Impromptu Card TricksMago MarkoIn this fantastic ebook, you'll find the truly impromptu tricks found in The Encyclopedia of Card Tricks, together with dozens of notes not found in the original.

We have added many illustrations that help clarify the description of certain tricks. Another thing we have done is adding, in some cases, the original advertisements that were used to sell these tricks when they were put on sale way back then. Truly impromptu means that you take a normal shuffled deck and immediately, with no preparation... | $20 to wish list | |

Pocket Word GameRaphaël CzajaA prediction effect with an alphabet deck that fits in your pocket. The magician picks four spectators to play a word game. He makes a prediction that he leaves face down, in full view, on the table and introduces a packet of alphabet cards: Thirteen cards with a different letter on both sides.

The game is divided into two phases, a warm-up and the real deal. THE WARM-UP: The spectators are asked to make up the longest word... | ★★★★★ $5 to wish list | |
Im Fokus Nr. 19: Herausforderung AngenommenChristian SchererDer Einsatz von Computeranimation und künstlicher Intelligenz macht es manchmal schwierig, Fakten und Fiktion voneinander zu unterscheiden. Um dies zu illustrieren, übergibt der Vorführende einem Zuschauer eine chinesische Lochmünze. Der Zuschauer fädelt diese auf eine rote Schnur mit weissen Enden. Der Vorführende zieht die Münze von der Schnur ab und erklärt dass es zwei Möglichkeiten gäbe, die Münze wieder auf die Schnur zu fädeln – über das eine oder das andere Ende, jedoch nicht über die Mitte der Schnur. Dabei wird die Münze sichtbar auf die Mitte der Schnur aufgefädelt,... | $9.95 to wish list | |

CardwitchedShaun YeeExcerpt from the foreword: This is my second book on visual card magic. Like my other book Cards in Action, this book contains completely original sleights, routines and my own handling of some well-known effects. You will find that most of the material is not too difficult to do, as in most of my card work, I usually employ sleights which are easy and angle-proof. Of course, practise is necessary in order to perform the feats smoothly, faultlessly, and convincingly. Good things never do seem to come easy. I have included many of my "gems", and I am, of course, justly proud of my creations and... | $15 to wish list | |
Cards in ActionShaun YeeExcerpt from the introduction: This is a book on card magic. It is not for the all-thumbs newcomer as the effects and routines contained herein require the ability to execute smoothly, various sneaky sleights such as the deceptive buckle-count, the convincing false-shuffle, the confusing multiple-cut, the quiet side-steal, the casual double-lift and so on. Though this book deals primarily with sleight-of-hand effects and routines, a really effective magical programme of card entertainment should be well-balanced with sleight-of-hand tricks and one or two non-sleight effects. By the latter,... | $15 to wish list | |

Credit TransferMark LeveridgeTwo for the price of one here as with Credit Transfer you get a mental effect and a piece of magic together. A borrowed credit card is slipped into a small envelope.

Double MiracleUnnamed MagicianAn impromptu, gimmick-free, borrowed deck miracle. A location and divination of a selected card under test conditions. Read on. Imagine: The magician introduces a deck of cards. The spectator can thoroughly examine it, after which they can freely shuffle it for as long as they want in any way that they want. Once they're done shuffling, the magician invites them to look through the deck (faces towards themself, backs towards the magician) and select any two cards that they like. Let's suppose they select the two black A's. They turn these face-up and leave them on the table. Next,... | $20 to wish list | |
Blackbeard's TreasureBiagio Fasano & Laura ChipsIt is an amazing automatic card magic effect that uses an ordinary deck of 54 cards (complete with the two jokers) and a pair of dice (which can also just be imagined by the spectators).

Completely self-working but with a surprising ending that will fool magicians too!

The book includes stacks with binary bracelet sequences, e.g. a red-black suit bracelet sequence, where six consecutive cards identify the cards. Some... | $59.98 to wish list | |

Fifty Years in the Magic CircleSignor BlitzAn account of the author's professional life; his wonderful tricks and feats; with laughable incidents, and adventures as a magician, necromancer, and ventriloquist. Excerpt from the Preface: In presenting my Autobiography, I am fully aware of the grave responsibility I assume, and equally so of the presumption of a person describing, in a measure, his own character;—yet it is essentially better to relate one’s adventures himself, than to entrust them to the dictation of others. The reminiscences of my life may not be entitled to any special merit, beyond the amusement they may afford... | $12 to wish list | |

Impromptu Lie DetectorMark LeveridgeThis is a straightforward version of the classic Lie Detector routine that can be performed with any deck (even a borrowed one) and with no advance setup. A deck is shuffled by a spectator to put the cards into a genuinely random order, and the performer then extracts one card which he leaves sight unseen in view on the table. The magician then asks a spectator three questions about the tabled card, and the helper is invited to make up his answers (since he doesn't know at this stage what the tabled card actually is). Whatever answers the participant gives, the performer spells the word... | $10 to wish listMP4 (video) | |
