Excerpt from the foreword by Paul Rosini:

Sleeving to me is one of my most valuable assets. As you well know, practical magic is what counts, and I have always found it my magical exploits that sleeving has been very practical. In fact, many well known magicians at conventions have passed...

Encore by Kevin Schaller teaches you three easy to do effects with playing cards, a paperclip and a mobile phone.

MOBILE COIN - a very deceptive transposition of a signed coin and the battery of your mobile phone. It’s a very easy trick that uses no gimmicks and is almost impromptu.

SEARCH & DESTROY - A paperclip that is clipped to the card box vanishes and reappears on the selected card.

EDGY - The back and front of your prediction changes so it matches with the chosen card.

All the tricks are easy to do and don't need magnets, threads or big gimmicks. Learn three easy yet effective...

Critics and customers unanimously agree that Encore 3 contains more practical, powerful, performance material than any other book of its kind.

Reputations have been made from the material in this ebook, and over a dozen of the items have been used on national television in the United States, Russia, Japan, Canada, Australia, England, France, and Norway.

When Michael put a card on the Kremlin ceiling, Russia became the 25th country Michael had performed in using the method taught in this ebook, and almost a dozen more countries have been added to the list since then.

Imagine that an airline has lost your luggage, your props, and even your wallet ... yet you have a theater show to give in just a few days. What would you do?

This informative ebook explains how you can enter any strange city, cold turkey, without a cent in your pocket, without a bit of magical equipment to your name, and rent a large auditorium, put out publicity and advertising, pay your hotel and living expenses and prepare a sensational, full-evening magic show that will send your audience away happy and satisfied, and fill your pocket with cash.

Nothing is left to chance. The entire...

This is an intermediate to advanced thumb tip workshop for my friends at Lybrary.com. I want us to reimagine and revolutionize our tipistry. Tipistry means breathtaking thumb tip handling ability, competence, proficiency, and mastery. If we can pull this off, you'll skyrocket your confidence with a thumb tip. In our thumb tip magic, objections create skeptics and I don't want to create skeptics, I want to create awe.

In this 29-minute workshop, I will discuss the misconceptions and no no's of thumb tip magic and how to correct these flaws. I will show you how to elevate your Tipistry and...

A spectator signed business card ends up folded in a matchbox that has been resting on the table for the entire time. The presentation of this effect evolves around a cheap magic club. Signing the business card makes the spectator a member who then goes on to perform his first magic trick.

This effect is also taught on Michael Close Signature Effects.

Professional magician, Paul A. Lelekis, provides "workers" with another array of eight time-tested effects that he has been performing for many years – PLUS a BONUS routine! Paul broke new ground with this amazing – yet easy to do trick! Complete patter included.

Color photos of Paul's hands explain everything in detail.

A variety of time-tested effects are included that any performer will love to include in his/her repertoire. These are fun, interactive, professional effects that will bring your magic to new levels.

The routines are:

1. Torn & Restored – A BIG winner with the...

Here's a book that belongs on every magician's digital shelf. Inside you'll find 48 effects, tips and suggestions for close-up and club performers.

One of our favorites is the "Ring and Balloon Problem," as we can see it being used to win bar bets. Especially if you use an engagement or wedding patter story with your spectator. "Dollar Discernment" is also exceptionally clever as a mental test. We believe entertainers will make great use of it for those situations where they are asked to perform and have no props with them. Good stuff.

Here's a look at what's included:

• Preface
• The...

This ebook begins with a biography of Eddie through the eyes of two men who were very close to him. Then check out...

An important historical video, the only live lecture video of the Cardician himself, Edward Marlo, ever released. It was shot March 1986 in St. Louis, Missouri.

Easy to do magic tricks with everyday objects!

"I thought it was a joke. It isn’t! What unbelievable value for money. All the tricks are real easy to do, and for all ages. I cannot believe that Wolfgang is selling this E-Book for this price. Admittedly I took a chance when I bought it, really not expecting much. What a surprise. This is the best buy ever!”" - Brendan Trichardt

Easy to do with everyday items you can find around the home. Great for everyone, from children to business people. Tricks with coins, glasses, dice, eggs, paper clips, cards, rubber bands and bananas. Mind...

All the PDFs and videos from the CD that Devin Knight sold at his final East Coast Lecture tour. This is the bargain of the century as it would cost you $91.00 to buy these separately. Each PDF fully explains how to make up each trick. To buy these tricks ready made from a magic dealer would cost over $300.00.

QUADRUPLE PREDICTION - An amazing mental effect where the magician correctly predicts cards and colors despite odds of over 16,000 to 1 against it. A real stunner you can close a show with.

Dennis Barlotta's Tribute to Don Alan includes a re-working of three routines; The Chop Cup, The Benson Bowl, and 'Bag Stabbed' a card stab.

Dennis writes:

Dennis applies the Slydini method of magic to various effects by Don Alan. It is an intriguing combination. If you are a purist you will probably not be much interested in it, but if you are searching for effective and commercial magic tricks then this is a very interesting melding of ideas and techniques.

Long out of print, this classic of close-up magic is back with a new look and even more tricks. Through the clever use of dominoes, those attractive, wooden tiles that everyone is familiar with, this ebook explains 18 close-up and parlor mysteries with which to entertain any audience. Beginners and seasoned performers alike will find something of value here, as most effects end with a domino that can be examined to the heart's content of any spectator. Difficult sleights have been dispensed with, relying instead of subtlety and the occasional piece of standard apparatus already owned by most...
