The Royal Road to Card MagicJean Hugard & Fred BraueThe younger generation of card magicians probably knows or has heard of Card College by Roberto Giobbi.

Actually because Expert Card Technique did not sell well... | ★★★★★ $5 to wish list | |

The Red and Black ComputationKen de CourcyYou correctly guess how many red and black cards a spectator has casually put into four pockets with an unexpected climax. No skill required.

The magician asks the spectator to again... | ★★★★★ $5 to wish list | |

The Perfected Five Card TrickGeorge BlakeThis ebook teaches solutions to the following problem Rusduck posed in the late 1950s: Any deck used. Any five cards taken from it by a spectator, and any one of the five cards is set aside. The performer calls out the other four cards to an assistant in another room or to someone on the phone, and immediately the chosen card is named. Arguably the best rendition of this type of effect is the Bloom Miracle Poker Machine. These are very similar requirements to the Fitch Cheney Five-Card Trick. But they are not identical. In the Fitch Cheney trick the performer selects the one card out of the five given to him which his assistant needs to identify... | $10 to wish list | |

The Other Color MysteryGerard ZittaThis is a hands-off and impromptu card effect. This effect should be presented as a mental experience rather than a card trick. The patter could be around complementarity or duality. You can talk about Yin and Yang, Black and White, Heads and Tails, Male and Female, etc. At the end of your introduction, you explain that in a deck of cards, this is represented by the two colors RED and BLACK. A Spectator shuffles the cards and cuts it in two piles.
