Eye CandyBrick TilleyThe spectator selects, remembers, and returns a card to the deck. Without any unnecessary handling the performer counts down to its value, then spells the suit. The selected card is turned over at the end of this counting/spelling sequence. Based on a trick by Frederick Mosteller in 1943 that used two decks. This is a streamlined and more commercial one deck version. 1st edition 2016, 4 pages. | ★★★★★ $10 to wish list | |

Hull-A-Palooza: 25 Devilish Strategies of DivinationJon RacherbaumerFrom the Preface: Conjurers (as entertainers) are agents of simulated magical phenomenon. And most theorists would likely agree that such simulations should be direct and powerful. For example, the phenomenon is prophesying a mentally selected card, begins when the agent writes down or verbalizes a prediction beforehand. Next, a spectator names a card and, finally, the named card matches the predicted card. This magical result, as just described, is almost tantamount to telling a person what they are thinking as they are thinking it. This is an ideal outcome. Our literature is loaded with... | ★★★★★ $15 to wish list | |
Australian AcesNick ConticelloThis e-book offers three similar effects all based on a singular premise. 1. Australian Aces: The performer casually shuffles a pack of cards, then hands it to a volunteer. The performer need not touch the cards for the duration of this feat. The volunteer cuts off roughly a quarter of the pack. The volunteer names any Ace freely. He spells its name and gives the packet an Australian Shuffle. The last card he holds is the Ace he named! The volunteer now spells the word 'Ace' and the Ace matching the color of the named Ace turns up. Finally the volunteer spells the suit of the named Ace and... | $6 to wish list | |
Distorted SiblingsDavid DevlinDistorted Siblings combines the best aspects of several tricks by John Bannon, Max Maven, and Aldo Colombini. The routine is this: A packet of red-backed cards and a packet of blue-backed cards are placed face-down on the table. It is explained that each packet contains the four kings and that one in each packet is face-up as a prediction. Two spectators each name a king. The named kings are in fact the face up kings. The kings are turned face down and it is shown that each king is in their opposite packets. Each king is then placed back into its own packet. All four blue cards are together as are the red cards,... | $10 to wish list | |

PskycardsUnknown MentalistThis is a quick playing card divination effect. The performer divines the card merely thought of by the participant and the best part is that there is no need of any physical deck of cards. Just one single business card is used. There are no sleights, no stooges, no preshow, no peeks, no impressions, no outs, no tears. Nothing to reset and instantly repeatable for other participants. The method is an old classic reworked for this effect. The underlying principle is very flexible and can be put to multiple uses with a little creativity. A new design shared by Michael Lyth is included. Another cool... | ★★★★★ $12 to wish list | |

ErrGerard Zitta"I think your routine is very good. I may use it a couple times myself." - Brian T. Lees (a.k.a. Topper)[Although different, the plot can be seen as a variation of an article in Abraca-Poof! - December 2016 that can also be found on lybrary.com. Brian T. Lees digged up an unreferenced gem buried somewhere in one of Aldo Colombini's DVDs. Effect: You produce a deck of cards and hand it to a spectator. (You will not touch it or see it any more). The spectator shuffles the deck, selects a card, folds it and puts a rubber band or a paper clip tight around it. Despite these lab conditions, you try to guess their card! And believe it or not, you will always succeed. Their card can be given back as a souvenir. It does... | $10 to wish list | |

The audience-tested effects range from no-skill puzzlers to outstanding mysteries that require rudimentary sleights. Nelson Hahne's clear illustrations help make everything clear. Here's what's included: A Close Fit - Some of you will win bar bets with this impossible-appearing optical illusion. The Unconfused Joker - The Joker helps locate the spectator's card, though the audience thinks its impossible.

Moment's Notice 9Cameron FrancisFeast your eyes on and fry your spectators' brains with six more insanely impossible impromptu card miracles. TRIP EL REMIX - An amped-up version of a classic triple prediction trick with a major kicker ending. A serious fooler - and best of all, it's entirely self-working. BIDDLE-ISH - A lean, mean, super-clean "Card Across" effect. You've never seen this spin on a time-tested classic of card magic. BUT NOT LEAST - A wildly deceptive triple sandwich effect with an eye-popping, in-the-spectators-hands ending. EAT FRESH - Inspired by the Buck Twins' legendary "Subway" - but you don't... | ★★★★★ $12 to wish list | |
Marlo Without TearsJon RacherbaumerFrom the Foreword: MARLO WITHOUT TEARS began as a flip notion five years ago. My original plan was to prepare a salmagundi of previously published material by Marlo that was easy to do; to select methods which stressed subtlety and psychological cunning and required no difficult sleights. There is a neat irony here because such material is not associated with Marlo. The prevailing assumption about Marlovian magic focusses on its difficulties, complexities, and textual protraction. The look of his books are intimidating: pages of explanation, dense detail, allusions to other notes (published... | ★★★★★ $20 to wish list | |

Hard-hitting and easy to do, this might be the best of the series yet. Divided - An incredible two phase effect that ends in a full deck color separation (You are going to love the concept that makes this possible). Streamlined Sandwich - Two face up Jacks are cut into the deck. A card is freely selected (for real). It then appears between... | ★★★★★ $12 to wish list | |

Expert Card ChicaneryAlton C. SharpeFrom the Preface: This booklet, like our other Expert Series, is not designed to be either a reference or an authority in the ordinary sense. Perhaps, at best, it might be called a tickler, a reminder, or a check list, although none of these terms would be exact. It was written and compiled to stimulate one's "thought processes" and to instill creative activity within those who have a fondness for the pasteboards.

Expert Card ConjuringAlton C. SharpeFrom the introduction by Robert Parrish: This book contains a remarkably select collection of sophisticated means for increasing and deepening the potential for "pleasant illusion" that resides in a pack of cards. These contributions range from presentation ideas such as Fred Lowe's "Second Deal Sam" to the technical refinement of standard effects, as, for example, in Ed Marlo’s "Approach to the ‘Stop’ Trick."

Expert Card MysteriesAlton C. SharpeFrom the introduction by Robert Parrish: Although much of the material in this book comes from advanced current contributors to card magic, Al has included some fascinating lore from the past. There is, for example, the first printed information on Eddie Fay's glimmer technique. I recall that the late Rufus Steele, an informed man of gamblers' dodges, simply refused to believe that Fay was using a reflector. He thought it was a put-on and that Fay was probably using a stack or a pack of marked cards. Then there is Paul LePaul's wonderful transportation of cards into a sealed envelope. Although he explained the trick... | ★★★★★ $8 to wish list |
