The Stripper Deck: Miracle Methods No. 1Jean Hugard & Fred Braue The Stripper Deck has nothing to do with a girl shedding off her clothes, but rather is a specially gaffed deck. However, the gaff or preparation is not noticeable with the naked eye. It can even be handed out to spectators for shuffling and cutting. This manuscript outlines various moves as well as tricks with the Stripper Deck. Practically all effects can be achieved with pure sleight of hand using an unprepared deck. But the Stripper Deck simplifies the handling and makes miracles possible without difficult moves, leaving you time to focus on the presentation.

The Invisible PassJean Hugard & Fred Braue It is supposedly the first book devoted to a single sleight - beautifully layed out with photos as well as drawings off all stages of the invisible pass. A detailed and thorough explanation of this form of the pass. The pass is a difficult move. Many books barely scratch the surface when they try to teach a shift or pass. This book is entirely devoted to a single move and leaves no open questions.
In a letter to Paul Fleming Nov 5th 1944 Fred Braue talks about his "invisible pass" for the first time: "...I mentioned earlier a special interest in the "pass". Jean and I are doing another little... | 2005 / 9 / 9 | $4.00 Au$5.92 Ca$5.49 €3.65 £3.19 ¥447.69 | to wish list PDF_facsimile | ||
Expert Card TechniqueJean Hugard & Fred Braue This is the 3rd edition which includes an additional chapter by Dai Vernon and another one by Dr. Daley.

(For an excellent introduction to card magic see The Royal Road to Card Magic or the Card College series.) Expert Card Technique lists and explains in detail a large quantity of card moves. Card moves are abundant and any good card man will come up with his own variations and twists due to his constant use of cards and tireless perfection of... | 2005 / 8 / 30 | $6.00 Au$8.89 Ca$8.24 €5.48 £4.79 ¥671.53 | to wish list | ||
The Royal Road to Card MagicJean Hugard & Fred Braue The younger generation of card magicians probably knows or has heard of Card College by Roberto Giobbi. The Royal Road to Card Magic is very similar but of older vintage and doesn't cover as much ground. It introduces the novice into the art of card magic one move and principle at a time, always with tricks accompanying the moves. It is therefore not a mindless list of moves but a well prepared and thought out textbook. It will take the beginner to an intermediate level. Once The Royal Road to Card Magic has been mastered one can move on to Expert Card Technique which requires a higher skill level.
Actually because Expert Card Technique did not sell well... | 2005 / 8 / 29 | $5.00 Au$7.41 Ca$6.87 €4.56 £3.99 ¥559.61 | to wish list | ||
