Magic & Conjuring: page 212

Whether you choose to use this as another act in Dave Arch's One Man Circus Sideshow or as a stand-alone twenty-minute act or merely take some of its effects and insert them into a show you currently do; you'll be using a routined collection of flea circus acts with complete scripts refined over ten years of performance. No mechanical contrivances to go wrong. Minimalistic in props and yet believable in the effects it produces - causing an audience to enter that world of fun where reality blurs with fantasy. Comes complete with its own specially-commissioned poster for advertising your next appearance....

Ten routines with cards and coins.

CONTENTS:

• A BOOK IS BETTER (Aldo Colombini): A selected card vanishes from the deck and reappears in a book at a page randomly selected by a spectator. Easy to do. No palming.
• SHADES OF SILVER (Cameron Francis): An easy ‘shadow’ (assembly) coin routine using only four coins and your hands, with a backfire ending.
• COIN WRAP (Aldo Colombini): A card is selected and replaced. You try to produce the selected card but you fail. Then, you decide to do a coin trick. You perform a couple of very strong transpositions with a copper and a silver coin. At...

This is an unusual trick and one that creates mystery and surprise. It can also be customized according to the venues and type of shows. You show four double-blank cards. You place a colored sticker on one card and the sticker appears on every card. Then, three stickers disappear from the cards and all the stickers are on one card!

You will need four double blank cards (blank on both sides) and some stickers.

The effect was created by Peter Duffie. An effect which must give the impression that you are a fantastic card expert. Two cards are placed face up on the table. You now show four misprinted cards that have backs on both sides - except for one, which has a back and a blank face. You now add the first card to the packet and suddenly all the cards print with faces of the selection! You repeat this with the second card to cause all the cards to print to duplicates of this card! Finally you pick up the card with the blank face. "This," you state, "is an eraser!" You now prove this to be so because, suddenly,...

• SUPERIMPOSED (Arun Bonerjee): A spectator selects two symbols by cutting the deck. You predicted those symbols in a very original and funny way.
• ESP BUNDLE (Jozsef Kovacs): A spectator cuts the deck and places a face-up card in the middle (say a Cross). Then he makes packets of cards. At the top of each packet the same symbol appears. Finally, you find the fifth matching symbol.
• COLORIFIC (Felix Greenfield): A truly sensational effect. Five spectators freely select five cards each from the top or bottom of the deck at random and each find five different symbols.
• DOUBLETAKE (Max Maven): With the cards...

"Great trick!" - John Guastaferro

"Want a mini act in your pocket? Look no further! Pure, unadulterated Francis!" - Dave Forrest

"This is a fantastic and self-contained routine with a BORROWED bill, the ending caught me! I never saw it coming!" - Gary Jones

An incredible mini-act that fits in your pocket. Four phases of knock-out magic that you can do anytime, anywhere!

Phase 1
A five dollar bill is borrowed and signed. The magician claims he will make the bill vanish. He then says he might not be able to bring the bill back and in that case, would the spectator accept a cheque? At this point,...

Routines with two decks of cards.

CONTENTS:

• COINCIDENTAL CUT (Arthur Setterington): You place three blue-backed cards into three glasses. A spectator cuts a red-backed deck and takes three cards. They match your cards in the glasses.
• PARITY COINCIDENCE (Aldo Colombini): A spectator says stop while you deal cards in pairs. During this process one card is face up in the middle of both decks. The two cards on each side of the reversed cards are matching.
• BRAIN SELL (Peter Duffie): A spectator THINKS of one card from a blue-backed deck. From a red-backed deck the same card is removed and it has in...

Here you have ten strong routines by Aldo Colombini using special cards (easily found).

CONTENTS:

• ADD-ACADABRA: Two predictions. After a couple of gags, the predictions are shown correct.
• TURNING POINT: A card is reversed in the deck. Four double-blank cards are shown and one is selected. This card now bears the image of the chosen card which is now blank.
• CHIP-CHIP HURRAY: You show seven cards and two poker chips. One card is selected and the same image appears on one of the chips. The other cards are all blank.
• MICKEY FINN: One card is selected among six. This card has a poison sign...

From Val Andrews' introduction:

Three selected cards placed between two double-blank cards disappear one at a time leaving completely blank cards and reappear reversed in the middle of the deck!

Requires

• 3 double blank cards (blank on both sides)
• 1 double back card
• 3 blank backed cards (blank on one side, back on the other side)

Three great effects combined into a stunning routine.

HEAVY TRAFFIC: You place a prediction face down between two face-down Jacks. The prediction disappears. You try again placing the prediction face up between the two face-down Jacks and the prediction card vanishes once again. You place an 'invisible' prediction between the two Jacks. A spectator chooses a card, say the 7D. The Jacks are fanned and the invisible prediction has become visible. It is indeed the 7D!

SEIZE THE NIGHT: The two black Jacks capture the same amount of cards cut by a spectator and then capture a previously freely...

A new and novel paper effect! Do not confuse this with the old Squircle effect. Although similar, this is a greatly improved version. A double sheet of newspaper is shown on both sides. It is folded into quarters and a small 2" square is cut from a folded corner. (In the original Squircle, a double sheet of newspaper is folded in half and a semicircle is cut out.) The 2" square is unfolded showing it is actually a 4" inch square.

The double sheet of newspaper is partly unfolded. Instead of the expected rectangular shape, the audience sees a semicircle! (You cannot do this with the old Squircle.)...

A startling series of visual card changes created by Didier Dupre and performed by Aldo Colombini. The routine is based on the Paul Gordon trick called "Spectrum." This is an amazing card trick which is fun to do and has a stunning climax. You show four cards which are mis-printed, in fact they have faces on both sides (the cards are clearly shown on each side). One card is placed in the pocket but it comes back to the packet in hand and this time it has a back. The other cards develop a back as well and you now show four cards with different colored backs and all can be examined!

A second...

Created by Raphaël Czaja, performed by Aldo Colombini. An incredible version of the classic "B'Wave" where any card can be selected. No 'equivocal' choices! You show four-of-a-kind (say Queens). One Queen is FREELY selected. This is the only Queen in the packet, the other three cards are blank!

Requires two blank-faced cards and two blank-backed cards.
