Impossi-Bill Twist
Ralf (Fairmagic) Rudolph
You show the old gag where with two folding actions a dollar bill is turned on its head. You now have the spectator sign the bill and repeat the folding actions. However, now only the front of the bill is upside down, the back is not upside down. In other words, only one side of the bill turned. How is that possible? You give the dollar bill as souvenir to the spectator who can keep this impossible bill for the rest of his life in his wallet.
Remember that this is not some fake misprinted bill. Ralf will teach you how to prepare a real genuine dollar bill for this effect. This also works...
Herzblut 3
Christian Knudsen
Das Fazit der Zeitschrift Magische Welt zur Buchvorlage von Christian Knudsen: "Ein qualitativ hervorragend produziertes Buch mit einer Fülle von brauchbarem Material." Christian führt auch auf dieser download DVD souverän durch die Vorführung und Erklärung einiger seiner Lieblingsroutinen:
Schwamm drüber
Christians Opener zu jeder Gelegenheit: Viel mehr als bloß Schwammbälle. Das Erscheinen der Bälle sieht wie echte Zauberei aus. Der Verschwindegriff ist extrem natürlich und täuschend. Richard Sanders, dessen Dehydrated Sponge diese Routine erst möglich machte, sagte nach...
Herzblut 2
Christian Knudsen
Dies ist der zweite Teil der download DVD-Trilogie über die professionelle Close Up-Zauberei von Christian Knudsen.
Matricks
Diese Münzroutine nach Al Schneider kann jeder meistern: Kein Verschwindegriff! Kein Palmieren! Dafür drei absolut visuelle Wanderungen - eine stärker als die andere. Die letzte Münze erscheint unter der Hand einer Zuschauerin. Nichts für Fingerflicker, sondern etwas für Profi.
Karte in Brieftasche: (mit Ehrgeiziger Karte)
Christians meistgespielte Kartenroutine: Eine signierte Zuschauerkarte wandert gleich zweimal in das Reißverschlußfach einer Brieftasche...
Herzblut 1

Ein Ring fliegt

Bottled Bill
Arthur Setterington
A borrowed and signed bill vanishes from a spectator's hands and it is found in a bottle with a screw cap, that was inside a sealed envelope.
An Arthur Setterington original that's a sensation ... clean, easy, visual magic that has impact.
The magician draws attention to a stapled envelope hanging from two clips in a nicely lacquered wood and metal skeleton frame, in complete isolation. He requests the loan of a bill a $1, $5, $10, $100 - a £1, £5, £50 - it doesn't make any difference. A spectator is asked to note the number on the bill or he can place any identifying mark he wishes...
Slam - and other pet peeves about the Chop Cup
Dan Terelmes
D. Terelmes is a performer who admits he tends to overthink things. He's been performing the chop cup for close to 40 years. Contained are his pet peeves on what he believes other performers (even top pros) are doing wrong when presenting the chop cup. You won't find any new sleights or new moves. Instead you might find a nugget or few that will change your approach as to how YOU perform and routine the chop cup.
He hopes to take the chop cup from the "obvious" trick that some consider it to be, to the miracle it can be; one that withstands repeat performances at street festivals and haunted...
Im Fokus Nr. 8: Stahlhartes Déjà-vu
Christian Scherer
Eine überarbeitete und erweiterte Version von Lou Serranos Steel Ball Routine.
Einer kleinen Schachtel werden drei Stahlkugeln entnommen. Die Kuglen durchdringen nacheinadner sichtbar ein durchsichtiges Tuch. Danach werden die Kugeln nacheinander unsichtbar gemacht. Werden die unsichtbaren Kugeln in eine Hand gegeben, löst dies eine Energiewelle aus, durch die die Zeit um fünf Minuten zurückverschoben wird. Die Kugeln befinden sich wieder wie zu Beginn in der Schachtel, welche die ganze Zeit auf dem Tisch lag.
Erstausgabe 2019, 21 Seiten, 25 Abbildungen
Im Fokus Nr. 7: Das Sicherheitsportemonnaie
Christian Scherer
Eine unterhaltende Münzenroutine, in der Ideen von Roy Eidem, Chris Kenner und Christian Scherer kombiniert werden.
Der Vorführende produziert drei unsichtbare Münzen aus einem diebstahlsicheren Sicherheitsportemonnaie (Geldbörsenbügel) und legt diese auf den Tisch. Die Münzen werden erst sichtbar, wenn sie vom Tisch aufgenommen werden. Anschliessend zeigt der Vorführende, wie die Münzen wieder sicher im Portemonnaie versorgt werden können, d. h. wieder unsichtbar werden. Da er jedoch mit den drei Münzen ein Kunststück zeigen wollte, lässt er sie sogleich wieder aus dem Portemonnaie...
The Modern Manipulator
Carl Martell
This, originally written in 1910, juggling and magic book is (for the most part) still very relevant. Besides the insights you will gain about juggling and magic in the late 1800s, you will also learn about forgotten routines that you can use to enrich your repertoire with and that would still play very well in your act today. You will get the original script as written by Carl Martell. It is an exciting read for jugglers, variety performers; and sleight of hand, close-up, and stage magicians alike. You will read about the workings behind some long-forgotten vaudeville juggling stunts, magic...
Below the Threshold
Len Belcher
Talk of 'subliminal' advertising is always fashionable. Presented in the manner suggested this is an outstanding mental effect, great for your show, for impromptu use and to present for the members of the press, newspaper offices, etc., for publicity purposes.
The effect is the following...
A spectator is asked to draw a design or write a word on a small card and this is placed out of sight. The performer stands well away from the spectator while the drawing is being made and patters to the effect that what the spectator draws is suggested to him by some subconscious impulse in the beginning,...
The Chinaman's Paper Caper
Howard A. Adams
A prize winning paper folding and cutting routine with only a double sheet of newspaper and a pair of scissors.
The routine utilizes all the paper producing a whole succession of objects while you are telling an amusing story. In the introduction Ken de Courcy writes:
THE CHINAMAN'S PAPER CAPER is a most satisfying trick. To begin with, it is unusual because it utilises all of the paper. Second, it requires just one 'double' sheet of newspaper, and a pair of scissors. Third, in case you think our enthusiasm has run riot, it has already won two awards in America; "The Magic Dungeon Academy Trophy for...
