The Annotated Royal Road to Card MagicMark Lewis![]() My name is Mark Lewis. This is the book that changed my life. In fact, I suspect it changed the life of a lot of other card magicians too. The Royal Road to Card Magic was first published in 1949 and 70 years later it is still considered the standard work in card magic. A terrific study plan which if you follow carefully (as I did) you cannot possibly fail to achieve proficiency as a card magician. You can start the book knowing nothing about card tricks but by the time you get to the end you will become an expert. Of course, a lot of things have happened in card magic over the last 70 years since the book was first published... | ★★★★★ $15 to wish list | |

Floating MatchRalf (Fairmagic) Rudolph![]() Ralf Rudolph takes on the challenge to let a lighted match float. He explains in detail how to make the gimmick, and how to perform the effect.

Then you light the candle with it. 1st edition 2019, length 15 min. | $10 to wish listMP4 (video) | |
