Practical effects with cards, flowers and silks. Here is Verrall Wass in his own words about the motivation of this book:

For several years Aldo had a column in the Linking Ring magazine. At the time Phil Willmarth was the editor and he was so kind and open minded enough that he basically let Aldo make fun of everything and everyone.

The columns not only contained some good magic but Aldo was able to include some funny stuff as well. Also, between tricks and gags you will find suggestions on how to improve your presentations with regards to our art of magic.

The structure of the column was an easy one: 1) Some fun and 2) some magic and it worked. Aldo has collected in this e-book many of his favorite columns...

Here’s another ebook from Aldo containing 21 routines using sponge balls, coins, newspaper, cards, jumbo cards, balls, ropes, rubber bands and more. Aldo has been using some of these routines during his acts for quite some years; “Jumbo Jumble” for example, is still one of his favorite effects, so is “Real Danger” which he uses a lot. For close-up workers, do not overlook “Heart 2 Heart,” “Nose Out” and “Another’s Bet.”

You also have a couple of very strong routines here for children’s entertainers, namely “Kaleidoscope Ropes” and “Knot Knots.”

• Countdown ...

In this set of notes you will find several tricks and routines that have served Aldo well during the last few years as a stand-up performer. In fact, the tricks explained here can all be done standing up as no table is required and are great for walk around or strolling magic. Done this way you simply use the hands of the spectators to help you.

Aldo has written these tricks and routines with the assumption that you already know some basic magic such as a card control, a Double Undercut, an Elmsley Count and the like. Aldo's purpose here is not to teach you ‘sleights’ but rather ‘routines’...

"Sticky greatness = epic!! Great e-book and I will be using this one for definite!" - Chris Congreave

From January 2010 to February 2011, Cameron had 12 tricks published in the British IBM magazine The Budget. The column was called "The Continental" and thanks to editor Stephen Tucker, Cameron is now able to offer you all 12 effects in one PDF.

The column includes tricks for close-up and stand-up work using cards, coins, bills, matchbooks, business cards, Sharpies, steno pads and drawings. While some of the material has been published before, five of the tricks have never been previously published and most of...

"extremely visual and psychological magic at its best!" - Titanas (Creator of Titan's Finger)

"So visual. This ones in the gig bag for sure! I love the fact that the gum changes in the spectator's hands. It's unbelievably good methodology to achieve that!!" - Rob Nekros (Professional Magician)

Exchange is a workable piece of visual and psychological magic that takes place in a spectator's hands and your own, making it personal and applicable to perform to a large group.

The effect is simple; you take out a pack of fruit gum. You take out a stick and have a spectator smell it, “smells...

The magician explains that he was once robbed. The thief took his ring, his watch and the money from his wallet. All these items are put into an envelope. Immediately after the magician tears up the envelope. All the items have vanished and returned to their original place. The ring is on the ring finger, the watch is on the wrist and the money is back in the wallet.

In this video you get a detailed explanation of how this routine works. As is typical with Tommy Wonder, he always teaches lessons which apply to many other effects. For example, he spends some time talking about where to attach...

A spectator signed business card ends up folded in a matchbox that has been resting on the table for the entire time. The presentation of this effect evolves around a cheap magic club. Signing the business card makes the spectator a member who then goes on to perform his first magic trick.

This effect is also taught on Michael Close Signature Effects.

"Good tricks, good writing, good illustrations, good price." - David Regal (In the April 2004 issue of Genii)

This ebook is primarily designed for the current or aspiring restaurant magician, featuring practical effects with cards and coins, plus ring flite, with engaging presentations.

Raymond is a student of Scott F. Guinn who also edited this publication and published it as printed booklet in 2003. One can clearly see Scott's mentoring shining through. A unique feature of this book is that Raymond has organized his tricks in performances suited for particular situations. For example you will find 'Adult Set',...

Rachel and Aldo used to go on big lecture tours frequently. In 2011 they gave their final 'Farewell Tour'. With farewell they only mean farewell to big lecture tours, not farewell to magic. Rachel and Aldo will continue to be very active in magic, produce new DVDs and I am sure we will still see them now and then at conventions and other magic happenings. If you have not been able to see their farewell lecture then here is your chance to acquire a very special ebook.

Here in their own words:

Vital knowledge and an essential skill for buskers, pitchmen, or anyone who wants to gather a crowd Don Driver reveals the exact construction and presentation of how he built tips in Las Vegas for a highly successful jam auction, stopping people on the streets and holding them. This DVD has actual footage of Don working this on Hollywood Boulevard as well as the bally being done by street performer Zachery Strange.

A tip in pitchman parlance is a group of people that has stopped to look what all the fuss is about, and who is ultimately ready to be pitched to and buy products.

"The Dollar...

This is the very first publication Stephen Tucker ever released. For some this will be a good thing for others not. I personally always enjoy to see the early creations of a now famous magician.
