ESP Card Magic Vol. 15: Howard Adams Part 5
Aldo Colombini
All these routines are self-working with no sleight-of-hand whatsoever.
CONTENTS:
- QUINCIDENTA: A spectator freely selects a design. Two other persons select a design each. The designs match. A deal leads to two more designs and they all match.
- FACEY ESP: A freely selected symbol finds its matching sign. All is done in the hands of a spectator.
- REPEATOTEST: You find three designs a person is concentrating on. Then you reverse two cards which prove to be duplicates of two more designs he has selected.
- THIRTEAM ESP: Great routine and a new principle. Cards are shuffled and dealt in pairs...
Mostly Mental
Alan Jones
The title of this ebook says it all really. It's 'mostly mental' and as such focuses on the performance of psychological illusion. It's not an ebook full of tricks and new methods, but a series of reflections and thoughts which include sections on NLP, Hypnosis, Linguistic Ambiguity, Performance Analysis, RAW Mentalism (Random Acts of Wonder) and so on. Of course there are some effects within the two-hundred or so pages and they are all drawn from Alan's working repertoire.
"I see your work as an asset to many sincere performers. Your approach is not for the mildly curious, nor should it...
Transformational Readings
Alan Jones
This ebook offers a framework for psychic readings. Starting with the idea that 'readings' need to be a dialogue between 'reader' and 'client', it explores the idea of 'Transformational Readings' - that is, readings which empower and move 'clients' forward.
The Framework covers aspects of esoteric symbolism drawn from a number of traditions; the use of Tarot cards, Crystals, Colours, Numbers and even Dominoes and cards used for testing ESP (Zenner Cards). Whilst the ebook is aimed at 'readers', 'clairvoyants' and 'psychic entertainers' it nevertheless explores the use of divinatory tools...
E-Z Square 5 (German)
Werner Miller
Inspiration für dieses Ebuch kommt von Richard Wiseman's Grid, das Ähnlichkeiten mit dem The Ultimate Magic Square von Chris Wasshuber aufweist. Hier sind Werner Miller's Lösungen zum Problem ein Magisches Quadrat mit Karten zu machen ...
Der Zuschauer bestimmt eine Zahl, und Sie legen 16 bzw. 25 Spielkarten zu einem magischen Quadrat aus, das diese Zahl als Konstante hat.
Drei Variationen und ein Bonus.
Da jede Zahl des magischen Quadrats durch einen einzigen Spielkartenwert repräsentiert wird, sind dabei Zahlenwiederholungen unvermeidlich (springen aber durch die Zugehörigkeit zu unterschiedlichen Farbfamilien nicht...
E-Z Square 5
Werner Miller
After seeing a performance of Richard Wiseman's Grid, which shares some commonalities with Chris Wasshuber's The Ultimate Magic Square, Werner Miller was inspired to come up with his take on 'magic squares made from cards' ...
The spectator decides on a number, and you produce instantly a magic square that has the spectator's number as its constant – simply by dealing out 16 or 25 ordinary playing cards.
As an example here is the detailed effect for variation 2: Take out a deck of cards, give it a quick shuffle and then offer the spectator the deck for a cut. The spectator cuts off a portion of the deck and counts the amount...

The Ramsay Legend
Andrew Galloway
John Ramsay was known for his clever use of misdirection. Probably his most famous quote is
"I work alone, but I have an invisible assistant—Miss Direction."—John Ramsay
His use of misdirection was so good that he often badly fooled his fellow magicians. Ramsay was a sleight-of-hand master with coins and thimbles, but worked essentially with all objects including cards, ropes and cups and balls. Lots of clear line drawings by Ralph O. Evans.

How to be a Successful Medium: and other bedtime stories for mentalists
Paul Voodini
How to be a Successful Medium: and Other Bedtime Stories for Mentalists represents Paul Voodini's final PDF contribution to the world of mentalism! Centring around the stage performances of mediums, Paul analyses all aspects of their shows and demonstrates how there is much that any mentalist or mind-reader can learn from a good medium (as opposed to a bad medium, of which there are many!).

Stand-Up Card Magic
Colin H. Linn
Colin Linn is a quietly spoken New Zealander who passionately believes that magic must entertain. Stand-Up Card Magic is a collection of proven visual effects that are at their best when performed standing up. Very little has been published specifically on 'stand up' card magic. Colin believes in audience involvement and whenever possible an effect should be done with the audience and not aloof from them.

Floating Golden Stick
Mike Danata
A golden stick floats in the air without any means of support. A hoop is passed across and around the stick yet it still floats until finally at the command of the magician it travels away from him, at least six feet, and gently comes to rest upon a table.
This effect can be performed in a large drawing room or whilst completely surrounded. It is a one man floating effect and no assistants are required. It should not be confused with the Finn Jon Floating Stick which uses an entirely different method. With this routine the stick actually floats away from the magician and if performed on a...
The Seventh Floor
Aldo Colombini
An act in itself. Seven cards are selected. One card is signed by a spectator and then all seven cards are lost in the deck. Eventually, one by one, they are found by the performer. The signed card continuously reappears and then finally, it is found inside your wallet. It also contains a multiple control of cards called Colombini's B.S. Control.
Number 5
Scott Creasey
Number 5 is the culmination of many years spent searching for a simple to remember, impromptu routine which delivers not only an impossible magical/psychic climax, but also a personal reading which people will remember and talk about.
This routine isn't restricted to close up use. Scott has performed it many times on stage, in cabaret and in a lecture environment using nothing more than a flip chart and a marker pen.
Versatility is something Scott tries to build into every routine he uses as part of his professional repertoire and this routine is no exception, with ideas for multiple readings...
Corner Light
Ravi Mayar
Ravi's signature effect. A chosen card's corner is ripped off. The magician takes out a lighter and goes to burn the torn corner piece. The magician opens his hand to show that the corner piece has vanished. The spectator is given the lighter to examine only to find that the corner of their selected card is inside the sealed lighter. It is signed and given out as a souvenir.
