Learn Magic is a classic magic book for serious beginners. It teaches 20 lessons and focuses not just on effects, tricks and moves, but also on the 'how to learn magic' aspect. Beautifully illustrated by Hans Jelinek.

Henry Hay's larger magic book for beginners, The Amateur Magician's Handbook is broader in scope and already assumes some basic knowledge about magic.

The Mark Leveridge Lecture Experience

In this 82 page ebook there are some tremendous practical close up and mental items using cards, coins, rings, matches, envelopes and bank notes, with virtually no specialist equipment required. By using a subtle blend of good routining and some sleight of hand, many interesting and novel effects are created for you to use.

This is an obscure but extremely fine lesson in conjuring. It is true that it was written as an introduction for the neophyte, but it is a gem of a book of great value to absolutely anyone regardless of their experience.

The text is very modest - no 'latest novelty' or 'top secret'. Just solid sensible counsel about standard, albeit classic, items from Devant's repertoire. Devant is not simply saying what you might want to hear, he is telling you what he has found to be important. He is treating you the way he would treat a private student. For a book this is quite unusual. Most authors hold...

For the time this was published, in the middle of the 19th century, these twelve lessons in magic are probably one of the best instructions in conjuring published in the English language, even though the intended reading audience was young folks. Professor Hoffmann's Modern Magic is still a decade into the future.

Henry Hatton, writing here under his real name Patrick Henry Cannon, describes a range of stage and parlor effects including some sleight-of-hand with coins and cards. His description of the pass is by far the best description I have read prior to Erdnase - almost...

Gary Jones is a full-time professional magician of many years standing, and he is a man who is widely respected for both his performing skills and his creative way of thinking. This ebook brings you the full illustrated details of a large selection of Gary’s worker routines and moves, a couple of effects from some of Gary’s good friends in magic, as well as many tips and much advice on performance and even what it takes to be a pro entertainer.

You will learn the secrets behind Gary's sleight-free coins through table, you will learn a really clever card-to-wallet idea that removes the...

Gary is one of those performers who is equally at home presenting magic to lay people or to a room full of magicians, and his creative output reflects those two requirements. Some of the magic in this collection is designed to intrigue and fool magicians, while other effects are fast, direct and perfect for working under almost any commercial conditions.

What all the magic has in common is that the methods have been constructed to extract the maximum effect for the minimum of fuss. Some of Gary's handlings do require some sleight of hand - he is very fond of palming cards, for instance...

A new way to lift a wallet. It's not what you think.

You won't believe the video. This is an ultra-visual, realistic levitation of your spectator's wallet, without thread. You levitate their wallet after asking if he's seen the various ways of 'lifting' wallets (pickpocket style). You offer to demonstrate a new method on his wallet, needing to see his wallet first to see if it's the "right type," just an excuse for you to lay the wallet on the table (or whatever surface) and make it lift.

Practicality: Super Easy. From beginning to end, not one gimmick is seen nor anything exposed that...

Lost N Found is a very easy way to make any object (small to medium size) appear out of thin air in a one to one situation.

It uses a very easy set up, that your spectator will never be aware of. At the end of your performance your spectator will have no idea where the object came from. As a bonus it includes an impromptu handling.

If you are a stage performer: Lost N Found can also be performed on stage as a comedy routine instead of a one to one routine. The one spectator on the stage will be fooled, the rest of the audience will be entertained.

This is the complete set of four Lubor Fiedler notebooks, almost 1000 pages. Lubor started them in 1976, 1981, 1987, and 2010, respectively.

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 every page has been reproduced as a facsimile, except for blank pages, even though few will be able to read Lubor's notebooks...

This is a compilation of various videos about Lubor Fiedler and his tricks. Many of them are in German, such as interviews and profiles from TV and an early lecture video. Two videos do not feature Lubor, but present tricks invented by Lubor.

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...

The effect is unusual, typical Paul Harris - a word on a page in a book moves.

A great little book from a great author. It is similar in style to the Hoffmann trilogy, though not as exhaustive. It covers the spectrum from little table tricks to grand illusions.
