Magic & Conjuring: page 151

Only 4 mental effects are explained by Grant in this old manuscript but they are really strong ones.

Read carefully the effects:

1. Watch Reading Test: Any three people take ordinary watches to a far corner and set them at any hour, minute and second desired, then seal them in small boxes. These are hung or placed anyplace and you can tell the exact hour, minute and second on each one.
2. Card & Boards Test: Any number of sealed decks that have never been opened are given to committee. They select any deck, break seals and shuffle same and remove any ten cards and seal them nailing between...

Un petit ebook mais au contenu tellement tellement excitant ! La routine utilise seulement deux jeux de cartes ordinaires. Lewis Ganson a écrit dans les pages de Magigram,

« C'est réellement une formidable routine du genre « Faites Comme Moi ». La routine commence de manière classique, puis développe le thème, le spectateur et magicien continuant à faire correspondre des cartes à partir de leur jeu respectif jusqu'à ce que toute une série de coïncidences évidentes ne soit intervenue. L'étalage final des cartes assorties est à la fois incroyable et spectaculaire ».

L'effet...

Vingt-cinq routines impromptues incroyables réalisées simplement avec un jeu de cartes ordinaire (et bien sûr, toutes différentes des autres ebooks d'Aldo).

Una stupefacente routine di tre effetti concatenati con carte tagliate a metà

Effetto

Un mazzo di carte tagliate in due è mescolato e distribuito in due porzioni. Una di queste è scelta da uno spettatore che la taglia e la lascia a parte. Dall'altro mazzo uno spettatore tocca una carta qualsiasi che viene lasciata a faccia in alto nella posizione originale tra le altre. I due mazzetti sono distribuiti prendendo nello stesso tempo le rispettive carte in cima distribuendole fino alla fine contemporaneamente. La carta che corrisponde alla rovesciata nell'altro mazzetto è lasciata...

Una bellissima serie di quattro effetti concatenati con corda anelli ed un orologio preso a prestito.

EFFETTO

Le estremità di una corda vengono annodate in modo da formare un largo cappio. Un anello penetra la corda ed entra nel nodo (o viceversa!). Quindi l'anello passa nuovamente nella corda (o viceversa!). Poi un anello scelto tra due viene magicamente liberato. Infine l'orologio di uno spettatore si trova istantaneamente annodato nella corda in modo 'comico'!

Intratteni il tuo pubblico con questa ormai introvabile routine di facilissima esecuzione, spiegata e illustrata nel consueto...

di Nick Trost traduzione di Aldo Colombini

Aldo thought he published all of his one-liners. But he kept collecting and finally he had so many new ones that he decided to put together this new ebook.

Please keep in mind that some of the jokes is blue material. Use with care and when appropriate.

Once Removed is a hands-off approach to the think-a-card plot.

You will be taught a method for revealing a mere thought of card in an extremely fair manner. There are no peeks or forces, and the deck can be given away after the performance if you so wish. Unlike most handling's, the spectator can truly think of any card, and can do this before the deck is even introduced. The clever principle at play allows you to easily discern the thought of card with very minimal memory work (no more difficult than, say, an "invisible deck"), allowing you to focus fully on presentation. The nature of the...

"Your wonderful book is entertaining, informative and inspiring. It is written in the humorous, intellectual style that is so uniquely yours ... You will live on in the history of Magic - forever." - Siegfried and Roy

These routines are taken from Punx's full evening show. This material is not only audience-tested, it is the material that one of the greatest magicians of the twentieth century used to earn a living. It is not a book for beginners. Some of the routines have only partial explanations. This is because most of this material consists only of presentations, many of them for...

"Frankly, this is one of the most exciting and inspiring books on magic and mentalism I have ever read for Punx does both magic and mentalism as theatre ... and with great entertainment value .. A MUST READ for the serious magician or mentalist." - Phil Willmarth

Punx shares and teaches his way of performing mentalism. You can't read this without starting to think and apply some of Punx's ideas.

In the late seventies, Punx released material he had been performing for various decades as a series of seven booklets (in German): Experimente mit dem Überraum. In 1980 one of them, Der Wahrtraum, was...

"This book is going to be a classic. Punx takes the simplest of effects and weaves an 'entertainment factor' about them that makes it a delight to read and easy to perform. His artistry blends magic and fantasy. A true example of making magic - magick!" - Masklyn ye Mage

Punx was the acknowledged master of 'Magic as Theater', actually the creator, where the performance takes center stage and method only serves the role to support and enable the performance. There are wonderful stories, excellent tips on tricks and handling, and deep insights into the Art of Performing Magic.

"REPEAT BILL IN LEMON is simply PURE SIMPLE GENIUS and to think that 2 years ago I invested $250 dollars in Doug Malloy's THE LEMON GAME. I paid less than $10 for Devin's method and I can do it twice!" - Carl de Rome, Norway

Here is something that Devin Knight kept under wraps for more than 25 years. Imagine doing the bill in lemon with a borrowed bill and immediately repeating it with two lemons that have been in full view on the table at all times. The lemons are NOT concealed in a bag. Both lemons can be examined before the effect begins and there is NO SWITCHING of the lemons. No...

Un grande classico finalmente tradotto in lingua Italiana con l'aggiunta di importanti note nell'introduzione. A metà strada tra il comedy e il trasformismo, l'arte di ottenere una lunga serie di cappelli piegando semplicemente un tondo o anello di feltro o di altro materiale, impersonando istantaneamente in tal modo una moltitudine di personaggi diversi e creando una serie di situazioni comiche, è davvero stupenda. Permette di intrattenere il pubblico da soli o con l'aiuto di spettatori ai quali vengono fatti indossare i cappelli man a mano che vengono prodotti. La Chapografia è un aggiunta...

15 splendide routines cartomagiche di sicuro impatto sul tuo pubblico ! Ti basta un semplice mazzo di carte per entrare subito nel mondo dell'illusione Aldo stesso scrive "I giochi descritti in queste pagine sono tutti abbastanza facili e di sicuro impatto sul pubblico.

Non ci credo ! Ecco cosa...

A superior force where a spectator stops the magician anywhere during a running cut. Yet, that card is forced without any sleights or slip cuts.

One of the cleanest card forces ever created. Perfect for the mentalist looking for a natural force that doesn't scream card trick. Imagine showing a regular deck of cards and repeatedly cutting them until someone tells you to stop. You very cleanly deal off the card you were stopped at and believe it or not that card was forced! Once you stop you can ask the person if he wants you to cut again. If the person says, "Yes," you cut the deck again and...

Confession

Have you ever thought seriously about lying? How about catching someone every time they lie? Though this is a bit far-fetched (You'd be considered Superman if you could), offering a serious demo to your viewers wouldn't be that far-fetched. With the New Confession Principle, you can catch just about anyone lying. Introducing a brand new principle in mentalism, with tons of applications, Confession by Avik accomplishes just what the name suggests; let them lie, but the truth behind that will be clear as daylight to you, as if they were confessing their lies. The ultimate Truth/Lie...

The ebook tells the stories of 'Dr' Walford Bodie and 'Sir' Alexander Cannon both flamboyant magical characters of the last century. Walford Bodie was a magician-showman known to Houdini who sent him the actual electric chair from "Sing Sing" prison. Cannon was also an eccentric character suspected by MI5 of being a spy in World War II!

The cover features caricatures of Bodie and Cannon specially designed by magic graphic artist Donald Monk.

This rare manuscript by U. F. Grant, originally sold as The Devil's Scrapbook, contains a lot of interesting material. Hidden in its pages are some little gems that you will not find anywhere else. There are no long descriptions of the methods, as Grant himself explains. He goes directly to the point. The style is typical of Grant and we made only some minor corrections of typos.

From the introduction:

This is a collection of picked items taken from an exclusive scrapbook....items that would have normally been sold separately at One...Two....Three Dollars A Piece. We are not going to...

A novel mental force.

A spectator thinks of a card and changes it to a new one, in his/her mind. You predicted it, or you name it BEFORE the spectator names his/her own card!".

Impromptu - Anytime, Anywhere. Perfect for informal and casual setting, or when you have NOTHING with you (It can be performed naked on the beach!). You can also use this as a "warm up" experiment, to open your mentalism act.

No fishing or "PA" - Nothing needed, no cards, no props. Pure mind reading. Can fool performers as well.

It is not 100%. Most of the time (80% approximately based on probabilities and...
