stanley in his great adventure!
