The Power of PerceptionArthur SetteringtonPERCEPTIONISM - The recognition of audible or visible signals, transmitted voluntarily, or involuntarily, which reveal personal traits and idiosyncrasies. The interpretation of these signals may be used in a variety of ways by the receiver. The majority of the effects described, are "mental" items, but the psychic approach has been eliminated in favour of the psychological, and the demonstrations appear to be based on natural, rather than supernatural happenings. The person presenting this routine, is a demonstrator, not a magician, and the articles used should suit the style of the... | ★★★★★ $10 to wish list | |

Remote Close Up 2Renzo GrossoDue to the "fault" of the lockdown, I began to collect effects to present on the phone to my friends, using their deck of cards or the objects at their disposal, without any possibility for me to intervene, except by carefully checking the game instructions. Many are the mathematical principles used, some "old" of a few centuries, others revised over time, others, contemporary, just as original. I tried, for each of them, to invent a story, a suitable setting, which was unique and original, fantasy, and which was consistent with the operations that performer and spectator were going to perform,... | $8 to wish list | |

Money in Champagne Bottle and OrangeWolfgang RiebeThe magician borrows two regular money bills from two random spectators. These are torn in half and each spectator receives one half of their bill. The remaining two halves are vanished by the magician. One half reappears in an orange and the serial number matches the one bill of the one spectator exactly.

Mathematical Three Card MonteBob HummerAn entertaining monte effect where the spectator, not the performer, switches the positions of the cards (which may be borrowed). Here's another mental stunner by Bob Hummer and it's one of the most baffling he's ever released. Briefly, it can be done with any deck, and only three cards are used - any three cards. The performer does not switch the cards around, as in the regular monte. It's the spectator who mixes the position of the cards - while the performer's back is turned. After the cards are mixed as much as desired, the spectator peeks at one card, remembers it, and then makes a... | ★★★★★ $6 to wish list | |

The Drawing RoomPaul A. Lelekis6 beautiful effects that are stronger than The Hulk! When I was a kid, I purchased magic books from the 1800s by Prof. Hoffman, Herrmann, Jean Robert-Houdin, and a host of other magicians who I've never heard of before ... these books were old, with very yellowed, brittle pages, with artwork that was quite intricate and very Victorian. But what stood out most to me, were how many times these books would mention performing in, or retiring to "the drawing room" ... this term really intrigued me. These stellar effects within, will "spark" those magical times in your lives that have lasted us for so many years. Effects: ... | ★★★★★ $12 to wish listPDF & MP4 | |

Remote Close Up 1Renzo GrossoDuring the first lockdown period, we lived separated from the world, connected to friends only with the phone; to please my friends I started looking for effects to be presented remotely to people connected, without phone videoconferencing, so that they can use their deck of cards or objects at their disposal, without my possibility to operate, except by checking the game instructions. I searched for automatic effects and found principles that in some cases were a few centuries old; others, more recent, often conceived by famous and illustrious names; many of these, when they were published... | $8 to wish list | |

Showmanship and PresentationEdward MauriceTips and tricks from a Vaudeville professional including openers, audience appeal, costume, make-up, and a lot more. The ideal is to have a director who pays attention to these areas, but most magicians are performers and directors rolled up into one person. It is therefore important to read and study showmanship and presentation. From the introduction by Park Shackleton: It is now, thank goodness, many many years since I cared two hoots how a trick was done (i.e., the actual secret which is of no importance). I am only interested in how it is presented (which is of vital importance). ... | ★★★★★ $7 to wish list | |
