This original 1959 Harry Stanley of London booklet "Gems with Jumbo Cards" contains some excellent cards effects that can still be performed today. There is a section on handling jumbo cards (which because of their size isn't easy) which you can extract fun with a spectator who won't have seen cards of this size (especially nowadays). When I originally started to perform in the early 60's I purchased a copy of this little manual from Harry Stanley directly and visited his studio in Soho whenever I travelled to London. I'm really glad to have found this little manual again and have no idea what happened to the one I purchased all those years ago. I would recommend "Gems with Jumbo Cards" to all magicians as much of the material in this publication could be new to modern day audiences.
