- Vernons Silhouette studio - The Genii Forum
On more than one occasion, he mentioned that Dai Vernon and Larry Grey had a studio in Manhattan where they would cut silhouettes for walk-ins As you might guess, the studio became a hangout for magicians, so much so that Vernon would work in a back room and have staff up front come get him if a magician came in who was worth talking to

- A Taxonomy of Magicians - Page 2 - The Genii Forum
I'm afraid I always thought he earned his money from silhouette cutting (I'll need to update my blog post) There's also a common narrative within magic circles that he was an amateur (perhaps some of this stems from ignorance, as in my case, or jealousy from fellow performers who wanted the same level of success but failed to achieve it)
