Several big names in magic reveal their favorite tricks in this unique book.
Features effects by Bill Neff - Al Baker - Stewart Judah - Tom Bowyer - Ellis Stanyon - Al Saal - Howard Albright - Art Brandon - Herbert Hicks - Jake Stafford - Lionel Walker - Art Monroe - and Frank Lane.
The magic of each artist is described as if you are seeing it performed on stage, with Frank Lane acting as your master of ceremonies.
Then, each performer explains how their trick was accomplished, just as if you'd been invited to a lecture at a magic convention.
While all the magic is captivating, we especially like the Bill Neff Egg Routine. It's hilariously funny for adults and children alike. Another one that's worth mentioning is the coin in bottle trick that doesn't use a folding coin!
Even if offered at $100 in a dealer catalog, you'd still feel that this collection of effects was priced far below the entertainment value it produces.
"Clever. You can use the effects here. Baker's, Neff's, Judah's and Walker's are especially good." - Max Holden
"Written in breezy style, the book is well worth having." - George Johnson
