The spectator is now given an invisible mobile phone and is asked to pretend to dial the number. As this happens the performer watches the actions and at the same time writes some numbers on a blank card. This is placed face down on the table. The performer now opens the telephone number slip and reads out the number. When the face down card is turned over it reveals exactly the same number. Both cards can be given to another spectator to confirm.

The spectator is asked to place the...

Cristian takes on the classic B'wave plot, and comes up with creative ideas for making it a highlight in any magic show or mentalism act.

He touches on close-up and stage performances, and adds unique twists designed to stun modern audiences. Hidden among the unique presentations are ways to turn an entire, previously examined deck of cards into a blank deck (no deck switch), or how to predict a number simply thought of by a spectator (nothing written down, no pre-show work or verbal forces) - all in the context of the B'wave plot.

As seen in his previous work on the Invisible Deck, his presentations...

Jazz Aces was inauspiciously introduced to the magic world in 1971 when Peter Kane published Another Card Session. It was a fortuitous event because it appeared about the same time the Elmsley Count was gaining favor with magicians from coast to coast. Like weeds in an open field, packet tricks were also popping up everywhere. Furthermore, Kane's routine clarified the transposition aspects of basic Ace Assemblies. Using only 8 principal "players" (cards), his action procedure was simple and direct. Best of all, the final transposition was squeaky clean. As a result it did not take long for Jazz...

You start with four cards that are blank on both sides. A magic gesture and they have suddenly backs and faces.

This very first issue of "Aether" features an exploration of Gregg's "Ink Flight" effect. The concept is stunning: a spectator's signature travels across space to appear on a selected card.

The effect requires the following props:

• Blank face cards
• A forcing deck
• A set of "Buddha papers"
• A Himber wallet

An incredible coincidence plus an incredible prediction that looks completely impossible. You present two decks to a spectator. They have a free choice (no force). The spectator takes one deck, and you take the other. Both of you shuffle your deck. Then the decks are exchanged. Each one gives their deck a final cut. Then each one puts their deck into their pocket. Then cards are withdrawn from the top of the deck and put face up on the table until a match of the face appears. Once a match appears the magician presents a prediction that was on the table the whole time in which he predicted...

Epic Spin is a collection of routines using the Pi number. Although the effects involve numbers of Pi, there is no math involved, largely. And all the routines are very easy to perform and mostly self-working.

The only preparation is that on a blank business card or on the back of one of your business cards print the Pi number up to 100 decimal places, as given in this ebook. Pop this card in your pocket or wallet. Using this single business card you are set to perform a dozen cool and impressive routines.

Two cards are face-down on the table next to each other. When you turn over the first one it is blank on its face. When you turn over the second one a big hole appears in the center. When you turn them back face-down the big hole vanishes. It can hardly get any stranger.

There are 2 routines explained and with some interesting variations. All the routines are easy and self-working but pack a solid punch in terms of impact. The unique feeling which your participant experiences will remain with them for a very long...

The Wild Card effect has been one of my favorite packet effects from as far back as I can remember and is indisputably one of the best card packet effects of all time. Unfortunately, in its original form, it does not meet my concept of good magic. It does not answer the basic audience dilemma - "Why does he do it ?"

I know transformations (anything that changes) are part of a magic effect, but there ought to be some reason for it. If a performer changes blank paper to currency notes, that's logical, it's something everyone in the audience would like to do. If he changes a silk to an egg,...

This ebook includes a nice introduction to Extra Sensory Perception (ESP) and a range of tricks from quick effects to longer routines. Note that many of the effects described require some double-face ESP cards.

Binary Squared can be performed for one person or for many people. It can so easily become part of your EDC, as you can hand draw or print the images onto five business cards or even less if you used double-sided blank ones. Alternatively, you can put the provided images on your phone or if you put them on your social media account you can even use a spectator's phone.

To become a master in anything you have to pay attention to the details. This ebook is all about details, the details of sleight of hand with cards.

Excerpt from the foreword:

Here numerology is only a presentational angle and a very interesting one at that, as you will find out within these pages. You absolutely do not need to know anything about numerology at all to perform these effects.

All the routines explained in this manuscript are easy and self-working but very stunning from the participant's perspective. And you will just be using one or two business cards to perform these effects. So that is as minimal as minimal can get.

A participant secretly assigns any number of his choice to each letter of his first name. And hence the name Subliminal Numerology. ...

However, the real final surprise will leave the whole audience speechless, because all the rest of the cards in the deck will be revealed to be completely blank.

"When everyone zigs, zag." - Marty Neumeier

99% of all the ACAANS out there either look or feel, or both, the same. This is an attempt to stand out in that 1%.

Here is what happens:

A deck of cards is handed to someone in the crowd. They point to a stranger - who freely names any card. That person points to someone else - who names any number from 1 to 52.

You take back the deck and spread it out. Every card has a big, bold number on its back - from 1 to 52 in perfect order. You count to the named number. The card is revealed to be the exact card they named.

Mind-blowing?...

With nothing but 5 double blank business cards and a few minutes of one time preparation, you will be able to carry a mind bending miracle in your wallet or pocket, where you can read up to 4 different thoughts of a participant. Based on the universally popular theme of countries and cities of the world, this absolute stunner...

Originated by Val Andrews. Edited by T. A. Whitney. The perfect test for the performer who wants to create a name as a mentalist. A true classic of mentalism. Use it for parlor or stage. It involves a number of slates and blank business cards. Everything appears fair and straightforward.

A spectator thinks of a number. Another thinks of a card (no force). The number and card are used to locate a word in a large dictionary. All of this is predicted by the mentalist.

A tried and proven winner from the mind of Val Evans, as revealed by his performing partner, Dr. Gene Okkah.
