Una insolita ed inspiegabile versione di Carta al Numero con un mazzo preso a prestito e mescolato dallo spettatore!

Il Mistero dell' Impromptu "Any random Card At Any Number" è un effetto di Carta al Numero che è SEMPRE IMPROVVISABILE, persino prendendo un mazzo di carte in prestito (magari pure incompleto) e dandolo da mescolare liberamente ad uno o più spettatori!

Il prestigiatore chiede di alzare un mazzettino di carte e contarle in segreto, ricordandosene il numero. Prima di disperdere quelle carte tra il resto del mazzo, gli chiede di mescolarle tra loro e ne fa scegliere una....

After they cut the deck, two spectators are given a packet of cards each from which they memorize any card. They lose their card into the deck and concentrate on their symbol. Each thought-of symbol can be removed from the deck and placed in front of the appropriate spectator.

Easy to do. You only need a regular deck of 25 ESP cards.

Practical routines and presentations for the modern magician.

You are about to discover a collection of magic that deliberately walks the line between the cleverly practical and the absurdly comedic. The routines within these pages - from the "404 Spirit Not Found" slate gag to the self-working sock teleportation - appear here not just for their surprising effects, but for their personality. Magic, at its best, isn't about fooling an audience into thinking you possess supernatural powers; it's about creating a shared moment of wonder mixed with laughter, where even the magician seems to be...

This is an experiment to see whether the performer can identify a spectator's fingerprints. A spectator selects 5 cards from a deck, the faces of which are shown to be a random selection. The cards are dealt face down onto the table and the performer turns his back.

The helper now mixes the tabled cards by moving them around on the surface and then turns any one face up and presses his fingertips onto the card face. The card is then turned face down again and the cards mixed on the table again.

Turning back, the performer picks up the cards one at a time and amazingly manages to identify...

Two jokers and two kings change places multiple times. You end with just four kings.

The spectator freely selects a card and it is returned to the deck. The cards are shuffled together. The magician says he will need three chances to locate the selection. He cuts to a 3, deals three cards, and reveals a 7. Then he deals seven cards and reveals a J. Finally, he deals eleven cards and arrives at the spectator's card.

Three cards used to find one card? Not exactly. Those three cards didn't just locate the selection - they also revealed the other three cards of the same value.

While the demo video covers most of it, here are a few important details it doesn't clearly point out.

• The choice of card, number, and their combination is completely free.
• The deck stays in full view the entire time. It is never hidden or taken out of sight.
• Everything is examinable.

Honest Note: There's a hidden move that takes place as the performer asks for the card and number. It's seamlessly built into the flow of conversation and presentation, making it completely unnoticeable. From the audience's point of view, the effect hasn't even started yet, moreover the deck stays in...

When the spectator controls everything... and you control the impossible.

The Effect

Imagine a routine where every decision belongs to your spectator - how to cut, where to stop, and even the exact order the cards are gathered. Yet in the end, the deck is perfectly separated into reds and blacks.

And just when they think they've witnessed the impossible, you reveal your kicker: a written prediction proving you knew the outcome all along - including the fact that their chosen Queen of Hearts would be the only red card in the black half of the deck.

Okay, first up let me explain the title of this ebook. It is not about my 18th birthday. Not at all. I've passed that little milestone ages ago. Like a couple of hundred years ago. On a more serious note, this is my 18th release related to birthday divinations and zodiac divinations. Yes, already 17 releases done and this is the 18th one. So My 18th Birthday is actually my 18th birthday divination method.

All of Lubor Fiedler's released tricks, plus his story of life, plus more.

Lubor Fiedler was the most creative magic trick inventor of all time. There is no comparison. He introduced so many new principles, concepts, and ideas into magic that it took me 20 years to create this record of his achievements. Many will be familiar with his astounding Tenyo releases, but that is merely the tip of the iceberg of his creations. It is hard to overstate his achievements. Lubor's...

One of my goals with this publication was to preserve Lubor Fiedler's notebooks in their original form, because I am certain they will be studied for generations to come. No single person should interpret Lubor's thoughts. Everybody should be able to draw their own conclusions and find and take what is most useful to them. That is why...

The Colley-cted Index is the collected and combined version of all the indices to magic magazines which Michael Colley has prepared, so far 19 magazines.

Sometimes it is easier to look up an item or name in an index than to search for it. It might be an item that can't be easily searched for, such as photos, or it might be an item you don't have good search terms or phrases for, or perhaps the search returns so many results that it is too time-consuming to go through all of them to find the relevant ones.

You will receive this index in four formats:

At the beginning of the experiment, a deck of cards is placed on the table in full view. The performer makes a clear statement: from that moment on, the deck will never be touched again.

A card is freely chosen. A number is freely determined. The performer does not approach the deck again. Instead, the deck is picked up and the cards are dealt one by one, counting aloud until the selected number is reached.

The card at that exact position is turned over. It is precisely the card that was previously chosen.

This routine is specifically designed for large audience settings and is not...

You are asked to perform magic. But you are alone and deckless. Meaning you do not have anything on you. Except just one single card.

You take out this card, face down and propose to do an interesting experiment. You place this card on the palm of a participant or on a table, face down and start your experiment. You ask the participant to think of a card and a number in a very fair manner. After this you ask the participant to turn over that single card. On the other side of the card is a grid of cards with the positions numbered. You say that you had randomly shuffled a deck of playing...

The spectator can create any card, yet the performer is still able to predict it.

A packet of thirteen playing cards, containing every value and every suit, is shown to the spectator. By combining the value of one card with the suit of another, any card can be created.

The spectator rolls two dice and obtains a total that serves as a starting number - for example, 9. The performer deals nine cards and arrives at a first card - for example, the 2 of Hearts - whose suit the spectator remembers. The performer then deals two cards (the value of the first card) and arrives at a second card...

A completely open prediction effect. The spectator freely selects a card from 12 cards, then moves the same number of spaces in any direction according to the card's value. The final card matches the value of the original prediction.

Next, the spectator again moves freely according to that value and selects another card with a completely different value - also matching the magician's original prediction.
