Born Edward Malkowski. He was one of the most notable names in card magic with groundbreaking publications and a staggering amount of new moves and innovations. To underscore his prolific output and creativity another legend of card magic, the Spaniard Arthuro Ascanio coined the phrase: "When in doubt then for Marlo" - meaning if you don't know who invented a certain concept or move the creator was most likely Marlo.

Marlo himself coined the term cardician, a term which has since been used for magicians who only perform card magic. His first publication in 1938, Pasteboard Presto, was an unheralded thunderbolt which merely hinted...

He currently performs his shows in theaters and festivals: "Control Mental", "Cartas Bajo Control" and "Magia a Dos Velas".

This is a very versatile switch allowing you to switch out one, two, three or four cards from a block of four. Allan got his inspiration from a 3 for 3 switch by Al Leech. One of the interesting parts of this video is that Allan shows the various transitions of his development going from Al Leech's move to Allan's final version.

This is Allan's variation of the famous Eleven Card Trick. That reads like a joke, but it ain't. The spectator counts ten cards and hands them to the performer who double checks counting them aloud. However often he counts, adds and removes cards, they never really are ten cards. (Requires knowledge of Carly's False Count.)
