Remember that this is not some fake misprinted bill. Ralf will teach you how to prepare a real genuine dollar bill for this effect. This also works...

Schwamm drüber

Christians Opener zu jeder Gelegenheit: Viel mehr als bloß Schwammbälle. Das Erscheinen der Bälle sieht wie echte Zauberei aus. Der Verschwindegriff ist extrem natürlich und täuschend. Richard Sanders, dessen Dehydrated Sponge diese Routine erst möglich machte, sagte nach...

Matricks

Diese Münzroutine nach Al Schneider kann jeder meistern: Kein Verschwindegriff! Kein Palmieren! Dafür drei absolut visuelle Wanderungen - eine stärker als die andere. Die letzte Münze erscheint unter der Hand einer Zuschauerin. Nichts für Fingerflicker, sondern etwas für Profi.

A borrowed and signed bill vanishes from a spectator's hands and it is found in a bottle with a screw cap, that was inside a sealed envelope.

An Arthur Setterington original that's a sensation ... clean, easy, visual magic that has impact.

The magician draws attention to a stapled envelope hanging from two clips in a nicely lacquered wood and metal skeleton frame, in complete isolation. He requests the loan of a bill a $1, $5, $10, $100 - a £1, £5, £50 - it doesn't make any difference. A spectator is asked to note the number on the bill or he can place any identifying mark he wishes...

He hopes to take the chop cup from the "obvious" trick that some consider it to be, to the miracle it can be; one that withstands repeat performances at street festivals and haunted...

Eine überarbeitete und erweiterte Version von Lou Serranos Steel Ball Routine.

Einer kleinen Schachtel werden drei Stahlkugeln entnommen. Die Kuglen durchdringen nacheinadner sichtbar ein durchsichtiges Tuch. Danach werden die Kugeln nacheinander unsichtbar gemacht. Werden die unsichtbaren Kugeln in eine Hand gegeben, löst dies eine Energiewelle aus, durch die die Zeit um fünf Minuten zurückverschoben wird. Die Kugeln befinden sich wieder wie zu Beginn in der Schachtel, welche die ganze Zeit auf dem Tisch lag.

Eine unterhaltende Münzenroutine, in der Ideen von Roy Eidem, Chris Kenner und Christian Scherer kombiniert werden.

Der Vorführende produziert drei unsichtbare Münzen aus einem diebstahlsicheren Sicherheitsportemonnaie (Geldbörsenbügel) und legt diese auf den Tisch. Die Münzen werden erst sichtbar, wenn sie vom Tisch aufgenommen werden. Anschliessend zeigt der Vorführende, wie die Münzen wieder sicher im Portemonnaie versorgt werden können, d. h. wieder unsichtbar werden. Da er jedoch mit den drei Münzen ein Kunststück zeigen wollte, lässt er sie sogleich wieder aus dem Portemonnaie...

The effect is the following...

A spectator is asked to draw a design or write a word on a small card and this is placed out of sight. The performer stands well away from the spectator while the drawing is being made and patters to the effect that what the spectator draws is suggested to him by some subconscious impulse in the beginning,...

A prize winning paper folding and cutting routine with only a double sheet of newspaper and a pair of scissors.

The routine utilizes all the paper producing a whole succession of objects while you are telling an amusing story. In the introduction Ken de Courcy writes:

THE CHINAMAN'S PAPER CAPER is a most satisfying trick. To begin with, it is unusual because it utilises all of the paper. Second, it requires just one 'double' sheet of newspaper, and a pair of scissors. Third, in case you think our enthusiasm has run riot, it has already won two awards in America; "The Magic Dungeon Academy Trophy for...

[*While we can't guarantee that this book will double everyone's performance income, noted experts, such as mentalist Robert A. Nelson, have stated that entertainers who don't sell "back of room" books, lecture notes, and merchandise are leaving as much as 50% of their potential revenue behind. Offering a book with your name as author on the cover adds prestige, makes you a recognized expert in the eyes of your audience, and is a splendid advertising method - aside from the obvious increased income opportunity. All the smart performers are doing it. Why not you?
