Ronald Wood

Ronald Wood...Walter Gibson's book aside and taking up The Royal Road To Card Magic, he became obsessed with sleight of hand card work. With Steve Hamilton and Roy Walton recommending what books to study it wasn't long before he was working in Glasgow restaurants and pubs performing close up magic. As an avid fan of Dai Vernon's early work, this influenced Ronnie to start taking notes of his effects. Taking notes on what worked. Taking notes on what natural movements could be replacing certain sleights.

Recently Ronnie decided to start transferring those notes into book form. You WILL be hearing more from him.

Packet Racket

Packet Racket by David Devlin... at the end, but this is not necessary to perform the effect.

Symphony

This effect was inspired by several people including Ed Marlo, Phil Goldstein (namely the trick, "Overture" from his wonderful book, Focus, and was originally published in the March 1981 issue of Genii), Dr. Daley, Dai Vernon, Tom McCarthy, and a few others.

What is amazing about this routine is that it is totally impromptu, and can be done with borrowed cards. There are no gimmicks, and no extra cards.

"This is great! It really is amazing how much mileage you can get with only four cards, and a small...

the description is as follows:

"Here is magic, as I understand it. Here are card mysteries for all kinds and conditions of the conjuring clan .... For example, 'Birds of a Feather Flock Together,' a brilliant card problem in transposing cards, in the genre made famous by the artistry of Dai Vernon. Here is hocus-pocus to confound the quidnuncs! In 'Any Deck Read From the Card Backs,' Mr. Hull initiates you into one of the 'lost mysteries' - an artful method of 'reading' borrowed cards as easily as you would a prearranged deck. 'The Elusive Jack' is an impromptu 'two-card monte' effect...

Terry Seabrooke gives away some of his cherished secrets and more important the reasons why and how. Also includes a pretty clever unpublished mentalism routine by Al Koran.
