Aldo Colombini and Cameron Francis, two friends with a common passion: Card Magic. This is the type of magic that can be worked anytime, anyplace.

Contents:

• YET (Aldo Colombini): A card is selected and it is seen to be the only different colored card. It disappears and reappears face up in the middle of the deck.

An effect by Paul Gordon performed by Aldo Colombini. You show some Jokers. The backs of the cards are red. One Joker with a big X on its back is placed among the cards and now all the cards have a big X on their backs. One card with a big O on its back is placed among the cards and now all the cards have big O’s on their backs. Finally, the cards are all back to normal. The big surprise comes when five cards are turned over and a letter appears on each card spelling the word MAGIC (or any other message, a Royal Flush, etc).

You will need five blank-faced cards.

A deck is shuffled. While the performer's back is turned, one spectator selects and remembers a card, which he then loses into the deck. No one knows where this card is. Its identity is known only to the spectator. Now, a second spectator merely thinks of a number. The performer mixes the cards further, and spreads them face up to show the cards to be completely mixed. The second spectator now, for the 1st time, reveals her thought of number. The spectator is handed the deck. She deals the cards one at a time until she reaches her thought of number. The card arrived at is the card being thought...

An uncanny demonstration of apparent thought-reading.

THREE SMASH HITS: You show a packet of cards (saying that it contains the four Queens) and leave it aside. You also show another packet of four cards and they are seen to be the four Queens. A spectator FREELY touches any card and this is revealed to be, say, the QC.

FIRST EFFECT: The QC is seen to be the only reversed card in the other packet.

SECOND EFFECT: This card has a red back, while the other three are blue-backed cards.

THIRD EFFECT: The three blue-backed cards are seen to have blank faces.

Easy to do. At the...

The routine is based on Frank Garcia's "Five-Card Stunner" but also on handlings by Ken de Courcy and Herb Rungay. It is perfect for stand-up performers (parlor or stage) with no table required. You show a black card (say the 9C) and four red cards. When the cards are fanned, there are only four and they are all red; the black card has vanished. You eliminate one red card and then you remove the missing black card from the pocket. Again the cards are shown and then fanned. There are three red cards; the black card vanishes for the second time. You eliminate another red card and remove the black...

More great magic of Nick Trost. All the routines are performed with a regular deck of cards.

CONTENTS:

• FOUR-WAY MATCH-UP: You lay four cards on the table. The spectator separates the deck into four packets and at the face of each packet he finds the matching cards of the previous four.
• THREE MATCHED PAIRS: A spectator picks three pairs while you deal cards and they are the only matching pairs of the packet.
• SUITS OF SYMPATHY: A stunning routine. You place the hearts cards in a glass. The Diamonds cards are shuffled by a spectator and they match the Hearts cards. Stunning.
• REPEAT ROYAL MARRIAGES:...

This is an amazing close-up trick which is a mystery to any audience. Two cards are selected from a deck of cards. You show several Jokers. One at a time, the Jokers turn over and during this process change one by one into duplicates of the first card. Then, all together they change into duplicates of the second selected card!

Requires two double faced cards.

You show five cards completely blank on both sides. A card is selected from a regular deck (say the QH). The same card appears on the face of every blank card. Then all the cards are blank again including the spectator’s selection; this card now re-appears face up in the middle of the deck!

Requires four cards blank on both sides, a blank-backed card and a blank-faced card.

An entertaining routine on the Cannibal Card theme. Several effects tied together to create the perfect 'cannibal card' routine ever. The cannibals appear, change 'clothes', capture victims, eat victims, eat each other and reappear!

Requires a double-backed card.

Ten routines with cards and coins.

CONTENTS:

• A BOOK IS BETTER (Aldo Colombini): A selected card vanishes from the deck and reappears in a book at a page randomly selected by a spectator. Easy to do. No palming.
• SHADES OF SILVER (Cameron Francis): An easy ‘shadow’ (assembly) coin routine using only four coins and your hands, with a backfire ending.
• COIN WRAP (Aldo Colombini): A card is selected and replaced. You try to produce the selected card but you fail. Then, you decide to do a coin trick. You perform a couple of very strong transpositions with a copper and a silver coin. At...

This is an unusual trick and one that creates mystery and surprise. It can also be customized according to the venues and type of shows. You show four double-blank cards. You place a colored sticker on one card and the sticker appears on every card. Then, three stickers disappear from the cards and all the stickers are on one card!

You will need four double blank cards (blank on both sides) and some stickers.

The effect was created by Peter Duffie. An effect which must give the impression that you are a fantastic card expert. Two cards are placed face up on the table. You now show four misprinted cards that have backs on both sides - except for one, which has a back and a blank face. You now add the first card to the packet and suddenly all the cards print with faces of the selection! You repeat this with the second card to cause all the cards to print to duplicates of this card! Finally you pick up the card with the blank face. "This," you state, "is an eraser!" You now prove this to be so because, suddenly,...

CONTENTS:

• ADD-ACADABRA: Two predictions. After a couple of gags, the predictions are shown correct.

From Val Andrews' introduction:

Three selected cards placed between two double-blank cards disappear one at a time leaving completely blank cards and reappear reversed in the middle of the deck!

Requires

• 3 double blank cards (blank on both sides)
• 1 double back card
• 3 blank backed cards (blank on one side, back on the other side)

Three great effects combined into a stunning routine.

HEAVY TRAFFIC: You place a prediction face down between two face-down Jacks. The prediction disappears. You try again placing the prediction face up between the two face-down Jacks and the prediction card vanishes once again. You place an 'invisible' prediction between the two Jacks. A spectator chooses a card, say the 7D. The Jacks are fanned and the invisible prediction has become visible. It is indeed the 7D!

SEIZE THE NIGHT: The two black Jacks capture the same amount of cards cut by a spectator and then capture a previously freely...
