Modern Miracles in MagicRichard W. G. Van RayNo matter if you're an amateur, semi-pro, or make your living from magic, there's gold in this ebook for performers of every ilk. Seventeen effects in all are included, ranging from card tricks to mental tests, to geek magic (such as you'd find in a carnival sideshow) and even a full-fledged illusion!
In the "Hammered Nails" effect, members of the audience are invited to drive several spikes or large nails into a trio of wooden boards with a sledgehammer. One of the boards is selected, and the performer - with his bare hands - pulls out the spike. This is "geek" magic at its best and an effect... | ★★★★★ $8 to wish listPDF |
Phenomenal ESP PerceptionBob Tripp & Robert A. Nelson A masterful presentation of Extra Sensory Perception wherein five different spectators prove their psychic ability.
EFFECT: Five different Jumbo ESP symbol cards are exhibited, and one card each is sealed in a large manila envelope. The envelopes are mixed, so the whereabouts of any given symbol is unknown.

Spectator's names are each written on an envelope, and their selection is recorded beside their name on a large white board or easel-mounted display card.

The Secrets of Doctor "A"Robert A. Nelson"Dr. A" was a real-life figure, having devoted 33 years of his life as a very successful office reader and clairvoyant. He gave Robert Nelson full permission to publish his unique secrets, however he requested that he remain anonymous.
He devised, created and used what Nelson regarded as one of the finest - if not the finest - methods of giving private readings and (apparently) reading the minds of others.
The system described is so subtle and versatile that Dr. "A" and Nelson both were able to give thought-staggering readings and demonstrations under the most adverse of conditions, whether... | ★★★★★ $10 to wish listPDF |

With the Eyes of Dr. ReeseRobert A. NelsonHere is a miraculous, "test conditions" billet reading method that is both fiendishly clever and imminently practical. Leave it to the fertile brain of Bob Nelson to develop a billet test as good as this!
The sitter writes any question on a slip of paper and folds it tightly. She drops this into a glass tumbler. Sitter then takes her own handkerchief and places same over mouth of glass. A rubber band is used to snap around the edge of glass, holding the handkerchief in place.
The glass, containing the spectator's billet, is left standing on a table throughout the test. The performer picks... | ★★★★★ $6 to wish listPDF |
The Mysteries of the SeanceunknownThe "tell-all" book that reveals the innermost secrets of "office" and seance mediums!
These are the very methods used by fraudulent spirit mediums to bilk the innocent public. Because this ebook lays bare the actual methods, the author chose to be anonymous, for fear of reprisals by crooked mediums and their followers. You'll learn the secrets of "Blood writing" (as sold by The Nelson Enterprises), ghostly apparitions, spirit slate writing, seance exhibitions, ballot tests, and many, many other pseudo-mediumistic stunts.

Mystery of the Gyrating TablesRobert A. NelsonIn this eBook, Bob Nelson reveals his Mystery of the Gyrating Tables presentation, complete with opening lecture.
This effect certainly belongs in the realm of the psychic. Present it as an example of spirit phenomena, inject a little showmanship, and, as Nelson says, you'll "skyrocket to fame."
Using ordinary, unprepared tables and no apparatus whatsoever, the tables will tip, teeter, wobble and gyrate around the room or stage in the craziest fashion. And this despite the medium not even seated at the table with the participants! No stooges or confederates are employed at any time.

Sensational EffectsRobert A. NelsonThe most sensational release of the mentalist's closest guarded secrets. A choice collection of ultra-sensational effects that will not only puzzle the layman, but will baffle the mindreading profession as well.
Nelson has released a number of these closely guarded effects under one cover.

Tricks for the FewLance CharlesHere's a terrific book containing ten tricks, using cards, a magic wand, rope, and other items associated with the magic arts. Most of the effects require no special apparatus. What little is needed can easily be constructed. We think modern performers will really enjoy the card rise, where the action takes place with a borrowed deck! Also of interest will be "Through the Five-Spot," which is an impossible solid-through-solid effect where a five of spades visibly melts through the center of the magician's wand.
We've especially had fun performing the ball bearing mental test, which is a great... | $3 to wish listPDF |
Effervescent EffectsJulius HopkinsHere's a book that belongs on every magician's digital shelf. Inside you'll find 48 effects, tips and suggestions for close-up and club performers.
One of our favorites is the "Ring and Balloon Problem," as we can see it being used to win bar bets. Especially if you use an engagement or wedding patter story with your spectator. "Dollar Discernment" is also exceptionally clever as a mental test. We believe entertainers will make great use of it for those situations where they are asked to perform and have no props with them. Good stuff.
