The Art of Mentalism 1Bob Cassidy
"Art," according to Webster's New World Dictionary, is the human ability to make things - the creativity of man as distinguished from the world of nature. It is set apart from "craft" in that the latter applies to a lesser skill involving little or no creative thought.
The performance of mentalism is necessarily a creative process. To be successful the performer must tailor each presentation - not only to a particular audience but to the individual volunteers he uses in his program. No two performances of a mentalist are exactly the same. He must always be ready to capitalize on unexpected... | ★★★★★ $25 to wish listPDF |

Ipnosi da Scena - la vera arteBob Cassidy La serie italiana di Bob Cassidy, a cura di Matteo Filippini, continua con un libro molto importante della produzione del Master Mind Reader: “Ipnosi da Scena - La Vera Arte” .
L’ipnosi dimostrativa e da scena, oggi tanto di moda, analizzata da un autentico colosso del mentalimo internazionale, Mr Bob Cassidy!
“Ipnosi da Scena - La Vera Arte” svela i fondamenti per una dimostrazione ipnotica di successo e lo fa in modo diverso rispetto ad altri lavori del genere. Ad esempio, molti altri scritti sull’ipnosi da scena iniziano spiegando cosa sia l’ipnosi, fornendo poi delle... | $25 to wish listPDF & MP3 |
Il Libro Nero del MentalismoBob Cassidy A Joseph Dunninger è stato spesso attribuito il merito di aver detto: "Ogni volta che si aggiunge un oggetto di scena al vostro spettacolo, il vostro cachet diminuisce". Il suo ragionamento dovrebbe essere ovvio - ogni orpello aggiuntivo indebolisce l'illusione di ciò che appare come "vera lettura della mente". E, come Bob ha fatto notare molte volte nei suoi precedenti lavori, anche ogni ulteriore forma di mentalismo che viene dimostrato (telepatia, precognizione, psicocinesi, chiaroveggenza, ecc). Recentemente un "mentalista" ha sfidato Bob su tale punto: "Quanto è divertente dimostrare... | $25 to wish listPDF |
Un Viaje por la Cuarta DimensiónBob Cassidy Como Bob Cassidy escribe, quizás el "Viaje por la cuarta dimensión", basado en una invención de Theodore Annemann, sea uno de los mejores efectos de todos los tiempos: tres espectadores escriben otras tantas informaciones que nadie más puede conocer y sellan sus papeles en sendos sobres. El mentalista, mediante su concentración, es capaz de leerles la mente sin fallar. Y, por primera vez en este efecto, todos se pueden llevar sus papeles a casa de recuerdo si quieren.
Este libro es posiblemente el más completo en la materia: el estudio en profundidad incluye la historia del efecto y... | $35 to wish listPDF |
Destrezza nel MentalismoBob Cassidy Dall'introduzione del libro:
"Perciò che mi riguarda la destrezza di mano (o qualsiasi altro altro artificio del genere) ha un solo scopo: stabilire con convinzione una falsa premessa che ritengo essere il fondamento di tutte le illusioni e gli inganni convincenti. Più tale premessa viene stabilita in modo convincente, più incredibile apparirà di conseguenza l'effetto.
Le sottigliezze e gli approcci psicologici del mentalismo possono, quando arricchite dalla destrezza di mano, fornire immediatezza e chiarezza all'effetto che, così spesso, manca nelle routine mentali. Il fatto che... | $25 to wish listPDF & MP4 |

Tecniche con L'unghia ScriventeBob Cassidy Lo "Swami Gimmick" conosciuto anche come "Nail Writer", "Thumb Writer", "Ghost Writer" e "Medium's Secret Device" è stato spesso considerato come uno dei dispositivi più utili di tutto il mentalismo. E lo è di sicuro, ammesso che nessuno sappia che il mentalista ne stia facendo uso.
Sebbene l’esistenza dello Swami sia ampiamente nota, pochissimi performers lo usano davvero regolarmente e ancora di meno hanno imparato ad usarlo a regola d’arte.
Usato a dovere, anche coloro che hanno sentito parlare di unghia scrivente (o “quel pezzetto di mina sotto l’unghia del pollice”)... | $25 to wish listPDF |

The Messing EffectBob Cassidy Wolf Messing (1899 -1974) is often said to have been the most talented mind reader in the world. A native of Poland, Messing moved to Russia just prior to the outbreak of World War II. His decision to emigrate followed a performance, during which he predicted that Germany would be defeated and Hitler would die if Poland were invaded. Hitler, a devout believer in psychic phenomena, showed his appreciation for Messing's psychic gifts by placing a bounty of 200,000 marks on his head. After the war he worked for many years as a performer, and it has been suggested that he was one of Josef Stalin's... | ★★★★★ $50 to wish listPDF |

next exhibits the “Hand” disk with the darkened edge and the sticker on the back. The
spectator is asked to write a number, a short word, or a small picture on the back of the
“hand” disk (on the sticker). This is done while the performer’s back is turned. The
“hand” disk is turned face down, hiding the writing, and the disk is sandwiched between
the face-up owls. (The darkened edged of the “hand” disk subtly proves that the “hand”

With typical Cassidy genius one bottle allows you to glimpse colored marbles dropped in and the other bottle allows you to force a certain color of marble dispensed from the bottle. This opens the possibility for many routines. Bob describes two.

The method used in Puzzled is completely original with Bob Cassidy. It is based on an "out-of-left-field logical disconnect" that will positively fool anyone who sees it.
The premise of the effect was created by the late English mentalist, Romark, back in the 1970's. A few years ago there was a minor hissy fit in the magic world about the creation and ownership of a jigsaw puzzle effect involving an image of the Mona Lisa.
