In Rediscovered Wonders you will find the following tricks and routines:
THE INDESTRUCTIBLE RIBBON: A ribbon wrapped in paper. You cut both things with scissors but, mysteriously, the ribbon is intact. Do this one under their noses. No sleights, fakes or gimmicks whatsoever.
SNAPPY: A great variation of the above but this time with a rubber band. You cut both rubber band and paper but the band remains intact. Great for close-up performance.

"I've been performing this over the past few days and more than one spectator has been convinced that I possess ESP. It's that strong." - Tommaso Guglielmi
"Another phenomenal effect by the Unnamed Magician. If you like thought of card tricks or coincidence tricks, this is a steal for the price." - Tony Bianco
A truly remarkable coincidence. A deck is shuffled and divided into two halves. The spectator thinks of a card in their half, the magician thinks of a card in his half, and when the two halves are simultaneously dealt through, the two cards turn up at the same time!... $12 Magic, Fun and GamesArthur Setterington ... and because of this, is sometimes overlooked.

Peter first became fascinated by magic at the age of eight after his uncle showed him some magic tricks using cards, coins, matches and chalk. But it was the cards that held his deepest interest, and so began a learning process that continues to the present day.
Peter’s chief mentor was, and still is, Roy Walton. Others whom he met and had a profound influence on his path include, Gordon Bruce, Andy Galloway, Tommy Frederick, Fred Robinson, Dave Campbell, Eric Mason, Ken Brooke, Peter Kane, Alex Elmsley, Pat Page, Phil Goldstein, Gene Maze, Richard Kaufman and Dai Vernon.

Bridge was introduced in the late 19th century and is a derivative of Whist which appeared in England in the 16th century. Today's popular version "Contract Bridge" was perfected by Harold S. Vanderbilt, American multi-millionaire and three-time America's Cup winner, in 1925. It incorporated many of the most popular principles and also produced a scoring table.
The game of bridge is as rich in strategies and tactics as chess, but it is a much more social game where four players play in teams of two against each other. There is also a larger surprise component since you do not see the cards your opponents hold whereas in chess you clearly see your opponents position and you can study it...  (6th May 1943 - )
When Hideo was thirteen years old, he purchased a book of card magic for beginners but he didn't have a deck of cards. He went to a department store to buy one and asked a saleslady, 'Where can I buy a deck of
cards?' She asked, 'What are you going to use it for?' he answered, 'To perform magic.' She pointed to a corner of the store where there was a Tenyo Magic Counter. He had never known that magic apparatus was sold to the general public. He bought a set of Multiplying Billiard Balls and both marked and
stripper decks. This was the beginning of his magic career.
He went to work part-time as a magic demonstrator for Tenyo when he was nineteen years old while attending... ★★★★★ $4 The Magic ArtDonald Holmes ... were to form "a complete library on the Art of Magic." Unfortunately, he abandoned the undertaking (for what reason we do not know) after writing and publishing the first volume, which he called The Magic Art. It is a book with which the average young magician of today is wholly unacquainted, but one which he should put on his reading list for early attention.
The "meat" of the book is found in Chapters 2, 3, and 4, which cover exactly two hundred pages. So far as we know, Chapter 2 is unique in magical literature. It is called Some Accessories and Artifices of General Utility, but it is... ★★★★★ $15 21 Card TricksPeter Duffie This book has nothing to do with the "21 Card Trick". However it features twenty-one of the best card tricks Peter Duffie has to offer. Three other individuals significantly contributed to this book. They are Roy Walton, Gene Maze and Marty Kane. It can get hardly any better when it comes to cards.
1st edition, 2000
BETWEEN THE ACES: Very slowly you deal cards onto the table and a spectator stops you anywhere. He notes the card stopped at - it is placed on top of the deck and the dealt cards dropped on top with absolutely no moves. Despite the fairness of the procedure, the selected card is now... ★★★★★ $12 Kato on EstimationHideo Kato ... - ... Now, he places the selection on top of the tabled packet, puts the remaining cards on top of it, and squares the deck. The magician cuts off a packet of cards, states that the selection is not among them, and places them aside. He repeats cutting off packets of card and discarding them until only one card remains. The last card is the selection.
- BY THE CHANGE OF HIS VOICE
Magician finds spectator's card by his change in intonation while counting.
- PLEASE MAKE A MAGICAL PASS
The spectator shuffles the deck and places it face down on the table. He cuts the cards and looks at the face-card...
★★★★★ $5 Five Mind Reading Acts Exposedunknown Five Mind Reading Acts Exposed was written prior to 1940 and upon reading the 12 pages of instruction you realize that everything old is new again. Although all the routines are designed for a two person act some of the ideas contained can be adapted for a single performer. No author is credited and it is a compilation of secrets of acts of that era.
Act No. 1 is the reading of dates on coins sealed in envelopes. Today’s mentalists could combine this with Psychometry and Cold Reading to use as a feature in their act.
Act No. 2 is a preamble to the question answering act of Falkenstein.... ★★★★★ $4 Ambi-ga-boxBen Morris-Rains ... provided that you have the patter for it. Since no patter is given.

Scott’s corporate clients include food and beverage giants like Nestle, Heinz and Coca-Cola, as well as companies from many other fields, such as Hewlett-Packard, Micron Computers, Dollar and Hertz car rental agencies, Bank of America and many more. One of Scott's mentors was Aldo Colombini, who referred to Scott in his Linking Ring column as, "one of our best stand up and close up performers."
In addition, Scott has written many books on magic and starred in a DVD teaching his material, receiving rave reviews from organizations, magazines, and individual magicians, both amateur and professional. Scott has also been a regular columnist... ★★★★★ $5 Magic with Giant CardsFred Castle ... take many small packet tricks and perform them with jumbo or giant cards. I did myself the famous 'Twisting the Aces' with jumbo cards, and I developed a method to do the 'mirror move' with jumbo cards. The visual impact of a close-up card trick done with jumbo cards is a multiple of the impact one can achieve with regular cards.
1st edition, 1981; 19 pages.
Reviewed by Francesco Nicolo No illustrations. The author provides some tips but the text is too succinct and thus it is not very helpful. I do not recommend it, despite the good rating. ★★★★★ $6 Magic Annual 1937 (Hugard's Annual of Magic)Jean Hugard In general magic books cover a certain subject area. Here a slice through time is offered. The 'Magic Annual' describes the best and most popular effects from one year. (There is a second volume in this series Magic Annual 1938-1939.)
Max Holden writes in the introduction: "Some of the items are new, some are old tricks given a novel twist, while other effects, although known in a general way, are now published in detail for the first time - among these latter, the Hugard Fire Eating Act, Hugard's Bullet Catching Feat and my own presentation of Smoke Pictures.

In 2008 he received a trophy from the International Brotherhood of Magicians for his writing on Al Flosso: An American Original 1895-1976.
He was first presented as a one-man surrealist magic show (Out Of Order) by
avant-garde and Broadway producer Lyn Austin and her Music-Theatre Group in
1988. In 1989 he trekked to the Base Camp of Mount Everest with the American
Everest Team and entertained Sherpas, monks and climbers. Other one-man
shows: After Magic?, Pyschodyssey, and Time For Magic.
In 2005, he recreated John Mulholland's performance at Mulholland's... ★★★★★ $10 The Circle FanRicky Kinosa Most every card man can do a pressure fan and many can do one-handed fans but can you do a circular fan, one that goes around 360 degrees and closes on itself? There are a few methods in circulation. Ricky explains the one developed by Toyozane Sanada. Sanada is a very creative Japanese magician who invented among other things the Sanada gimmick which is very effective for sponge ball work. However, there is no good explanation of how to do the Sanada fan in print. You can find it demonstrated on a number of videos but there is no good explanation that teaches the technique at least not in English.

This is a licensed reproduction of the famous Magicassette and MagiCD series created by Martin Breese - now owned by Lybrary.com.
Reviewed by Joe Libby As one who also performs ventriloquism and magic, I found this recording a delightful memoir. Mr. Blake does not teach any vent here, but he does share some good tricks and performance tips. He also has some great stories about his performing days. Recommended.
