An incredible collection of packet tricks!

• PREDICTION GONE WILD (Cameron Francis): A great trick. A card is selected. You show four blank cards with different names of cards on them. All of a sudden all the cards have the name of the selection. At the end the selection vanishes from the deck and appears in the packet.
• BOXING ACES (Aldo Colombini): An Ace-assembly that will have their jaws dropping. Four Aces vanish from packets of cards and reappear inside the card case.
• GHOST FLIGHT (Peter Duffie): Eight double blank cards and four Queens are used. The Queens trapped between two blank cards vanish and reappear...

Ten amazing routines using coins, dice, books, business cards, balls, paper clips…and no cards! Special guest appearance by Cameron Francis (who performs his two routines).

• A HAND AND THREE COINS (Aldo Colombini): The two in the hand one in the pocket classic theme performed with three different coins and with a logical climax!
• TEA FOR TWO (Ken Brooke): Two cups, a coin box and several coins. After some comedy by-play, the coins magically move from under one cup to the other!
• LINKLIP (Ken de Courcy): A small clip mysteriously links to a bigger one in your hand. Clean, clever method!
• CONSECUTIVELY...

A sponge ball magically travels twice from the magician's hand into the spectator's sleeve.

This effect was created by Dai Vernon and was published in Rufus Steele's book The Last Word on Cards.

The deck is shuffled by a spectator. The magician removes a prediction card from the deck and places it face down on the table. The spectator creates two piles. The top card of one is turned face up. The value of that card is used to count to a card in the other pile. The card counted to is the mate of the prediction.

The Torn and Restored Cigarette Paper is a classic sleight-of-hand close-up effect. Skinner's main contribution here is the performance which is humorous and fits his personality. The technique is Nate Leipzig's technique which can also be found in Stars of Magic or Dai Vernon's Tribute to Nate Leipzig.

New incredible packet tricks, easy to do and with a strong impact. Special guest appearance by Cameron Francis.

• CATO DEAL (Aldo Colombini): Cards are mixed face down and face up and at the end the selected card is the only reversed card in the middle of the packet!
• A BRAINSTORM IN GLASGOW (Peter Duffie): Two Jacks reveal a freely selected card. This is stunning!
• THANKS TO GOODLIFFE (Paul Gordon): Two cards are revealed at the end of an elimination process!
• WRONG AGAIN (Roy Walton): A unique 'Follow The Leader' routine with four packets!
• FAMILY REUNION (Aldo Colombini): A stunning routine using the twelve face cards! ...

Card Throwing, Flicks, Nicks and other cool tricks with cards

Question: What do you get when you cross a 92 m.p.h. fastball with a young man from Ohio who harbors an intense love of card magic?

Answer: The Guinness World Record for throwing a playing card further than anyone else in history. The young man is Rick Smith, Jr. and on March 21, 2002, he obliterated the world record for card throwing with a laser beam toss of 216' 4" eclipsing the previous longstanding mark by over 15'!

The Ace Assembly theme is a classic one. Jennings credits Bill Miesel as the first to create a card assembly effect. Here you will learn Larry Jennings' variation which avoids bringing the deck and the aces together. The four aces are shown one at a time. Very slowly one by one and absolutely fairly three aces travel to the leader ace.

This is one of the slickest and cleanest prediction effects I know.

A spectator gets a sealed envelope to keep, circles one classified ad in a newspaper, and removes a bill from her wallet and signs it with her initials. Another spectator completely fairly selects a card from a spectator shuffled pack. Despite all of these fair and clean selections the mentalist has predicted all of them. The selected card is printed on the newspaper, and the prediction envelope holds the serial number of the bill and a copy of the classified which was freely selected by the spectator.

Everything released in this recording is actually part of George's regular repertoire; everything has been used over and over again in front of paying audiences who demand and get the best.

This is one of Andrew's favourite routines. He has been performing Kollectors Revisited for many years in his act and he regards this effect as his pet routine.

This effect plays big and best of all, it's impromptu and can be performed with a borrowed deck.

In addition, if you are going to perform card magic that has great impact to layman, this effect is for you. This effect involves three freely selected cards and they can be signed. You cause their signed selections to vanish into thin air and magically, the selections appear in a very magical manner.

This book has long become a classic for close-up magicians. I have acquired a box as part of a larger deal and am pricing it ridiculously low. If you already have this buy three more copies and hand them out as gifts. Your friends will love you.

The most successful effect of this kind was Dan Harlan's CardToon where a deck of cards doubled as a flip book. Riffling through the cards one would see a cartoon magician drawn on the backs find and reveal a chosen card. This effect was a huge success, potentially it was the most successful magic trick of all times (my guess, I don't really know).

Toony Angel builds on the basic idea to use a deck of cards as a flip book, but rather than animate a cartoon character on the back, the angel on the bicycle, from the Bicycle back design, starts to cycle towards you, zips around on the back of the card and...
