Fund Raising School ShowsBrian T. LeesA very strong market for magicians is fund raising through the school system. The chance of hosting a "no cost, no risk" fund raiser can be one of the highest demand performances a magician can do. This is a minimum administration, short term event that can bring in substantial amounts of money for both the school and the magician. A no cost, no risk magic show translates into a two or three-week event that ends in deposit. This text is a primer to get you into the school shows market. Begin with the high schools and let the referrals lead you in other directions onto new customers. | $10 to wish list | |

Five Easy PiecesJon RacherbaumerThe five easy "pieces" in this manuscript are relatively easy to do. The important aspect, however, is how they are combined. The tricks are not the tricky part.

One should not then equate plans, schemes, or sets of instructions with hale and hearty presentations. This is the reason the extended presentation in this manuscript surpasses mere exposition. Besides explaining the action steps of five otherwise grab-bag tricks, it reveals how they have... | ★★★★★ $10 to wish list | |
