In Divinorum (first published 2011) Michael combined a new mathematical principle with known techniques to come up with something astonishing. This latest 'Reloaded and Ready' edition has been fully revised and expanded to add a brilliant new method for 4- and 5-item sets (discovered by Biagio Fasano and included with his permission). A training app (runs in your web browser) is also included which will significantly aid learning and practice of the methods taught.

Devin Knight's Closely Guarded Secrets is a new series that will include never revealed secrets that he developed over the last 30 years. The first release in this new series is Double Clip Line.

This is not the old Snip-Snip Want Ad test. This is Clip Line on STEROIDS! Closely guarded secrets that take Clip Line to a new level. Here are the effects included in the first release of the series.

CLIP LINE EXTRAORDINARY - Two different newspaper columns are shown. One column is marked with the number 1. The other column is marked with the number 2. This is so the audience can tell the columns...

Make It Yourself with this PDF.

Mentalist tells the audience that before the show, he gave a lady a dictionary, a red crayon and an envelope. He asked her to secretly circle a word and to seal the dictionary in the envelope. She was instructed to tell nobody the word, nor let anyone tamper with the envelope. He says this envelope is still in the audience.

When it's time to perform this effect, the Mentalist calls two people on stage.

The sealed envelope with dictionary is then retrieved by one of the spectators who holds on to it in full view. The Mentalist picks up a 300 page book...

Two mentalism card routines.

Cut It Out

The spectator is asked to cut a regular packet of cards and to complete the cut by placing the bottom half on top. The performer ribbon spreads the cards face-down onto the table, inviting the spectator to slide any card from within the spread. The selection is at this stage kept face-down with its identity remaining unknown.

The packet is once again gathered up before the spectator is asked to again cut the deck into two piles. The position cut to is marked by placing the lower half of the deck onto the upper at a right angle. The selected card...

As seen on Steve Cohen's 2 hour feature television special, "LOST MAGIC DECODED" aired on The History Channel, October 18th, 2012!

"I chose to perform "Dr. Bill's Bend" on my television special because I needed a pendulum routine with a distinct ending. My studio audience loved this routine, and so did I. Perhaps I should add it to my live shows at the Waldorf-Astoria? It's that strong." - Steve Cohen, The Millionaires' Magician

Imagine using a simple pendulum made from a piece of ribbon and a key (these can all be borrowed) to teach an entire audience to focus their mental powers...

Dr. Q not only tells you how to describe objects in detail after having been heavily blindfolded with cotton pads and heavy adhesive tapes, but he also tells you how to present the act in its most effective fashion and what to say while presenting it.

Yes, here is the whole secret of this act, described in detail, plus complete patter and presentation. Half dollars (borrowed and unprepared) may first be placed over the eyelids. Then more than half a dozen strips of adhesive tape are placed over the eyes and pressed down tightly at all points. (Tape is also unprepared and may be borrowed.)...

From the fertile mind of Dr. Q comes this fair and convincing 10-minute act of apparent mindreading. It looks so authentic that you may be tempted to claim genuine psychic powers.

Everything in this 10-minute act is explained in plain English, so even if you're new to performing pseudo-mindreading, you can present these tests and convince most any audience. Best yet, no hidden gimmicks, one-ahead, or secret assistants are used. No chemicals, secret preparations or "instant stooges," either. But still, believe it or not, your audience does most of the work for you.

If you travel frequently,...

Finally, a two-person mentalism act that doesn't use complicated codes, expensive electronics or stooges.

This is a godsend for the average mentalist, who may be wary of the time spent in training (and retraining) partners for the traditional two-person act. Tarot Telepathy transcends the code requirement, relying instead on the clever application of the "cradle-to-grave" type of psychological reading offered by the professional medium.

The performer, acts as the Medium, and is blindfolded and seated upon stage. His female assistant circulates among the audience, and randomly stands beside...

Here's Alexander's own method of a stage mentalism feat that borders on genuine clairvoyance. You, too, can be "The Man Who Knows!"

A spectator selects a page of classified ads from among several in the newspaper and perhaps a hundred individual ads are cut out. Half a dozen spectators assist by folding the ads in half and placing them on a tray or table. From among the ads, thirteen are selected at random (a true free choice) and each is inserted into a standard drug or coin envelope and sealed. Note that the performer does not assist in the folding, inserting or sealing operation.

The demand for such unique and bewildering entertainment has been long and consistent. An intriguing and spellbinding routine with a brilliant climax that leaves the audience with a new belief in the powers of the human mind. This program will convince even the most skeptical of audiences of your genuine powers of mental telepathy and psychic accomplishment. It offers a challenge to the sophisticated and intelligent audience.

Weird, eerie and baffling pseudo spirit manifestations are easy to accomplish with very little preparation or expense, once you know how.

That was the first line of Nelson's catalog ad for this nearly impossible to find manuscript, detailing the methods of fake mediums and con artists who presented seances to bilk the public. Why is this title so hard to find? Primarily because it was only advertised in three of the Nelson Enterprises catalogs. Some feel that the methods were used to spawn new fraudsters, instead of being used to inform the innocent public. Others believe that Nelson was...

Four Unique Playing Card Routines! Featuring Dr. Wendy Woo's RV Experiment VERSION 2. You can do this over the phone and this alone is worth the price of the manuscript.

This manuscript was written in 2009 and a release was intended then, but for various reasons not done so. Finally, here it is.

Who is Dr. Wendy Woo? Who knows, but briefly, she has been involved with remote viewing for nearly a decade and considers herself a "consciousness researcher who has sometimes experienced altered states of consciousness." In this manuscript she teaches you how to fake her abilities ...

This PDF also includes the bonus routine ALEXANDRE'S DREAM # 102 DEMONSTRATION! An interesting "dream revelation" using a video or audio file you'll be recording...

"The easiest and most portable book test to date!" - Erik Jansson

The iPhone has loads of apps designed to do magic in the app store but there is one problem. None of them really are organic. As soon as you performed one of these effects with the phone everyone screams: "Its an app! Very clever but its an app". So here is one of the most organic apps on the market.

You show the spectator an ebook on your phone and run through how it works (scrolling etc,) for them... You let them see that every single page is different before you have a page randomly selected. You hold the phone...

Not one or two...rather three new approaches for propless drawing revelations from the mind of Silas Linden.

In Drawing you will get 3 methods to being able to, in a propless and conversational way, reveal anyone's thought of drawing.

1. Clouds: Your participant will visualize his drawing, and you can get it.

2. Sunshine: Just with a simple, natural action, you will secretly know the participant's thought.

3. Reciprocity: A real connection between you and your participant will allow fantastic moments of mystery.

The power of words, imagination and visualization in real manners....

"Did I tell you about the time I won the World Poker Tournament? No? Maybe it's because it hasn't happened yet! But it will, it will..."

Dream Poker casts the spectator as the one with all the answers. He reveals three irrefutable facts about something that hasn't even happened yet.

In effect, you claim that you recently had a dream in which you won the World Poker Tournament. As confirmation of the yet-to-happen events in this dream you write down three pieces of information - the date and the year of your future 'win' and the final card that completes your hand and gives you victory....

This ebook does not teach the actual Dream Prediction effect but it is filled with bonus routines and ideas for those that own Paul's original Dream Prediction routine. If you perform any type of confabulation routine then you will certainly get ideas from this ebook, but not the working or method used for Dream Prediction.

1st edition 2010, 30 pages.

"The Dream" is a routine that is best performed before smaller audiences or in an impromptu setting. The key principles, though, have great utilitarian value and should find use in many of your presentations.

The basic idea evolved from an old card routine by Stewart Judah. [Don't go away yet, the finished routine can hardly be considered a "card trick".] It was the type of effect that has fallen out of fashion lately due to the amount of dealing and counting involved. It struck Bob, though, that the dealing was acceptable if the effect was presented as a type of card game. But while the card game presentation was natural and deceptive, it was hardly earth shaking and...

This is a 1944 radio interview with Dunninger. This recording seems to be not entirely complete but it nevertheless is a fascinating historical marker.
