Magic & Mentalism: page 145

The material contained within this ebook was first released to an inner circle of mentalists at a price exceeding one hundred dollars. In 1980 the material was organised in the form of a booklet and offered to mentalists on a world-wide basis. In order to eliminate the merely curious from its readership, the booklet was sold at a high cover price. Despite this fact, the book sold out completely. In 1985 Martin Breese reprinted it and now it is available as ebook for the first time.

When presented properly this "SECOND SIGHT" test will have the impact of an atomic bomb. There is no doubt that...

Larry Becker said about Taxi Gambler: "I like it very much. Your method is very workable. You have created an excellent piece of mentalism for which you have to be congratulated".

Ken de Courcy's no gimmick version of Scalbert's "The Mystery of the Seventh Card".

The perfect telephone test to present under challenge conditions. No Feke's. No Gimmicks. Yet the medium at the other end of the phone unerringly names the thought of card.

Scalbert's "Mystery of the Seventh Card", sold many years ago, was a commercial principle applied to the transmission of a card to an assistant playing the role of a medium, waiting on the end of a telephone. The distinct novelty at the time was the fact that all communication with the medium was done by a spectator. The secret was an...

1 dispensa con le spiegazioni di 8 stupendi effetti + 1 calendario speciale da stampare

Wow, una bellissima opera in due dispense . Nella prima sono descritti ben 8 effetti da eseguire con un semplice mazzo di carte e lo speciale calendario ( nella seconda dispensa) raffigurante una carta da gioco per ogni giorno dell'anno.

I giochi possono essere eseguiti anche ricopiando le carte dal calendario alla propria agenda!

Le 8 routines sono di Peter Duffie, Robin Robertson e dello stesso Aldo Colmbini. Coincidenze, ritrovamenti di carte scelte, la carta che si trova al giorno di nascita...

Qualche semplice palloncino per modellare animali e un mazzo di carte ti premettono di presentare al tuo pubblico una divertente e intrigante routine in cui un palloncino “recita” la parte di un cane ammaestrato.

Il “cane” compie una serie di evoluzioni e di divertentissimi equilibrismi ed infine trova la carta scelta dallo spettatore. Il tutto condito da una serie di gags. Intrattenimento puro per il tuo pubblico…proprio quello che si richiede all’Artista di oggi.

Prima edizione digitale di questo ormai introvabile volumetto.

9 pagine con molti chiari disegni B/N.

3 belle routines che hanno in comune gli stessi oggetti: carte e monete.

La prima routine che fa la parte del leone e da il titolo all' opera è una versione dei "bussolotti " in ben nove fasi eseguita con le carte come "tazze" e le monete come "palline".

L'artista mostra tre carte. Una moneta appare tra due carte e compie numerose 'evoluzioni', penetrazioni, passaggi, etc. Alla fine due monete più grandi appaiono sotto alle carte! Facile da eseguire!

This is the famous perfected rope routine - three consecutive cuts and restorations - devised by that West Coast Magician, Eric Lewis. Mr. Lewis was one of the busiest magicians in England before he moved to Los Angeles. There he has been very busy editing the Bamberg books of magic, working at the Magic Castle and doing lectures. The Triple Cut Rope Routine uses a number of original and unorthodox moves that end up in a very smooth and convincing trick. A big hit in the Magic Castle and on lecture tours, where Eric has shown it to the most sophisticated and best informed of the magicians. ...

A practical and easy two-way out system.

Janus V3 is a very simple and practical two-way out system. It is impromptu and everything is examinable before and after. It allows you to leave your business card.

To describe it, we can compare it to another system by Scott Guinn called Assertive positive/negative.

• The reader must also know another principle by Max Maven (in Videomind Volume 2) but the method and presentation are completely different.
• It also uses business cards (or jumbo cardboard cards).
• It can be done anytime with no setup. It is impromptu if you have a 'little something' with you (It is not a gimmick, it...

CONTENTS:

Here is a selection of tricks created by Werner Miller from his ebooks. These are all tricks that can be considered more or less self-working.

CONTENTS:

• FLIPDOODLE 1: You use the twelve face cards to produce an astonishing result that finds three of the same suit.
• I'M NOT OGEN: A spectator 'makes up a card combining any two cards. You spell the name of that card and you find it. Finally, you find the other three cards of the same value.
• CHEERS!: You show seven cards with name of drinks on them and a prediction. A spectator selects a drink and you show that the prediction is correct… with a laugh. ...

A spectator is handed a theatrical review sheet and is asked to choose one of the hundreds of words that make up the various articles. There is no restriction of choice and the word is not written down. It is merely thought of by the spectator.

When the spectator is ready the mentalist begins to concentrate and slowly, letter by letter, reveals the mentally chosen word. It is that direct. A spectator things of a word and you reveal it. The spectator can choose a different word and you can repeat the effect right away.

Simple to learn, simple to perform, devastating in effect. What more...

These are all effects which use wipe-off or white-board pens. Terri Rogers uses the Velleda brand, but there are others you can use. She also uses two types of Velleda films, one white and the other transparent.

[30 years after this booklet has been published we have a lot more pens available. While not wipe-off pens some of these effects can be adopted to the popular Frixion pens which can be erased by heat.]
