The Lazarus CardStephen Tucker![]() This is the strangest rising card method ever. Why? Because the card that rises is the actual gimmick. Also, the selected card rises and (to amusing patter) its back changes from red to blue. This means that you only have to pocket it, which is logical as its back no longer matches the rest of the cards, and the deck is clean.

LeketenemStephen Tucker![]() With a regular deck, in their own hands, two people each look at a card. They have a 100% free choice of any card. Their cards are lost - you genuinely don't know where they are in the deck! You now put the cards into your empty pocket then, seconds later produce both selections. The rest of the deck is now removed and you are able to continue with any other card routines that you have mastered. The instructions detail four presentations - the one above, one performed with a face up deck, one involving four people (ideal for two married couples - to see if they are compatible) and a 100%... | $12 to wish list | |
Hash-Town-DingStephen Tucker![]() Someone shuffles an examined blue backed deck (which also contains four red backers). You take it back and, in seconds, produce the four aces. However, this production results in laughter from your audience, not stunned amazement. You next explain that you are thinking of a word, and ask them to try and read your mind. They say that they think your word is SOAP. You act astonished and say that it was. You then remove the four red backed cards, seen earlier, and a letter has appeared on the back of each of them. The four letters are S, O, A and P! The deck can now be examined. Hash-Town-Ding... | ★★★★★ $12 to wish list | |
Lotto Flash WalletStephen Tucker![]() This is an absolutely incredible transposition of a 'winning' lottery ticket (you say that you had three of the numbers drawn), which is isolated in a wallet and a £10.00 note held in your hands! Believe it or not it's an even faster transposition than the one you saw the Pendragons do on TV with their 'Metamorphosis' sub-trunk illusion. Best of all it's 100% self-working, but looks like incredible sleight-of-hand or real magic.

Matrix ReloadedStephen Tucker![]() Four laminated cards are shown to each bear the image of a coin. (Included are images of cards bearing either 50p coins or Kennedy half-dollars). They are tabled, one at each corner of your mat or, if strolling, one on each of four up-turned palms. The coins on three of the cards vanish and appear on the fourth card - in true matrix fashion. Then the four images are shaken off the card into reality. This leaves you with four double blanks and four real coins! If you like, you can now perform your favorite coin-matrix with the 'real' coins using the blank cards as covers.

The Mind MapStephen Tucker![]() You remove from your pocket four sections of a large, full-color, treasure map and jig-saw them together. There are 58 possible locations, and someone is asked to imagine that they have buried all their worldly goods at one of these locations. You now start to deduce, letter-by-letter, the name of their thought of location. However, way before you have called out all the letters, you stop, pick up the four pieces, stick a label onto one of them and hand it to the spectator face down. He reveals where he mentally buried his things, and discovers that you stuck the label, with an X drawn on... | $12.50 to wish list | |
The Missing LinkStephen Tucker![]() Three playing cards (or business cards) are shown and then, with herculean strength, you tear out their centers - in order, you explain, to magically link them together. Once they have been linked, they are then torn apart (to break the chain), then the "hoops" are restored and handed out for immediate examination. You can make gimmicks in less than five seconds! Now also supplied with a 100% impromptu handling. 1st edition 2005; 4 pages. | $12 to wish list | |
ParadoxStephen Tucker![]() This is an incredible topological curiosity with a playing card and a third! Four odd shaped pieces, cut from Bicycle playing cards, are tabled. You explain that three of the pieces marry together to form the shape of a complete playing card. The extra piece is only supplied in case of emergencies (i.e. if you lose a piece!) The extra 'emergency' piece is shown to be the same shape as one of the other pieces and is then set aside. Strangely, although you easily solved the 'apparently' simple jig-saw puzzle, no one else can! Comes with a bonus routine: Bomb$hell Deluxe. 1st edition... | ★★★★★ $12 to wish list | |

OmegaStephen Tucker![]() The world's only examinable B'Wave - Two sets of blue Bicycle backed aces are shown. You table one set face down and have someone name any ace. With the other set behind your back, you manage to reverse their named ace (big deal!) However, you now spread the tabled set and their ace has magically reversed there too! Next, you hand someone your set of aces and, whilst in their hands, the face of their ace vanishes and the backs of the other three change from blue to red! (They are now examinable!) Finally, someone picks up the tabled set and, with the cards in their hands, their ace becomes... | ★★★★★ $14 to wish list | |
Red Hot PokerStephen Tucker![]() The core effect is that you play a game of Poker, using just ten cards, with one other player. They choose which five cards they would like, and you take the rest. Incredible as it sounds... they receive a Full House, whilst you always win with a Royal Flush! NOTE: please don't confuse Red Hot Poker with the old "ten card poker" routine played with three sets of 'three of a kind' and a single 'odd' card. There you had to make them choose the 'odd' card in order for you to win. The routines here are nothing like that! As a special related bonus item, Peter Duffie has very kindly allowed me to include... | ★★★★★ $14 to wish list | |
QuartetStephen Tucker![]() Four cards (you could use jumbos) are shown. They are all the same on the face, but one has flipped face down. They are shown again and a second has flipped face down. This is repeated until only one remains face up. You now ask if they'd like to 'see' the final card visibly flip face down? They would, but aren't too impressed when you simply remove it, and openly turn it over! However, when the four cards are dealt face up to the table... they are now all completely different, and match the four freely 'forced' cards that they chose earlier! This routine is great for mastering the... | $12 to wish list | |
Fade AwayStephen Tucker![]() Three face down cards are show and tabled to one side for the moment. Introducing a regular deck of cards, you have one selected, signed across its face, returned and then lost. The deck is now set aside, as you show the three cards tabled earlier. Incredibly, all three appear to be the signed selection! Then the cards become shy and refuse to show their faces in public, backing away from everyone (all three cards now have backs on both sides!) Finally, they all return to normal! This is a brilliant routine and easy to perform. Only three cards are used - apart from those in your deck... | ★★★★★ $12 to wish list | |
The Vortex CardsStephen Tucker![]() Two full-color laminated Visa-type credit cards are shown. As you hold one, and move it in a circle, the image of a silver coin appears at its center, which (incredible as it sounds) you then shake off into reality! You then explain that it can just as easily be deposited back into your bank-account and removed whenever you want it. Once you've produced several coins, you can use the two Vortex Cards as covers for your favorite matrix routine. Stephen includes his Vortex-Matrix routine. This is an optical oddity that you will love and use! Pop the two Vortex Cards in your wallet and... | $12 to wish list | |
Target Card in PaintingMystic Alexandre![]() This is a wonderful presentational idea for the "Invisible Deck". (If you do not know what the "Invisible Deck" is ask around or visit a dealer. It is a very common prepared deck of cards.) This routine will require some creativity on your part, but more so on the spectator’s part ... but this is part of the fun. It can really go anywhere and it’s usually just as interesting to the performer as it is for the participant. 1st edition 2008; 3 pages. | ★★★★★ $4 to wish list | |

Complete Torn and Restored Card EbookStephen Tucker![]() Way back in 1984 Stephen published a strange looking booklet on the 'Torn and Restored Card' effect called The Torn and Restored Card Book. Three routines formed the content, but the most striking thing about the publication was that the booklet was actually torn in half! It was still a complete piece of work, but the appearance was that of half a book. It soon sold out, probably due to its novelty value. It was updated and re-printed in 1986 with additional material. Around that time Stephen's good friend David Britland published a solution to a card-problem of his in his Tearing A Lady in Two manuscript. However, it did... | ★★★★★ $17 to wish list | |
Mind PowerStephen Tucker![]() A fork and a spoon are shown. Someone chooses one leaving you with the spoon (ho, ho!), which you now bend using 'the power of your mind' alone. Actually you do bend it, but by pressing it against your forehead! However, it now visibly straightens (all by itself!) then slowly bends again, whilst held in one hand only, snaps in two and is handed out for immediate examination! Self-working...nobody does it for you! It is all in the most simple and ingenious gimmick that costs you a penny if you don't already have the right thing somewhere at home. 1st edition 2005; 3 pages. | ★★★★★ $12 to wish list | |

Donationvarious![]() We are a for profit business, but we do work on non-profit projects, which we do simply because we love magic. For example, many of the old books we convert cost much more to convert than we would ever hope making selling digital versions. Nevertheless we have chosen to digitize and preserve many of these books and magazines as a service to the magic community. We are also thinking about making some of these ebooks free if we can raise enough money through donations. Any donations made here will flow directly to preserving magic literature.
