Big Easy Card CunningJon RacherbaumerThese are all self-working or very easy to perform effects. One item that I would like to highlight is the Klutz Force, because it is on the same skill level as the popular Criss-Cross force, which is frequently used in self-working effects. With the Klutz Force you have an alternative that has a different feel and procedure.

MirabillDr. Bill CushmanNow, one of the mentalism's greatest "self-working" effects has been simplified to the point where it really is self-working! One early reviewer referred to Mirabill as "Miraskill minus the skill." "He told me to bring a deck of cards and we'd play a friendly game. Never trust a man who calls a game friendly." "I still can't fathom how it happened. They were my cards. I shuffled. I dealt. Yet somehow he still knew ahead of time exactly how things would turn out." "If it had happened once I might have convinced myself he just got lucky. But the second time destroyed any such thoughts.... | ★★★★★ $15 to wish list | |
JamesosophyStewart JamesPersonally I find any trick using a swastica not a particularly good idea today, because the swastica is loaded with meaning not necessarily appropriate for entertainment. But we should not forget that this manuscript was originally written in the 1940s. The gem in my opinion is the last effect, "The All Clear Card Transformation." Here are the effect descriptions as they were originally written by Stewart James. SWASTRICKA The performer writes a prediction and anyone retains it for the time being. He now displays a card, the same size as a playing card, bearing a Swastica. The assertion... | ★★★★★ $4 to wish list | |

PSI-Poker(Benny) Ben HarrisPSI-POKER is the latest creation from Ben Harris (co-creator of 2010’s hit X-RAY). This new effect is totally self-working, requiring no skill or gaffs. (Unless you are calling 'peeking the bottom card' a move.) The secret is ancient, but it’s never been used in this manner before. Magic’s leading historians and card experts have confirmed this claim. (To be precise, it is a new property of an old principle. Very clever indeed.) So, what is PSI-POKER? The effect is a multiple prediction of how a game of “Texas Hold ‘em” will play out from a shuffled deck. You hand a prediction... | ★★★★★ $20 more than onetype to choose from softcover | |

As one of Martin Breese's customers I recently received a newsletter from him that drew my attention to a routine of Peter Duffie's called IDEAL HOLMES. It's a really great self-working routine, and this is what happens... A regular deck of cards is shuffled and then cut by someone a couple of times. You take back the cards and spread them between your hands and have one FREELY selected by someone. He places the card directly... | ★★★★★ $15 to wish list | |
A Real PredictionMichael MaxwellThis effect was created by Dai Vernon and was published in Rufus Steele's book The Last Word on Cards. The deck is shuffled by a spectator. The magician removes a prediction card from the deck and places it face down on the table. The spectator creates two piles. The top card of one is turned face up. The value of that card is used to count to a card in the other pile. The card counted to is the mate of the prediction. runtime 4min 29s | ★★★★★ $4 to wish listMP4 (video) | |

Timely DepartureJohn BannonThree spectators choose a card each. The cards vanish from the deck to later reappear face-up in a face-down spread. As long as you can count and do a double undercut you can perform this effect. Since there is counting and displaying of cards involved this effect requires a captive and moderately intelligent audience to play well. runtime 9min 40s | ★★★★★ $5 to wish listMP4 (video) | |

Simply Impromp2Aldo ColombiniThis is Aldo's second volume of impromptu card tricks. Once again the rules that he required were simple: That the tricks be based on subtle moves and principles only rather than difficult sleights. Most importantly, the tricks had to be totally impromptu with no set-ups. Eventually he did, however, allow a few easy moves such as a card control, a force or a simple sleight; moves that still are very easy to master and perform. Tricks are organized into the following categories. The last one is a section on simple sleights and procedures:

He may stop at the first card, the last card, or anywhere in between. The value of the randomly chosen card is used to count to a card in the remaining portion of the deck. And that card matches the prediction. runtime: 4min 34s | $6 to wish listMP4 (video) |
