Under the SpellDave ArchMany magicians are familiar with Jim Steinmeyer's most excellent Nine Card Trick. However, not as many are aware of the precursor that used an entire (or nearly full) deck to have various audience members spell personal information and still find the selected card! My favorite place to use this routine is when sitting at a table when the deck can be passed around the table with up to six different people participating in the process of selecting, losing and then finding the card. Follow the instructions, and the magic works itself. 1st edition 2018, 2 pages. | $5 to wish list | |

UnfathomableCameron Francis"Unfathomable is an absolute killer! Rock on, Cameron. Rock on!" -- Jamie Daws An incredible, super easy, completely examinable prediction effect that fits in your wallet!

Saying that there are two predictions on the business cards, the magician places one in front of the spectator and one in front of himself. During an extremely fair procedure, the spectator divides the cards between the magician and... | $10 to wish listPDF & MP4 | |

Unique "Thought Card" DiscoveryHoward P. AlbrightYou reveal a freely thought card. EFFECT: Spectator freely selects several cards from his own shuffled deck and thinks of one. Those are returned and mixed in the pack.

A real mental mystery. Remember:

UnseenPaul A. LelekisFour excellent ESP effects with cards - and they're easy to do. The introduction provides a wealth of information about performance, spectator control...and even jokes.

UntoldPeter DuffieFifteen clever tricks with cards. 1st edition, 2002. SEVEN DOWN: Seven Down was inspired by Ed Marlo's "Magic Seven." DRAW POKER: This trick came about as a direct result of a conversation with Roy Walton, who had a card problem which he quickly solved and published in OPUS. FALLING: The following routine is based on Roy Walton's superb "Cascade". Here several Jumbo cards are caused to mutate in a bizarre and visual manner. This was originally called "The Mutant Hand," but I changed the title for this ebook in view of the recently marketed Cascade variation "Mutanz" to avoid confusion with names.

UntraceableRaphaël CzajaThe descriptions below are purposely very detailed so you have an accurate transcription of what is seen by the spectator. Note that he can genuinely shuffle the deck as he wants (overhand, riffle, hindu, etc). No sleight or secret move from the magician. No marking system. No gaff or any hidden gimmick. Only use a regular deck. EFFECT #1: While shuffling a deck of cards, you proclaim to have a sixth sense that enables you to feel things around you without the need for seeing, hearing or touching them; like detecting pulse beats from a close distance. To prove it, you invite a spectator to... | ★★★★★ $7.95 to wish list | |
Utterly WildPeter DuffieThe ultimate ungaffed wild card - use any deck. The original version of this routine was called Born to be Wild (from Inspirations). Peter has enjoyed performing the original over the years, for lay people AND magicians, but the fact that he couldn't show the last card always bothered him. You were left with a face-to-face double that had to be dropped onto the deck and a triple lift executed to finish. Going back to the deck for a finish is never good! But this has now changed ... This new version changes that. You are now left with a single court card for a clean and powerful finish. There is also... | $10.50 to wish listMP4 (video) | |
V.I.P. Very Impossible PossibilityDavid BuiAnother approach to the “Any Card At Any Number” effect. Effect: Spectator one thinks of a card but he does not say it out loud. Spectator two thinks of a number and then deals to a card at that number. The card which she finds is Spectator one's selection. [Note: Uses dual reality, and to prepare for this effect you will require a blank deck of cards.] 1st edition 2007; 10 pages. | $7 to wish list | |
ValentineJamie DawsLooking for the perfect romantic card trick? Then check out Valentine! A card is selected and signed with a heart by your spectator. The card is lost in the deck. The Three of hearts is shown to the spectator and the magician asks her to watch the middle heart very closely.

You place the two on the table and turn over the card that the heart has landed on. Its the signed card! At that point you collect... | $8 to wish list | |
Vanishing at the Royal CourtBiagio FasanoAn incredible impromptu effect that uses all court cards in the deck to tell a story dense with mysteries. This is a packet trick that tells the magical solution to a mystery. An impromptu card effect that, borrowing all the pictures from the deck, uses those to tell the story of a mysterious disappearance at a prestigious dance party reserved for these four aristocratic families. The illusionist, after shuffling the twelve cards, gives them to cut and complete to a spectator who then, by rolling two dice (even if only imaginary ones) decides the precise moment when the mysterious vanishing... | $10.90 $5.90 to wish list | |

You offer to present a magic show using seven cards. You show an Ace, Two, Three and Four plus three Jokers. The A 2 3 & 4 are the performers. The Ace, you say, is the lightest card because it has the least ink on it, whereas the Four is the heaviest. The lightest card — the Ace — is placed into the Joker packet and it instantly rises to the top. You now add the Two to the Ace and place both cards into the Joker packet — both... | $10.50 to wish listPDF & MP4 | |
Variant's VariantAllan AckermanThis routine was first published in Allan's book Here is my Card. The four kings are shown. A deuce is placed under the top king of the four king packet. Magically the deuce rises to the top. Then the deuce is placed third from the top but it still manages to rise to the top. Then it is placed fourth and finally fifth but it always rises to the top. In the end the deuce changes to a king and the four kings change to the four deuces.

Vernon's 1-2-3 RevisitedIan BaxterA perennial favorite in card magic: A chosen card is lost in the deck and the performer, showing the Ace, Two and Three of one suit, offers to change whichever is picked into the selection. That is exactly what happens, with Baxter’s smooth method making good use of The Ascanio Spread, achieving just that. Full instructions given, straightforward and easy to learn. This revision of the Vernon classic not only underlines the all-important simplicity angle by using a shortcut display move, but dispenses with Vernon's need for Palming. Bruce Elliott briefly touched on this in the concluding lines... | ★★★★★ $4 to wish list | |
Vernon's TriumphAllan AckermanThis is an all time classic routine first published in Stars of Magic developed by Dai Vernon. A card is selected, lost in the deck, and then cards are shuffled together face-up and face-down mixing them into a big mess.

Vernon's VariantJohnny ThompsonThis is a wonderfully entertaining routine for two (or more) spectators. Each one of the spectators and the performer receives four cards. All go through the same actions of turning over cards and placing them on the top or bottom of their pack. In the end the performers cards are all face down, whereas the spectators cards have a face up card among them. This basic effect is done again two times in fairer and fairer ways. Very easy to perform. All you need is any double lift and the Elmsley count. You can read the original description of this routine in Ultimate Secrets of Card Magic.

VicissitudesScott F. GuinnFrom the professional repertoire of popular author Scott F. Guinn comes a powerhouse six-phase feature card routine, Vicissitudes. The meaning of "Vicissitudes" is "a succession of alternating changes," and that is exactly what happens in this magical routine. Two cards repeatedly change places in very visual and shocking ways: 1. The JH changes into the 10C in midair and then the JH suddenly and visually appears on top of the deck. 2.The 10C is at the face of the deck, the JH inserted, reversed, in the middle. Suddenly the JH is at the face and the 10C reversed in the middle. 3.Both... | $10 to wish list | |
