Ron MacMillan's Symphony of the SpheresLewis GansonAt the Annual Convention of the International Brotherhood of Magicians (British Ring) at Scarborough in 1957, an unknown magician walked away with the First Prize - The British Ring Shield. The manipulative act which caused so much enthusiastic comment featured Billiard Balls, and even well posted magicians in the audience were at a loss to know from where several of the balls were produced. Here was something new in manipulative magic, and there was much speculation as to the means whereby balls could be "stolen" so cleanly, without a hint being given of their original secret location, or... | ★★★★★ $9 to wish list | |

Al Wheatley is credited with the invention of the Chop Cup. Will Ayling collects in this ebook a series of strong Chop Cup routines including Ken Brooke's routine.

Indian Cups and Balls (Know-How Series)P. K. IlangoThe Indian Cups and Balls trick is as old as Indian Magic itself. It is angle proof and traditionally performed seated on the ground cross-legged surrounded by spectators. The cups vary according to class status. The wealthy Indian conjurer uses gleaming brass cups. The middle class conjurer uses cups made up of wood. The poor conjurer uses the cups made up of coconut shells. They make a hole on the top of a coconut half-shell and through it they will stuff rolled cotton clothes to serve as knobs to hold the cups. Even today Indian conjurers from Kashmir to Cape Comerin are doing this Cups... | ★★★★★ $9.50 to wish list | |

Magician takes bag and points inside saying "Just look closer right there" and the spectator watches through the see-through bag as an apple materializes in the magician's hand.

They see you produce natural objects from nothing, miraculously. | ★★★★★ $17 to wish listMP4 (video) | |
Three Shell GameTom OsbourneThe Three Shell Game can still be seen today performed on the streets to fleece the innocent from their hard-earned cash. It also makes a great performance piece in an intimate close-up setting. This is the most detailed description of this con game I have seen so far. It describes numerous moves and routines as well as the history and details of the shells and peas. Tom Osborne knew the real moves, psychology, and ruses of the street artists who challenged everybody to "follow the little pea." This is the real work of scam artists. To appreciate it, you have to pay close attention to the... | ★★★★★ $4.95 to wish listPDF_facsimile | |

Now you proceed to put the signed egg and signed coin together and without making any funny or weird movements. The coin visually penetrates the egg and goes through its shell!. It all happens right before the eyes of the spectator. The egg is now shown all around completely intact, with no scratches or holes.

Clown NosesAaron IsaacsThis is a sponge ball routine with a very pleasant theme. The effect is: Magician asks a female spectator: "Have you ever seen a clown?" As she answers, the magician removes a red sponge ball from his pocket. "You have probably noticed clowns always wear these silly little noses on their faces. What you may not realize is if you pull on one just right...it splits in two." The magician pulls at the one ball with both hands and produces a second one at his fingertips. "Now, clown noses are very lonely beings, when you place them into a dark place, like your hand," the magician sets one ball... | ★★★★★ $5 to wish list | |
The StingR. ShaneThis routine made me dust of my cups after many years of dormancy. Read for yourself from the introduction how this routine came into being and you will understand that this is not your typical cups & balls. (This routine besides a few further comments already appeared in Pentalogy.): It's funny how things go, sometimes. Back when I started in magic, the Cups and Balls was the one routine I spent hours and hours on, trying to get everything just so. We're not talking some Vernonesque, sleight mad piece of craziness; this was the basic routine I found in The Amateur Magician's Handbook. But there was something about it that just... | ★★★★★ $6 to wish list | |
