This can be the most powerfully deceptive steal or vanish in your thumb tip arsenal. No, it is not the Slydini Back Steal or the Vernon Kick Steal.

"This is the best 10 minutes of thumb tip magic ever! Thank you so much Hal." - Kim Fitzpatrick

The Ultimate Angle Proof Vanish video is by far the number one video download I have ever offered on the thumb tip. This is an incredibly deceptive, under your nose steal or vanish for not just a silk, but anything you can possibly fit in a thumb tip. Performed slow and with no wacky hand movements or gestures or crazy sleights; I believe this is the best...

The All Backs Motif is odd. For one thing, it casts a revealing light on we magician's claim (when it suits our purpose) that we use ordinary cards. That is our decks, which we prefer to borrow, consist of cards that have faces and backs on both sides. Therefore, if we show a deck that consists of all backs and faces we are admitting that such anomalies exist and the cards being used are probably gimmicked in some way. Why do this?

A better question may be - What motivated someone to create such an effect using this kind of deck? That "someone" was Dai Vernon and my guess is that he wanted to...

A brief excursus on the types of communication and its three components (verbal, non-verbal, paraverbal), a short journey into the world of NLP, followed by simple NLP experiments, applied precisely to illusionism. From NLP to forcing the magician, the step is not so long, and then Vernon, and then Cassidy.

At this point, another analysis begins: who is the mentalist, and what does he do; the mentalist reads your mind, how? And from here another phase of study on the powers of mentalists and the modalities of revelation, passing through extrasensory perception, spiritualism,...

Consistent with Ed's pattern in the New Tops, his most important contribution is last, in the Trick Annual. "The Cigar Bottom Deal" article is too often overlooked but contains gems of Marlo thinking on deals. Wesley is forever indebted to Ed for his "Pseudo Full Grip" technique,...

instantly re-set. Lastly, you can perform the effect using the spectator's hands ... The hallmark of all Ray Grismer items is the simplicity of the method and Shorty is no exception. ... Highly recommended." - Alan Marcus

"The effect is achieved by means of specially gimmicked bills plus a Dai Vernon move for handling which is simple to do and is absolutely clean cut in effect - a five dollar bill and a one dollar bill simply disappear and reappear without any obvious chicanery ... Highly recommended." - Eddie Dawes

Instructions, routines, tips, and ideas for a card punch.

This is a series of letters to a fictitious E.N. Igami ('imagine' when read reversed) with information on how to use a card punch and what can be done with it, particularly from a conjurer's perspective. It is one of the few resources available on card punches. It also reproduces a few passages from older books that cover punch work.

Several gambling demonstrations are detailed, including a Dai Vernon Bridge Deal as well as poker and blackjack routines. Other routines have more of a mental slant. Ray Grismer also explains his system for placement...
