A blue backed deck is shown. A card is removed, and placed aside. The deck is spread face down. It is seen that all of the cards have blue backs, except for one card which has a red back. Two cards are now very randomly chosen, and their values are added together. Let's assume that the total is "13" (the actual total is up to you!). The deck is turned face up (in every instance) and the cards are dealt one at a time until the 13th (or whatever value was chosen) card is dealt. Let's say that the 13th card is the Queen of Clubs. The deck is now spread face down. Each and every card has a blue...

The Card Magic of LePaul

Paul LePaul
Read more about The Card Magic of LePaul by Paul LePaul...This work by LePaul has become a classic a long time ago. It is a must read for anybody who is seriously interested in card magic. LePaul was one of the 20th century's most admired card technicians. Here he teaches you 31 moves and 21 routines, beautifully explained in word and more than 300 photos showing the master at work.

Paul Fleming wrote:

No one who has seen the program of Paul Le Paul can doubt his ability as a performer; and no informed magician who reads The Card Magic of Le Paul will question that it is a real contribution to the literature of card conjuring.

The "new and different effects with playing cards," which are promised on the title-page, consist of 31 sleights and 21 tricks that are either new or are improvements or variations of old ones. The space is about equally divided between tricks and sleights. The tricks that the author divulges are not only good, but in some instances are almost...

The performer introduces another set of 5, with a little thought points to one of them and asks them to point a card in their pile which they think matches the performer's card. They do so, and it matches.

Phase 2: The performer draws one of the symbols on a business card and the spectator correctly guess which one has been drawn.

A Close-Up Mental Mystery with Business Cards

Effect:

The performer displays three business cards. One is handed to a spectator, who is instructed to write the name of a loved one on the blank side of the card. They then turn it face down on the other two cards, and mix them up so the location of this card is unknown to anyone. They lay them out in a row.

The performer then uses his mental abilities to correctly isolate the card with the name on it. Finally, without touching that card, he correctly reveals the name itself!

Greg Arce: "I can see this being something to easily carry around...
