★★★★★ $6 Del-Ardo's Private Sealed Envelope Reading MethodW. G. Magnuson & Devin Knight  Del-Ardo was a professional medium of the old school. He developed many ways to read messages in a sealed envelope, but this was his favorite method and was the one he used most. This is also the same method that was used by psychic, Jason Michaels, during his career, with a few of his improvements. Devin Knight is still using this improved method to this day.
This method is also being used by phony mediums today who are working the spiritualist churches and camps because it is almost 100% foolproof and there is almost no chance of getting caught cheating. The method is that good.

Audiences enjoy seeing the psychic entertainer reveal the inside secrets of fraudulent mediums. And now, thanks to this rare old manuscript, you can. We love the title, for it really sets the mood, as the manifestations described take place in the dark, around the séance table. This is just the ticket for hosting a regular series of entertaining séances at your home, or that of your client.
And that's not all. Only in this edition is revealed a modern-day source for obtaining a... ★★★★★ $10 Conjurers' Monthly Magazine Volume 2 (Sep 1907 - Aug 1908)Harry Houdini

★★★★★ $49.50 The Legendary Kabbala (1971-1981)Jon Racherbaumer ... Men, too hip for each other, too hip for most rooms, and too hip for their own good. Magic for magicians took hold and had to be magician-proof. Card problems were subjected to new and stringent conditions and restrictions and strategies of misdirection-within-misdirection were the order of the day. This was the world Kabbala wanted to explore, exploit, and harvest.
The Kabbala (1971-81) was part of the information pipe-line, a supplement, complement, and co-conspirator. Although it did not start out to be an alternative voice, it became combative counterpoint to Pallbearers Review and... $49.50 Conjurers ChronicleWilford Hutchinson This house organ ran from May 1919 until February 1940.

The most interesting contribution is Graham Adams' Card Work, a series of his favorite effects, moves and in particular his take and fondness of Erdnase.

One can lower the cost to below $400 by leaving out some non-essential components or replacing them with cheaper alternatives.

Originally, some of these effects were considered for a Nelson book of psychic effects, but they were deemed "too good" for general distribution and use. Each is a masterpiece, complete, with full patter. The entire program is one of audience participation. Not only does the performer conclusively prove his ability to read the thoughts in the minds of various spectators, but attempts to prove the existence of mental telepathy between the minds of selected members of the audience. There is not just a single climax, but ... ★★★★★ $6 Emergency Full Evening ShowJoseph Elon Kemp ... know what to do in case of such an emergency.

★★★★★ $14.90 [S]witchJulien Losa![[S]witch by Julien Losa](images/180/switch.jpg) [S]Witch is a great impromptu billet technique, created by Julien during years of performances on cruise ships and in theatre shows. The effect is simple: You ask someone to draw or write anything on a small paper/business card. In only two very fair moves, you can duplicate their thoughts.
Yes we're talking about a switch, but such a good one. It's done in front of your spectator's eyes, and even though you magicians know there is one in play, you can't see it. It is that strong. This method is a real worker, performed hundreds of times by Julien for real audiences. A powerful secret kept underground... $10 I'm Not AfraidMackenzie Gant & B. W. McCarron  If you suffer from any kind of performance anxiety (and Kellar, Thurston, Houdini, and many prominent present-day performers have had to deal with it, too), this could be the best purchase you'll ever make.
There's nothing like the healthy satisfaction or "natural high" that comes from giving a great performance. Yet if you suffer from performance anxiety (commonly known as stage fright), then you're missing out on one of the best feelings that entertainers can experience. When you're ready to rid yourself of these demons, this manuscript contains 40 proven ideas that have helped others like you to put aside... ★★★★★ $15 Aspects of Mentalism / Mentalism A La ModePeter Wilker ... new and unpublished or some which just appealed to me. The proof of the pudding, however, is in the eating: if you, dear reader, enjoy the book it was well worth writing it. If not, I am really sorry I did and hope you'll forgive me for having taken up too much of your precious time.
There is one admission I have to make right at the start I do not consider the use of cards by a mentalist as mental magic, and I believe the audience thinks likewise: anything done with playing cards is a card trick. I may be completely wrong in my belief; nevertheless cards are excluded from this book.

This is due to the fact that they are on the lookout for a sleight that is never employed by me. Needless to mention, the only originality claimed is for certain subtleties that I have introduced in the working of this trick which, old as it is, seems to be very little known among present-day magicians.
Effect:
The performer removes a small bottle from his pocket, opens it and pours four white beans onto the table. Immediately picking them up, he lays them on the palm of his left hand. With his right hand, he places one bean behind the lobe of each ear. The two beans that remain... ★★★★★ $12 MPAC 2Unknown Mentalist
You can almost proplessly divine the exact date of birth of an utter stranger in under a minute. This routine works best in a one-on-one situation where the performer has met the participant for the very first time. And you can also, if you want, instantly repeat it for different people in the same group of audience. This impromptu routine is a lot of fun to do.
You do not need to have MPAC to learn and perform this one.
With this routine you prove to the participant that based on a few general characteristics related to her you are able to divine her exact birthday. This is the opposite... $12 Hill-ucinationsGeorge 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... $20 Confidential Mental SecretsGene Marvin ... above the average magic trick that there can be no comparison - and usually there is none.
People know that magicians pull rabbits from hats, saw girls in two and float them in the air. They also know that all this is done by clever trickery. Consequently, the average magician had better be one heck of a performer or he will have something in common with only one other act - the hypnotist. Both put people to sleep.
A mental magician has one very important edge when it comes to performing. People believe that he can do what he says he can. Mentalism is literally in the same stage of... ★★★★★ $20 Dead Reckoning: on steroidsUnnamed Magician
"A really powerful spell-to-your-card effect. The title says it all, it is Bannon's "Dead Reckoning" except on steroids." - Tommaso Guglielmi
"For a long time I've been performing "Dead Reckoning" by John Bannon. It's one of my go-to effects in my repertoire. But that changed today. "Dead Reckoning: On Steroids" is a marvelous improvement on the original. It is unbelievably deceptive and impossible to reverse engineer, and it replaces "Dead Reckoning" in my repertoire. Thanks Unnamed Magician for this splendid creation." - Brian Draven
