Magische Perlen Band 2: Ausgewählte Leckerbissen mit KartenEckhard BöttcherAus dem Vorwort: Meinen Kartenroutinen und -tricks wollte ich in der Reihe 'Magische Perlen' einen eigenen Band widmen. Deshalb fehlen im ersten Band dieser Reihe auch so herrliche Kreationen wie 'Unglaublich - aber wahr', 'Kartengefängnis', 'Gitterkarte' usw. Obwohl alles andere als ein 'Kartenhai', bin ich dennoch gerade deshalb ein wenig stolz auf diese Effekte, die fast alle eins gemeinsam haben: Sie sind mit wenigen Ausnahmen sehr einfach und leicht vorzuführen und von sehr starker visueller Wirkung. Und wenn ich mich auch nicht zu den großen Kartenkünstlern zähle, so finden Sie... | $15 to wish list | |
Magische Perlen Band 1: Das Beste aus meinem Routinen ServiceEckhard BöttcherAus dem Nachwort: Mein Verdienst liegt nicht in der "Erfindung" dieser einzelnen Kunststücke (von der einen oder anderen Ausnahme abgesehen), sondern in der ideenreichen Ausarbeitung der Routinen, einschließlich vieler Vorträge. Meine eigenen Trickkreationen und Kartenroutinen werde ich in weiteren Büchern festhalten.

Cheating the Gallows: Fogel's Top Secrets No. 5Maurice FogelA tremendous amount of thought, study and development has gone into the routine and presentation of this effect, the result of many years of refinement and actual performance before paying audiences. Maurice has performed this effect literally thousands of times under all sorts of conditions, in cabaret and on stage. It has been an unfailing highlight of his performances, talked about and remembered. So many mental effects give the audience nothing to look at and use the same old plots. Certainly, from the very moment the audience see the arresting sight of a gallows before them the effect must... | ★★★★★ $10 to wish list | |
Thayer's Fifty Workshop IdeasWilliam W. LarsenHere's a rare opportunity to obtain 50 of Thayer's ideas for tricks that they planned to release in the 1940s, but due to wartime restrictions, were unable to produce in large quantities. Back in the day, hundreds of magicians said: "Thayer, I wish I could go through your files. You must have hundreds of ideas stored away: tricks that magicians have sent you for sale and manufacture." And Thayer listened. In their files and desk drawers were literally hundreds of ideas. Some they sought out and paid for. Others were given to them. But because of wartime government priorities, it was impossible... | ★★★★★ $10 to wish list | |

Decepticon AcesSatish BThe ace assembly effect is a plot that has been done to death in the annals of card magic. The following is my version of an ace assembly effect with a twist at the end. The method is so simple that even a beginner can master and perform it. Four aces are dealt face down next to each other. Three indifferent cards are added to each pile. The magician says that he will attempt to move all the aces from the different piles into one pile. After some mumbo jumbo, the aces have disappeared from three of the piles. When the fourth pile is turned over, to everyone's surprise, it contains ... the... | ★★★★★ $5 to wish list | |

No Moves MagicRick KercherThis is a marvelous ebook on mostly sleight-less card magic. The only skills you will need to bring to these effects are presentational. Pros will tell you the presentational aspect of a trick is more difficult to master than any sleight or move. That probably is true, however, these effects have been selected and re-worked so as to have built-in impact so that your presentation can even be as direct as simply stating exactly what you are doing. This is the most basic form of presentation, but it remains effective for those who do not have the creativity or inherent comedy to develop entertaining... | ★★★★★ $19.50 to wish list | |

AvatarRobert Walker & Jon RacherbaumerRobert Walker was a unicycling, high-school student. Looking five years younger than he was, he was a dyed-in-the-wool card guy tutored in Marlovian ways. He was also a precocious writer-creator, obsessed with false counts and packet tricks. He spent many hours "twisting the night away," taking voluminous notes, and developing new methods and approaches. His first mini-treatise dissected a marketed packet trick by Larry West ("Wild, Wild West") which he passed onto Jon Racherbaumer to publish. It became the second installment of the loose-leaf Avatar, printed on pink paper and unadorned by illustrations... | $6 to wish list | |
The Psychic PencilGeorge Ernest ArrowsmithA seemingly "impossible" book test. George Arrowsmith wrote: A worthwhile exercise for a Mentalist is to set himself a problem that seems unsolvable and to wrestle with it, and to go on wrestling until a possible (and practical) solution is found. "All things are possible to him who keeps on trying" … Here, then, is such a problem that occurred to the author. A word had to be chosen from a book, one of several, and all of them had to be genuine and unfaked in any way. The word was to be freely selected from any line on any page of the book. This word had to be encircled by the pencil... | $9.50 to wish list | |
Stars PredictionSultan OrazalyVisual movement of holes on a playing card. Show a playing card which has random holes in it. This is best done by putting it in front of a light source, such as your phone's screen. In an instant the holes rearrange to something meaningful. It could be a simple image, the name of a card, a spectator name, a date, anything you can think of. It is a great way to reveal a prediction.

Magic the Magazine of WonderAlbert M. Wilson & F. T. SingletonThe magazine presented magic and allied subjects to the general public with a strong leaning towards the entertainment and recreational side rather than the scientific or philosophical. It stated in its first issue: The object of this magazine is NOT to expose the worlds' best tricks, nor give away the darling secrets of clever professional and amateur magicians. MAGIC is intended to create a wider and more intelligent interest in a most attractive subject - to make more appreciative audiences for magical entertainers, and new devotees of a fascinating hobby.

The Red PredictionBob FarmerIn August of 1963, Dai Vernon took a twenty-hour bus trip from Los Angeles to Dallas, Texas, to deliver a lecture at the Statler Hilton Hotel.
On the way there, Vernon created an amazing effect, an effect that is relatively unknown, even today. Shortly thereafter, Vernon advertised the trick for sale. From the fertile brain of Mr. Dai Vernon comes a MENTAL STUNNER! Here are the facts. Imagine this effect and the IMPACT ON THE AUDIENCE! The performer displays several cards face up and deals them in a random manner on the table top, some face up, some face down. NOW he gives a spectator an... | ★★★★★ $12.50 to wish list | |
There and Back AgainKent GunnA story trick is one of the best effects one can do for lay people. See for example, Bill Malone's success with "Sam the Bellhop". Kent Gunn has altered the recipe of the story trick by adding a couple of card tricks in the middle of the story, which adds a new twist to the genre. Kent feels that it is is the best-received piece he has ever come up with. He also provides advice on how to come up with your own story, which ultimately is the best way to go. ("There and Back Again" was formerly known as "I Left My Heart in San Francisco".)
