EFFECT

1. Performer shows 4 playing cards with pictures of 4 well-known persons.
2. A participant is asked to merely think of any one of the persons in her mind. There is absolutely no force at all and it is a completely free choice.
3. Performer apparently reads her mind and writes down what he reads.
4. Performer then shows what he wrote to the participant and even explains it.
5. Participant is then asked to reveal what she had in mind and she does.
6. Performer then shows her how what she thought matches exactly with what he had written and proves in multiple ways how he was all along influencing...

A spectator signs a freely selected card (no force). The card is replaced into the deck which is shuffled and thrown loose into a McDonald's paper bag (or any other bag, or container, which can be borrowed and is completely ungimmicked). The bag is shaken by various spectators - the cards are genuinely mixed-up. The magician then reaches into the bag whilst looking away - and brings out a single card. It is the signed card! This is so easy, self-working, and perfect for close-up or on stage.

You can find the only blue card in a red deck - whilst properly blindfolded. Includes a fantastic,...

Have three cards selected (they can be signed), return them individually into the deck, shuffle, and miraculously the four kings turn face up, and between the kings the three selected and signed cards are found.

This effect is possible due to a simple gimmick you can quickly make at home. (No gimmick is included with this download.) There are many more ways to use this gimmick. Peter explains a variety of effects and ways to use it.

Wasabi is a truly amazing effect for the audience. Full of twists and a great climax at the end. Basically, it is a semi-automatic effect that is very easy to perform. An impossible location, a spelling trick, and still a triple prediction. What more can you have than this? All this with a normal deck of cards. No gimmick.

EFFECT : Psychosocial Test is a 3 phase routine that can be played out of your wallet anywhere anytime to a small group. Both sides of the wallet-sized Test Card contain a few random cards printed.

PHASE 1 : This is an impossible-looking matching/coincidence phase. What happens inside the participant's mind and what happens in her hands, both match exactly and inexplicably. No physical deck of cards is used. Just the Psychosocial Test Card is in play.

PHASE 2 : This is an impossible mind-reading phase with an unheard-of premise. The participant merely thinks of any of the 52 cards in...

A usual kind of title for an unusual kind of book. Magic with a Smile is just that. Tricks with the accent on humour yet not neglecting the magical value of each item. The illustrated joke should be interesting to MCs.

A master secret of the professional psychic that previously sold for the equivalent of $185.00 in today's money. That mysterious, almost mythical billet reading method as used by a select few of the best-informed clairvoyants. One of the most closely held secret routines of the profession, and to the very best of Nelson's information, known to only four living people at the time of writing.

The secret has long been sought by investigators and magicians. In fact, it is alleged that David P. Abbott tried in vain for thirty years to learn the true secret. Originated and perfected by one of the craftiest...

You show seven Jacks of Hearts and one Ten of Spades. By putting the Ten of Spades face-down on the face-up Jacks, all cards turn magically face-down. But the climax is still coming. Once the cards are turned face up they are now all Ten of Spades except one Jack of Hearts.

Principles known to magicians alternate with others more interesting and less known by various authors, to create new effects that can pleasantly amaze your viewers.

• MACH PREDICTION - another way to locate a card...

• You have all the material at home to construct your deck
• You will use a normal deck
• No force
• No sleight of hand
• Detailed instructions

This card trick has a very unique and interesting plot. The topic is Mondriaan, the famous Dutch painter. You show cards and they change colors, the ones Mondriaan needs for his painting. Eventually you end with a replica of the painting itself.

This is a quick mental effect that starts with a bit of fun and ends with a stun. All you need to perform this routine is a double blank business card and a one-time preparation on it which will last you many performances and then if needed you can prepare one more double blank business card.

This is totally self-working and easy to learn. And you can start performing this almost as soon as you have read this manuscript. This is ideal for close-up and parlor situations and also can be performed in a virtual show with a slightly bigger double blank card.

Effect: The participant reads...
