This is the most beautiful magic book ever published! I know, this is a pretty strong claim, but read on and judge for yourself.

"I've just had a chance to spend a couple of hours with this book. Wow, Chris. This is an amazing book. Not only does it look incredible, it is of immense historic value." - Ben Harris

"A terrific work, a must have for anybody who thinks of him- or herself as a magician." - Max M.

Before I tell you why I am convinced this is the most beautiful magic book ever published, allow me to give you a bit of history on how this book came to be.

In 1954 Claude Klingsor...

This is a marvelous compilation of mostly easy and sleightless, or as it is usually called self-working, card tricks. Some effects do require moves such as palming, and a good false shuffle and false cut will go a long way to make many otherwise sleightless effects much stronger. But for the most part no sleights are necessary to perform the vast majority of effects taught.

From the Introduction:

The intentionally unassuming grey cover, designed to match the dull-sounding title, suggests a dry emotionless record of events is likely held within. However, this humble exterior belies the valuable secrets hidden within its pages. Annals of Gaming was an article series published over four years, between 1772 and 1775; its sole intention was to expose the sharpers, hustlers, and cheats, by detailing their methods of defrauding the unwary. Now, for the first time, every article in the original series has been retyped in full and published in a single volume of over 200 pages. This work covers over...

Who would have thought the US Armed Forces had a magicians association? The association was started by Opie Houston, then an Air Force Sergeant. At Ease was the organ of the Armed Forces Magicians Association. It ran from July 1966 until January 1975, but it had some gaps here and there and was not released on a particularly regular schedule.

Some of the trick contributors were Opie R. Houston, William E. Clover, Erwin M. Storke, Vernon Weiss, Bob Ford, Don Guilmain, Dave Richards, Harvey Turner, Kent Cummins, Ed Middleton, Prince Kazar, Jim Williams, Chas Crowley, John Guthrie, Arthur...

The Magical World is one of the few weekly periodicals in magic. This periodical ran from November 1910 until May 1911 and was edited by Max Sterling. Volume one contained 26 issues and volume two ended the series with No. 3 - a total of more than 470 pages.

For the continuation of this periodical see the second series.

A sleight-of-hand reference work for cards, coins, billiard balls, and thimbles.

Magic without Apparatus is the first English translation of La Prestidigitation sans Appareils, which has been recognized by authorities on magic as the world's greatest treatise on legerdemain with cards, coins, billiard balls, and thimbles. The French edition elicited such comments as these:

Leo Rullman (Connoisseur of magical literature): "The greatest work on pure sleight-of-hand in any language."

Professor Hoffmann (Author of Modern Magic, More Magic, Later Magic): "A contribution of the first rank to the literature...

Max Sterling discontinued his weekly magic journal The Magical World in May 1911. After two years he restarted it for another period less than a year long. This second series from June 14th, 1913 until February 4th, 1914, is included in this PDF, 582 pages. It is not easy to publish a weekly conjuring periodical.

The ebook starts with a strange story, a neuroscience-biology lesson, and an unconventional cunning opener; the cunning in which lies in our body's response to this opener as we explore the how and why of "exploiting" our natural biology. An underlining theme in this book is about setting ourselves apart from other performers, disguising our methods, and breaking down preconceived beliefs - and that is exactly what this opener, which requires strong audience management, does.

This is the explosive double drawing duplication and energetic surprise kicker...

Dr. Samuel Cox Hooker's Rising Cards have been an unexplainable fascination for nearly a century. Hooker first showed his effect in 1914, and in 1993 and 2007 John Gaughan gave abbreviated performances. Nobody who has seen the Hooker Rising Cards performed has ever been able to explain how such effects can be accomplished. This includes the most notable and most knowledgeable magicians from past and present. How can, from a borrowed and shuffled deck, any card called for rise in the fairest possible manner on a well lit stage only a few feet from the spectators?

This work is not just about...

The New Pentagram Magazine appeared from 1969 to 1989 - over 2000 pages. This amazing magazine followed in the footsteps of Pentagram Magazine which had been published first by Peter Warlock and then was backed by The Magic Wand publishing company. Supreme Magic then backed and helped Peter to continue the original magazine but under the name of New Pentagram. And it ran for twenty years.

This wonderful magazine was packed with contributions from some of the leading names from magical history. Ted Danson's diary effect first appeared in its pages. Here, taken at random, are some of the top names who wrote...

These are all seven volumes in the series.

This seven-volume series is probably the longest and most detailed audio-testimonial of a famous magician. Each of the recordings can be heard individually; if purchased and listened to in sequence they quite clearly form a complete course of magic for anyone with or without experience. Billy has worked everywhere and with most kinds of magic. What he relates on these tapes is the result of a lifetime of experience in magic. Invaluable lessons are taught. Each volume lasts around 90 minutes each (more than 10 hours in total) describing not only the...

Vor etwa 40 Jahren begann Astor mit der Veröffentlichung seiner größten Geheimnisse in zehn einzelnen Manuskripten, die insgesamt 170 Euro kosteten und nur gegen eine ehrenwörtliche Schweigeerklärung zu erhalten waren. Insgesamt waren davon nur 150 Exemplare im Umlauf.

Die von Astor beschriebenen Ausnahmekunststücke sind nun als ebook zu erhalten. Auch heute noch haben diese Kunststücke nichts von ihrer Wirkung auf das Publikum verloren:

• MIRACLE GAME: Ein rätselhaftes mentales Mühlespiel mit Spielkarten. ...

"Just watched Q&A Evolution again. Man, is it packed with subtleties and insights from someone who has been doing Q&A for 20 years. Also made up a set of the Evolution cards and have been practicing the moves. It doesn't take long at all to get the moves down smoothly. Everything takes place in your hands, right in front of the audience. And in the case of a one-on-one reading, literally right under their noses. The combination of the Q&A Evolution System cards and the readings framework Scott teaches allows you to do unique, one-on-one readings for one person, or many. The more I work with...

Sync is the perfect method for guessing a name completely prop-less.

I recently went back to my notebooks to an older idea I had for guessing a name without the spectator ever having to say a word and after a few days of playing with scripting all of the pieces of the jigsaw finally fell into place.

It is now possible to guess any name or word thought of by the spectator without them ever having to name letters or words associated with letters from the name - in fact, they can stay completely silent throughout the entire process.

The method itself is pure simplicity and is possibly...
