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) | |
Torn and Restored Cigarette PaperMichael SkinnerThe Torn and Restored Cigarette Paper is a classic sleight-of-hand close-up effect. Skinner's main contribution here is the performance which is humorous and fits his personality. The technique is Nate Leipzig's technique which can also be found in Stars of Magic or Dai Vernon's Tribute to Nate Leipzig. runtimet 6min 44s | ★★★★★ $6 to wish listMP4 (video) | |
The Invisible PalmLarry JenningsThe Ace Assembly theme is a classic one. Jennings credits Bill Miesel as the first to create a card assembly effect. Here you will learn Larry Jennings' variation which avoids bringing the deck and the aces together. The four aces are shown one at a time. Very slowly one by one and absolutely fairly three aces travel to the leader ace. runtime 9min 40s | ★★★★★ $6 to wish listMP4 (video) | |
Clearly PredictableLarry BeckerThis is one of the slickest and cleanest prediction effects I know. A spectator gets a sealed envelope to keep, circles one classified ad in a newspaper, and removes a bill from her wallet and signs it with her initials. Another spectator completely fairly selects a card from a spectator shuffled pack. Despite all of these fair and clean selections the mentalist has predicted all of them. The selected card is printed on the newspaper, and the prediction envelope holds the serial number of the bill and a copy of the classified which was freely selected by the spectator. Some preparatory... | ★★★★★ $7 to wish listMP4 (video) | |
Staple: a stunning transpositionDave ForrestImagine this: You show your lucky Joker - it's folded and stapled firmly to the card case. A card is selected, let's say it's the Jack of Clubs.

On closer inspection it is found to be creased and bears little staple holes. When the card case is turned over we now find that the card firmly stapled to the card case is the Jack of Clubs! And, it can all be examined. This 13 minute video will explain everything you need to make the very... | $7 to wish listMP4 + Flash Video | |
IdiomDave ForrestEffect: You show a deck of playing cards - they're blank on the back and on the face you have written all the letters of the alphabet, one letter on each card. The spectator shuffles the deck and selects any four cards. He is then asked to form a word from the four cards chosen. If it so happens that he can make more than one word - he is allowed a COMPLETELY FREE CHOICE of which word he would like to settle on. A prediction that has been in full view throughout is then shown to accuratley match the freely chosen word! Idiom truly is an audience pleaser. The organic props are genuinely interesting... | ★★★★★ $7 to wish listMP4 + Flash Video | |
ACAAN AgainDave ForrestDave just can't leave this plot alone. Here, on this 12 minute video download you'll learn perhaps his boldest method to date.

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) | |
Glass Through BarJ. C. WagnerGlass through table is a classic of magic that is at least a hundred years old. You can even find it described in children magic books.

Wagner you will turn this classic into a modern and entertaining miracle. runtime 6min 30s | $7 to wish listMP4 (video) | |
King-Side CastlingJeff StoneIn the spring of 2005 Jay Sankey sent out a world-wide request for audition videos featuring original material from unknown magicians. In response, performers from more than a dozen countries submitted more than 200 tapes and dvds! From this mountain of submissions Jay and his team unanimously selected Joe Diamond, Eric Leclerc and Jeff Stone. A few months later, Jay, Joe, Eric and Jeff met up in Toronto and over a couple of days taped an outstanding collection of close-up magic and mentalism including 20 effects with matchbooks, coins, playing cards, keys, film canisters, wrist watches, chewing gum,... | $4 to wish listMP4 (video) | |
Key-Oh-Nee Buh-Lo-NeeJeff StoneThe Effect: The magi removes his house key from his key chain and entrusts the spectator with the remainder of his keys. The magus then promptly causes the house key to vanish and reappear on the key ring in the spectator's hand. Sleeves up, no holding out, completely clean vanish. Watch the Demo. This was another big hit of Jeff's on Underground Jam. The particular vanish (a Richard Ross idea) used for the key is the big killer that really inspired a lot of magicians. You don't want to miss this one! Fun Side Note by Jeff: This effect was actually a dream that I had. I needed five effects... | $4 to wish listMP4 (video) | |

He knew that this was the doing of the Heart family, more specifically, the Three of Hearts. I will get him. I will destroy him. I will... | $4 to wish listMP4 (video) | |
