Retro-Gravity

Devin Knight
Retro-Gravity by Devin Knight

If you haven't heard of Retro-Gravity, it was a self-levitation that Al Mann and Devin Knight created over 20 years ago. It has been kept under wraps all these years. Whispered about on the underground, and hinted that it would be released someday... That day is NOW.

Retro-Gravity allows you to levitate 2 to 4 inches in the air. It is a special gimmick you attach to your shoe and once done is completely invisible. Any time you wear your shoes, you are ready to levitate. Anywhere, anytime under any conditions! This means you can walk around in a restaurant, party or out door festival and levitate...

Big, visual effects that make mentalism suitable for stage, platform, or club use. No card tricks, nail writers or close up pads. Instead, forty colorful and powerful mental effects in all categories from a Bargain Prediction Chest to ESP.

Almost all are for a one man mental act, making use...

Gozinta Boxes Revisited

Lubor Fiedler & Chris Wasshuber
Gozinta Boxes Revisited by Lubor Fiedler & Chris Wasshuber

Lubor Fiedler's Gozinta Boxes is my all time favorite illusion. It has been so ever since I first saw it performed decades ago. I love the simplicity, clarity, and impossibility of the effect. Two boxes. One clearly larger than the other, because one fits into the other. But wait - now the larger one is smaller and the smaller one is larger. Every child can understand the impossibility of this. It transcends any language or cultural barrier. Since no explanation is necessary the magic first happens on a very deep visceral level. But then when the mind kicks in and tries to find an explanation...

East Coast Tour 2017: Lecture Note Bundle by Devin Knight

All the PDFs and videos from the CD that Devin Knight sold at his final East Coast Lecture tour. This is the bargain of the century as it would cost you $91.00 to buy these separately. Each PDF fully explains how to make up each trick. To buy these tricks ready made from a magic dealer would cost over $300.00.

defrauded; but after all it is the old story of Columbus and the egg:—very easy once you see it done.

In no branch of criminal industry in recent years has greater progress been made than in the polite practice of card-sharping. The methods and manners of the last decade are out-of-date to-day; a new race of cheats, aristocrats of their trade, has sprung up, and you rarely find one of them in the long roll of swindlers who pass yearly through the docks of our criminal courts. I except, of course, the professors of the “three-card trick,” a low trade to which no really talented card...

Hill-ucinations

George Hills
Hill-ucinations by George Hills

Excerpt from the foreword by Duncan Fletcher:

Now he has compiled a book which should appeal to all magicians as there is something for everyone; the close-up worker (coins, cigarettes, sewing needles, wool, lexicon cards), the children's entertainer, the mentalist and the 'card trick' enthusiast, and scattered throughout are suggestions concerning adaptations of well-known effects. Some of these tricks can be made up with little preparation - others like all good tricks require some preparations, but none are difficult to the performer who is accustomed to preparing his own props. No one...

Cameron Francis

Cameron Francis... put these props to good use and performed his share of birthday parties, school events and Cub Scout meetings. During college, however, magic fell to the wayside as he spent more time focusing on becoming an actor (Plus it was really hard to get a date wearing a ruffled shirt and black cape).

One day, while attending graduate school in Washington D.C., Cameron stumbled into a magic store. As soon as he opened the door and saw the colorful apparatus lining the walls and smelled the aroma of stale sponge balls in the air, he was instantly smitten again. Walking out with a copy of The Royal Road to Card Magic and a Scotch and Soda set, Cameron's interest in magic was rekindled. Although...

Sharps and Flats: A Complete Revelation of The Secrets of Cheating at Games of Chance and Skill by John Nevil Maskelyne...
As an early opponent of spiritualism, he built early fame on his duplication of the Davenport Brothers' spirit cabinet act. Maskelyne's achievements were plentiful and varied, including his work with David Devant at the Egyptian Hall, and of course, his co-authorship with Devant of Our Magic, one of the greatest conjuring texts of all time. He also wrote books on spiritualism—one early in the battle, one late—which still make for remarkably good reading. And he wrote this classic treatise on crooked gambling, the "sharps" and "flats" in the title referring to the cheaters and their...

Arthur Dailey Photographer Extraordinaire by Arthur A. Dailey

This is a collection of articles, some written about and some written by Arthur Dailey. They give a flavor of what kind of person Arthur was. There are many extraordinary things one could say about Arthur, ranging from his magnificent photographs to his work as advertisement man. But perhaps the best way to understand Arthur is to examine the company he kept. Friends like Leo Burnett, the father of the modern ad industry, artists like E. William Gollings and Joe De Yong and researchers such as Elmo Scott Watson.
