Magic & Mentalism: page 189

As the title says, this is an overview of the subject, impromptu and otherwise. For the really sincere mentalism worker, a carefully worked out ebook on the subject. Several spectators are asked to choose numbers at random, which are then added together in a totally random manner. Yet in spite of the fact that the mentalist could have no idea what numbers would be chosen, and couldn't control what order they would be added up in, when his prediction is shown, it is seen that he was somehow able to predict the exact total!

From the early methods of accomplishing this miracle, to the most recent...

INTRODUCTION: Everyone has a mom. And everyone knows just how hard moms work to give their children the love and attention they need to grow into successful adults. Is it possible to forget your mom? Not unless maybe you have Alzheimer's. Or, unless you are the spectator in this effect. This is an application of an underutilized (and somewhat lost) principle that will cause a spectator to forget his own mom!

EFFECT: Using a hypnosis premise, you tell the spectator a very simple story that involves his mother. Despite the fact you ask him to say the word "mom", he will be unable to do so....

Defy gravity! Learn the secret to levitate money, matches, cards, knives, canes, balls and even yourself.

Tarbell Course contributor Nick Conticello is proud to release the first installment of a book he calls "a five-part meditation on one of the most powerful principles in card magic, the sunken key card."

Sunken Treasury Parts One and Two consists of fourteen effects based on essentially new concepts, material that is unlike anything you have seen before (unless you have seen Nick perform!)

Highlights include:

THE SLEIGHT-OF-MIND ROUTINE: A routine of three effects involving selected cards and a pair of Deuces.

MENTAL POLYGRAPH: A spectator thinks of a card and loses it in the pack herself. She...

A stunning routine of unparalleled talent! The cups and balls with clear glasses - transparent cups. Antonio breaks new ground in close up magic with this effect. What an idea and what entertainment.

"Antonio breaks new ground in close-up magic. What a fabulous idea." - Arturo de Ascanio

"In my lifetime, I've seen some of the greatest "CUPS N BALL" routines performed by Dai Vernon, Mike Ammar, John Thompson, Charlie Miller, Johnny Paul and the many others with brilliant routines and moves & sleights. Antonio's routine is smashing and completely blew me away! You don't need an expensive set of cups for the cups and balls routine!...

#1 In The Super Deck Series

"I can say that it is absolutely brilliant!" - Cody S. Fisher

This is the invisible deck on steroids and many magicians are saying this will make the old invisible deck obsolete and everyone will want this new and improved version. It allows you do things not possible with the standard invisible deck such as showing the deck on BOTH SIDES - showing both faces and backs. Now that we have your attention, read on.

There is only ONE DECK used and it is in full view...

PHASE ONE: You borrow some change from a volunteer, write down a prediction, and have them keep the prediction in their pocket. They make incredibly fair choices with this change, deciding which hand each coin should go while your back is turned. (No, there is no equivoque or magician's choice.) After all choices are made, they open the prediction and it matches perfectly! (While the prediction will always match, a segment of phase one can lead to a wrong call, but Dustin provides a way to handle this gracefully.)

PHASE TWO: They randomly select one of the coins and place it in either their...

This is a triple prediction effect. It requires intermediate sleight-of-hand including second dealing. The routine includes additional handlings (impromptu and set-up versions) and two bonus effects/ideas. Some presentational tips are included, too.

Keep these points in mind:

• Impromptu (the deck is set up only once and you're ready to perform it as many times as you want!)
• Spectator shuffles the deck at the start.
• Spectator can even shuffle the cards during the trick.
• You can deal the cards while being blindfolded.

We know how they did it! The Piddington's were a 1949 husband and wife telepathy act who seemed able to transmit their thoughts to each other, even across vast distances. They could do this without talking.

Finally, the unfathomable mystery behind the world's most baffling telepathy act is revealed after 70 years of silence. Martin T Hart takes us on a fascinating and detailed journey into the lives of 'The Amazing Piddingtons' and deep inside the cunning methods that fooled a global generation. To this day no magician or scientist has ever discovered how Sydney was able to transmit his thoughts...

Questo libro, che vede la luce in occasione del trentesimo anniversario della morte di Padre Salvatore Cimò, vuole essere un omaggio alla sua memoria poiché Egli è stato uno dei protagonisti più significativi del secolo scorso per l’enorme contributo che, attraverso i suoi tantissimi libri, è riuscito a dare alla letteratura magica italiana.
