CONTENTS:

• CABARET ROPE ROUTINE (Val Andrews): A complete act! 1. You stretch a piece of rope. 2. Throw a knot at the rope. 3. The knot is moved to the center of the rope and then it is pulled off the rope. 4. The rope is cut and restored. 5. The rope is cut and restored again. 6. You tie a loop in the rope and throw the scissors into it so that they hang from the loop.

Magigram magazine ran from 1966 to 1995. It was printed by Supreme Magic Co. and edited with superb ability by Ken de Courcy. The collaborators were the best ever, just to name a few: Ken de Courcy, Edwin, Ian Adair, Peter Warlock, Max Maven, Lewis Ganson, Maurice Fogel, Arthur Carter, George Blake, David Britland, Pavel, George Johnstone, Billy McComb and a certain Aldo Colombini (I had a column for over 20 years on card magic written by Lewis Ganson).

CONTENTS:

• CARD LOCATION (Mark Weston): A spectator selects a card. The deck is dealt in three packets. A spectator selects a packet and on top of it, the selected card appears.
• THIMBLE THRU (Ken de Courcy): A thimble,...

"Remote Viewing Miracle uses a very clever principle to learn a thought of city in a very disarming way. Nothing is written down, yet the mentalist gets the thought from across the stage! Highly recommended." - Richard Osterlind

The performer invites on stage five people. Four of them sit in front of the audience while the fifth is given a list of names of ten different cities. The performer asks the spectator to mentally select one of the cities and to communicate his choice to the four seated. When everybody knows the chosen city, the mentalist distributes to each spectator an envelope...

"Alfonso Bartolacci's Boxed Clairvoyance is a great principle. I tried it with a number of different style boxes and it works as explained. You will have to practice a bit to get it all natural, but once you have it down, it looks great! You need to have this tool in your arsenal." - Richard Osterlind

This is a Gellerish experiment, which should not be part of a regular program, but could be an extraordinary event during a show or, better, an impromptu performance.

A cardboard shoe-box (only the box, no shoes needed) and a deck of cards are borrowed. Everything can be examined and...

You are probably familiar with the "Head Twister" act. This can be presented to the audience in a serious or comic way, however, it has always been done with obsolete objects such as boxes with knobs, boxes with oriental designs, sequins, and so on. Paolo thought to use a modern object: a motor-cycle helmet! It is a common object of everyday use!

The conjuror or his assistant sits and puts on the helmet and from this moment the magic begins. The helmet and person's head, which is visible, is rotated 360° various times. At the end of this demonstration the assistant stands, the conjuror blocks...

Only 4 mental effects are explained by Grant in this old manuscript but they are really strong ones.

Read carefully the effects:

1. Watch Reading Test: Any three people take ordinary watches to a far corner and set them at any hour, minute and second desired, then seal them in small boxes. These are hung or placed anyplace and you can tell the exact hour, minute and second on each one.
2. Card & Boards Test: Any number of sealed decks that have never been opened are given to committee. They select any deck, break seals and shuffle same and remove any ten cards and seal them nailing between...

Un petit ebook mais au contenu tellement tellement excitant ! La routine utilise seulement deux jeux de cartes ordinaires. Lewis Ganson a écrit dans les pages de Magigram,

« C'est réellement une formidable routine du genre « Faites Comme Moi ». La routine commence de manière classique, puis développe le thème, le spectateur et magicien continuant à faire correspondre des cartes à partir de leur jeu respectif jusqu'à ce que toute une série de coïncidences évidentes ne soit intervenue. L'étalage final des cartes assorties est à la fois incroyable et spectaculaire ».

Una stupefacente routine di tre effetti concatenati con carte tagliate a metà

Effetto

Un mazzo di carte tagliate in due è mescolato e distribuito in due porzioni. Una di queste è scelta da uno spettatore che la taglia e la lascia a parte. Dall'altro mazzo uno spettatore tocca una carta qualsiasi che viene lasciata a faccia in alto nella posizione originale tra le altre. I due mazzetti sono distribuiti prendendo nello stesso tempo le rispettive carte in cima distribuendole fino alla fine contemporaneamente. La carta che corrisponde alla rovesciata nell'altro mazzetto è lasciata...

Una bellissima serie di quattro effetti concatenati con corda anelli ed un orologio preso a prestito.

EFFETTO

Le estremità di una corda vengono annodate in modo da formare un largo cappio. Un anello penetra la corda ed entra nel nodo (o viceversa!). Quindi l'anello passa nuovamente nella corda (o viceversa!). Poi un anello scelto tra due viene magicamente liberato. Infine l'orologio di uno spettatore si trova istantaneamente annodato nella corda in modo 'comico'!

Intratteni il tuo pubblico con questa ormai introvabile routine di facilissima esecuzione, spiegata e illustrata nel consueto...

Once Removed is a hands-off approach to the think-a-card plot.

You will be taught a method for revealing a mere thought of card in an extremely fair manner. There are no peeks or forces, and the deck can be given away after the performance if you so wish. Unlike most handling's, the spectator can truly think of any card, and can do this before the deck is even introduced. The clever principle at play allows you to easily discern the thought of card with very minimal memory work (no more difficult than, say, an "invisible deck"), allowing you to focus fully on presentation. The nature of the...

"Your wonderful book is entertaining, informative and inspiring. It is written in the humorous, intellectual style that is so uniquely yours ... You will live on in the history of Magic - forever." - Siegfried and Roy

These routines are taken from Punx's full evening show. This material is not only audience-tested, it is the material that one of the greatest magicians of the twentieth century used to earn a living. It is not a book for beginners. Some of the routines have only partial explanations. This is because most of this material consists only of presentations, many of them for...

"Frankly, this is one of the most exciting and inspiring books on magic and mentalism I have ever read for Punx does both magic and mentalism as theatre ... and with great entertainment value .. A MUST READ for the serious magician or mentalist." - Phil Willmarth

Punx shares and teaches his way of performing mentalism. You can't read this without starting to think and apply some of Punx's ideas.

In the late seventies, Punx released material he had been performing for various decades as a series of seven booklets (in German): Experimente mit dem Überraum. In 1980 one of them, Der Wahrtraum, was...

"This book is going to be a classic. Punx takes the simplest of effects and weaves an 'entertainment factor' about them that makes it a delight to read and easy to perform. His artistry blends magic and fantasy. A true example of making magic - magick!" - Masklyn ye Mage

Punx was the acknowledged master of 'Magic as Theater', actually the creator, where the performance takes center stage and method only serves the role to support and enable the performance. There are wonderful stories, excellent tips on tricks and handling, and deep insights into the Art of Performing Magic.

"REPEAT BILL IN LEMON is simply PURE SIMPLE GENIUS and to think that 2 years ago I invested $250 dollars in Doug Malloy's THE LEMON GAME. I paid less than $10 for Devin's method and I can do it twice!" - Carl de Rome, Norway

Here is something that Devin Knight kept under wraps for more than 25 years. Imagine doing the bill in lemon with a borrowed bill and immediately repeating it with two lemons that have been in full view on the table at all times. The lemons are NOT concealed in a bag. Both lemons can be examined before the effect begins and there is NO SWITCHING of the lemons. No...

Un grande classico finalmente tradotto in lingua Italiana con l'aggiunta di importanti note nell'introduzione. A metà strada tra il comedy e il trasformismo, l'arte di ottenere una lunga serie di cappelli piegando semplicemente un tondo o anello di feltro o di altro materiale, impersonando istantaneamente in tal modo una moltitudine di personaggi diversi e creando una serie di situazioni comiche, è davvero stupenda. Permette di intrattenere il pubblico da soli o con l'aiuto di spettatori ai quali vengono fatti indossare i cappelli man a mano che vengono prodotti. La Chapografia è un aggiunta...
