No Adult Supervision is an updated compilation of Geoff's first two sets of lecture notes: The Lecture Your Mother Never Gave You and The Lecture Your Father Never Gave You.

Updated with lots of new text and illustrations, this ebook is filled with outstanding tricks, illusions, sleights and advice. Just a few of the highlights include:

THE "I HATE DAVID COPPERFIELD" TRICK: Based on "Close-Up Illusion" by Larry Jennings, a card visibly melts through another. The visuals here go way beyond the original.

JUST A BIT MORE ULTIMATE THAN JOHN MENDOZA'S "ULTIMATE TORN & RESTORED CARD": You're clean at...

This is a totally self-working and completely hands off routine which can be a reputation maker for you and allows you to fully focus on your presentation. You will find this a real pleasure to perform.

The theme is that of a psychic librarian who always accurately predicts the total deposit to be paid for a list of book choices made by a series of participants. In an additional phase, the performer can also accurately divine each individual choice of the participants.

The method is a unique combination of two classic principles. It is very easy to perform and you can start performing...

What a fantastic effect, from the audience's standpoint. The performer exhibits a three foot length of rope and mysteriously begins to S-T-R-E-T-C-H it to an unbelievable 20 feet!

Completely revised, these greatly enlarged instructions include both of Milbourne Christopher's exclusive methods for stretching a rope to many times its original length. No hidden reels, magnets, or special rope needed. Regular, soft cotton magician's rope works fine for this. This will be a show-stopper in your act. Also makes a terrific introduction to a cut 'n restored or ring-on-rope routine.

THIS ILLUSION IS 100% SAFE AND NOBODY CAN BE HARMED. IT IS JUST AN ILLUSION, BUT ONE OF THE MOST CONVINCING YOU WILL EVER SEE.

"The method is brilliant! It is important to realize that in this trick, like in the buzz saw illusion, no one is hurt, injured or killed. Also, no state or federal laws are broken." - Ron Levy

You show three candle holders on a table, each with a candle in it. A sheet of clear glass is placed around them and the candles are visibly lighted. The center one is referred to as the sacred light. Anything passed through the flame will not burn hands or other objects. Even flash paper will not be set off by the flame!

The sacred light is removed from the alter and caused to vanish. It immediately reappears back in the holder lighted! Finally, the candle vanishes completely leaving no trace behind.

A trick with visible impact that you will fool yourself with.

These are the exact...

The Ken Griffin illusion show toured the world for well over a quarter of a century. The priceless ideas and methods used by the Griffins in their climb to prominence and profit are fully explained.

Almost every magician has dreamed, at one time or another, of headlining his own mystery revue. He visualizes the glamorous side of the picture ... the stage flooded with colored and glittering lights, the dazzling scenery, the gorgeous assistants, breathtaking illusions, the music from the orchestra surging to a crescendo, the thunderous cymbal crash as the magician strides on stage for his...

All three Simon Lovell "Man of Danger" videos bundled together at a bargain price. This is Simon Lovell offering extremely strong routines certain to delight any audience . . . performed and explained.

In this final volume, we begin with the "Packed Wallet Set." As before, Simon begins with the spontaneous magic and audience interaction as only he can do.

Simon Lovell at his very best, performing (and teaching) Heartless, Another Departed Point, Sleight-of-Tongue, Paper Roses, and much, much more.

Included are excellent performances of Simon's finest handlings of "Heartless," "Another Departed Point," "Sleight-of-Tongue," and Simon's wonderful, poignant and memorable "Paper Roses." The performance is laced with jokes and gags the entire way. The audience reaction for this performance leaves nothing to...

In this, the first part of Simon's accoladed three volume video package, we begin with "The Wobbly Wombat Set." This is full blown, non-stop unrehearsed action, where the audience and the magic are both the real deal.

Included are sterling performances of Simon's latest and greatest handlings of "Fingered Number Three," "Card To Wallet," "The Lemming Ace Exchange," and Simon's stunning multiple selection routine: "The Wobbly Wombat."

The performance is spiced with gags and bits of business too numerous to mention. The audience reaction will make you a true believer in Simon's high-impact,...

The performer claims that he has discovered a strange secret numerology code which is embedded in 3 of the most well known 'Unsolved Mysteries of the World' - The Bimini Road, The Voynich Manuscript and The Nazca Lines. According to this weird discovery all the choices made by participants related to these 'Unsolved Mysteries' are amazingly and ominously predetermined, he claims. The performer then goes on to prove this to the utter astonishment of the...

These are very different kind of 13 steps. But very important, nevertheless, at least in my humble opinion. Hopefully everyone will find something of value to take away from these steps. So far this ebook was only shared personally. So some of you may already have it.

Effect: The magician shows a piece of cardboard that resembles a cheese wedge: "This is not a piece of cheese, it is the cardboard cut-out of a piece of cheese". "It is a piece of Dutch cheese. You can recognise this as the holes run horizontally". The magician shows the card on both sides. "What is the difference between Dutch and Swiss cheese?", she asks the audience. She places the card in her fist, indicates the moment of magic, and reveals the card again. "Dutch cheese has horizontal holes, and Swiss cheese has vertical holes". The magician displays the card on both sides to show that...

Das Off-Prinzip ist ein Universalprinzip für Kartentricks – ein Universalfooler.

Manchmal verwechseln wir Fortschritt mit Neuheit. Nicht alles Neue ist eine Verbesserung; Verbesserung ist Einfachheit. Das Off-Prinzip bietet weniger die Neuheit aber mehr den Fortschritt. Das Off-Prinzip versucht nicht Breaks oder Kontrollen abzulösen und dennoch werden sie so brauchbar wie ein Mp3-Player wenn man schon ein Smartphone hat. Das Off-Prinzip ist nicht nur für Fortgeschrittene und dennoch wird fast jeder Kartentrick dadurch fortgeschrittener.

In this vintage and somewhat wacky video, Randy Wakeman demonstrates and explains in great detail his work with "Small Packet Ambitious," "The Visitor," the Rainbow Deck, Tom Gagnon's Impromptu Haunted Deck, Gagnon's "LBD Aces," and much, much more.

Miscellaneous mayhem by Simon Lovell is also included. And yes, although this isn't exactly "Team America" . . . puppets are involved.

A historical, extremely rare video: the only video ever released of one of Chicago's most beloved bartender/magicians, the "Great Heba Haba Al."

"How wonderful that this footage has been preserved for the charm, the methods, and the trick selection of the man Jay Marshall described as "the grandfather of bar magic in Chicago" are there to be studied and learned from. Even when you know what he is doing, and if you know card magic you will, he will still amaze you with the ease and the confidence with which he does it. Remembering that he may have had three tricks going on at once will only...
