Speeding Bullets by Jon Racherbaumer

A survey of the seven-card assembly.

This ebook is a survey of the Seven-Card Assembly, a subcategory of Ace Assembly. Its name due to the number (7) of principal cards used, which makes it different from other Ace Assemblies. Standard versions use sixteen cards - four Aces and twelve X-cards - and when the preliminary layout is made, the Aces are dealt into a T-formation and three X-cards are placed onto each Ace. In a Seven-Card Assembly three X-cards are added onto only three of the Aces. The Leader Ace lies alone. This reduces the duration it takes to set the stage. Then the four Aces come together magically.

I am a hobbyist, just retired, but I performed extensively in my twenties. This is a typical Racherbaumer book with a complete look at the seven-card assembly. The book includes many items by two of my favorites, Marlo and Steve Reynolds.

My rating is lowered because about fifty figures and photos are referenced in the text but not included. However, I have been able to figure out the workings of these items without too much trouble.
