This ebook does not just include some of TC's favorite routines with the classic Out To Lunch principle, but also a new handling!

First published in 2008 in "Lunch is Served"; 1st digital edition 2012; 19 pages.

Luck of the Draw reading system. This is a wonderful easy system that is well suited to entertainment readings as well as being able to go more in-depth. It is great for walk-a-round situations too. TC often uses Luck of The Draw as an "add-on" to other readings. It is fun and very non-offense style of oracle, as it deals with "Lucky Items".

Revised edition 2012, 17 pages.

29 effects with Tarot cards.

Here is what Richard Webster had to say about it:

An ebook of color based readings.

"I love this book! It has many different styles of color readings. There are many variations here to fit everyone's venue. TC has done his homework on this one, he gets into details on color like no other book. This book is a gem, I love it. Riding The Rainbow contains material that will remain in your arsenal for the rest of your life." - Neal Scrye

"Like a kid in a candy store" is how I felt when I read TC Tahoe's "Riding the Rainbow." It is a delightful book on the subject of readings using color, but it goes much further than that. Going well...

Tarot Chairs is a strong, entertaining Chair Test, combined with the Tarot.

"I love it! A great, simple routine for stage or parlour involving the Tarot that is both entertaining and engaging! There is a lot of scope here for the performer to inject his own personality which is always great. There simply aren't enough good quality routines out there that utilise the Tarot, and this is a great addition to that small collection. Simply fantastic!" - Paul Voodini

"I love Tarot Chairs. It's a great idea, and one that could be performed in almost every type of situation." - Richard Webster

TC's empathy for others is visible in everything he writes, and it's hard to imagine anyone who would not be moved and helped by these routines. Highly recommended." - Richard Webster

In the late twenties Larsen & Wright (William Larsen, Sr. and T. Page Wright) were prominent names in magic. They produced a flood of contributions to magic magazines, over one hundred in The Sphinx alone in 1927-28 (so many in fact that The Sphinx felt compelled to publish much of it under a variety of pseudonyms). But in addition there were the Larsen & Wright publications, a large series of printed books and manuscripts offering a mass of original material not appearing in the periodicals.

When T. Page Wright died tragically in 1930, he left behind the finished manuscript for a mooted book. Incredibly,...

A new permanent tactile marking method, which is easier to feel and less visually noticeable compared to a punch.

Boss work is a marking system that you read by touch, and is designed primarily for use with the punch deal. It is easy to put in and the items required are not too expensive. When compared to the punch, boss work is much easier to feel and more durable. The markings are almost impossible to see on the backs of the cards, and there is nothing to see on the fronts. This video will take you through putting in the work, teaching you the best way to mark the cards, and also showing...
