The glass (with the deck still in it) is set aside. You pick up the packet of the seven stopped-at selections and begin to deal the cards one at a time on the table, switching the cards around as instructed...

If you already own Some Total 2.0 or if you buy it together with this one, you will get this ebook for just $4.

This routine is a blend of a card effect and a couple of simple coin moves, designing a game of choices that ends on a high note. In brief, three spectators freely select a number and a card, then they switch places, which means they will receive the number of somebody else, but their card still appears at that new number.

It can either be presented as card magic or as a mentalism effect, both close-up or on stage, depending on your performing taste or choice. Everything appears fair and square,...

Effect:

The spectator selects a card from the performer’s deck and does not reveal it to the performer until requested to do so. The performer then shows a packet of four Jokers to the spectator, displaying the faces and backs of all four cards. He then asks the spectator to wave his selected card over the Jokers he is holding in his hand. When the performer turns the packet face up and displays the cards, they are no longer Jokers! Instead, all four cards are now identical to the spectator’s selected card!

But that’s not all! When the performer squares the four cards back together,...

Mentallica will give you entirely new presentational concepts making all of these effects appear new, fresh and original. We explore Woodstock (yes, flashback to 1969), X-Ray Vision, enhancement of the bending effect, Three-Dimensional "Remote Viewing," Drawing Duplication, Any Card At Any Number, even the "Cold Reading" of automobiles!

Harris tips the exact drawing duplication used on his infamous Uri Geller debate, televised via satellite in the late 1980's. It uses no gaffs and looks exactly like the effect Uri has performed on talk-shows since the late 1970's.

This is Jerry Andrus' most important publication.

This ebook includes volume 1 and 2 of the printed version. The more than 1000 illustrations from volume 2 have been inserted close to where they are referenced in the text, making this ebook a lot easier to study than the original printed version where text and illustrations are separated.

Jerry Andrus was an incredible creative and inquisitive man. He could converse just as easily on questions surrounding quantum mechanics as he could on magic and optical illusions. He looked at a deck of cards very differently than most of us. This allowed...

What the experts have said ...

"Pocket Minds cards are really clever and a great way to always have something with you ready to go. They are professionally made and worthy of any entertainer making their living with this art." - Richard Osterlind

"I like your ideas. Pocket Minds is very good. It is very nice to have a mentalism act in your pocket. Keep creating this kind of things." - Luca Volpe

"Your ideas are exceptional. This is a very practical prop...

The download DVD is a complete Chan Canasta television broadcast from a 1960's BBC TV Show. You see a professional entertainer perform, how he controls his spectators, and how he builds up the effects.

Chan first performs a few card effects and closes with a book test. In the beginning spectators take a few cards each and Canasta divines which cards each one has. Then two spectators take one card from a full deck each and they magically take the same card. Later a spectator takes two cards from a deck and puts each one in one of his pockets, without Canasta looking, but again Canasta knows...

This ebook is a collection of 10 years of performing hypnosis in some of the worst bars and backyard parties through out the midwest. These are hypnosis seeming effects that you can do anywhere to create the illusion that you CAN control minds for real! These are the ideal pseudo hypnotic effects that can put almost any audience deeper into REAL hypnosis as well by allowing audiences to go deeper with these convincing effects. In fact no hypnosis is necessary to perform any of these magic and mentalism effects.

This is a collection of effects that will allow you to add 20-30 minutes of pseudo-hypnosis...

This fantastic classic of card magic is considered by many to be as important as his famous Andrus Card Control. This new digital edition has dozens of Andrus sleights, flourishes and routines, all illustrated by 370 drawings by the author. Jerry's work with the diagonal jog is priceless!

This is the book that has inspired most of the "zany" acts that have wowed them at magic conventions and other shows. Funny, funny stuff - but so easy for you to do, with these excellent instructions.

This book was edited by Jean Hugard and illustrated by Stanley Jaks.

Martin Gardner had the following to say:

"Bill Simon has achieved an astonishing mastery of the medium. His mind is constantly probing for new and subtler moves, and bold effects which break fresh paths in the card jungle. In this book he has given generously the fruits of his thinking and experience. The result is a book almost certain to become one of the basic texts of modem card conjuring."

Paul presents seven powerful effects, explained in full, with many step-by-step photographs. These are powerful, yet easy-to-do, professional routines - complete with patter - and most of these effects are completely impromptu.

All seven effects are non-card effects.

The introduction is a six page treatise on performance, spectator management, various forms of misdirection, and the successful executions of some very important, yet troublesome sleights. Also learn how to passively and actively control your spectators. This is very important information!

Included in the introduction are...

If you are looking for a mind-blowing effect that even fools most magicians, then look no further. This is a PK demonstration at its best and looks like the real thing! You can apparently control objects with your mind. This was one of the late Al Mann's favorite PK effects and he fooled the author completely with it.

The principle is almost forgotten and little known. It is only known by a handful of magicians and was used in the past by mediums to fool the public and most magicians. These are effects you can do and not get caught as there are no gimmicks. With this secret you can do mind-boggling...

Portal: This is the perfect playing card and business card transposition. A spectator selects a card and the card is then lost back in the deck. You show your business card which vanishes and appears protruding from your wallet on the table. When you open your wallet the business card transforms into the selected card and your business...

David Devlin loves gambling demonstrations. He is particularly partial to the routines that give the spectators the impression that the performer is an expert in card control and cheating. Very seldom does one find a gambling-type of effect that has the following characteristics:

1. Completely impromptu
2. It can be done with a borrowed deck
3. It is performed entirely in the hands, which makes it ideal for strolling performers
4. There are no false cuts, false shuffles, or false deals
5. The spectators legitimately shuffle the deck several times throughout the routine
6. The spectators do all of the...
