The magician then shows the glass bottle around on all sides and removes any large labels so you can see right through the bottle. Then the rubber bands are given back to the magician and the spectator holds the deck ready to throw it at the bottle. The magician holds the bottle with one hand on top of the bottle and one hand at the bottom. The spectator then throws the cards at the bottle and the magician 'catches' one of the cards IN THE BOTTLE! Inside the bottle the signed selection is immediately seen swirling around, the bottle still being sealed, of course! ★★★★★ $9.50 The Sympathetic Silks Teach-InLewis Ganson ... Supreme Magic Inc.

Written by one of the scholars of magic - John Mulholland. Ben Robinson, the expert on John Mulholland whom he researched for more than 30 years, writes in his introduction to this ebook:
"Quicker Than The Eye was John Mulholland's second book, and the first under solely his own name. It is a tale of adventure and creativity. The pages abound with names, dates, and thrilling stories of the great names in stage conjuring. It is an almost anecdotal history told in an easy-going, very readable style. Professionals today,... ★★★★★ $9 Close-Up to the PointPeter Duffie This was Peter Duffie's first solo book published on the heels of his hugely successful Alternative Card Magic and Contemporary Card Magic.

★★★★★ $15 SYNDee Christopher Since Uri Geller began bending spoons back in the 70's, this metal bending skill has fascinated all magicians and mentalists as well as captivating any audiences that bear witness to it.
Two coins are picked from a handful of change and held at finger tips, the spectator selects one and holds that in their hand, the performer begins to concentrate and gently wave the coin he is left with.
It begins to bend.
While the coin in plain sight is bending, the participant claims to feel the coin in their hand bending in synchronicity.
The hand is opened to reveal the newly bent coin... $12 How To Remember Names and Faces: How to Develop a Good MemoryRobert H. Nutt This classic work on memory, first published in 1943, is really two books in one!
The first part, The Mental Filing System, will teach you how to keep up to 100 things straight in your memory. This is taught in a clear, easy-to-understand manner, using many real-world examples of both the benefits of using the system, as well as the dangers of an untrained memory.
The author taught many of his memory courses in person, and this provides both value and a good knowledge of the questions you're likely to have.
The second part, How To Remember Names and Faces, deals in detail with the problem... ★★★★★ $10 Keep'em LaughingAldo Colombini The success of my previous comedy books ‘almost’ forced me to collect another incredible bunch of one liners and other funny material. The best compliment I had regarding these publications came from Ed Eckl (co-publisher of Precursor magazine), who said, “In the 60’s we had Robert Orben providing comedy material, now we have Aldo Colombini.”
Robert Orben was and still is my ‘hero’ and my mentor even though we have never met; so the words assume an even greater meaning to me. Here’s the content: HILARIOUS ONE LINERS, IRONIC AND FUNNY GRAFFITI, SMART HECKLERS REMARKS, and... ★★★★★ $5 36 Tricks With Fa-Ko CardsRonald Haines ... dignity they deserve!
There is much, MUCH more to being a magician than knowing the secrets of tricks, and as we said before, these tricks are definitely not "self-working." There is much that YOU have to do! Cards must be added to your regular pack, and after the effect, secretly removed. Or, one pack must be "switched" for another. The original FA-KO Pack advocated doing a routine of tricks with the gimmicked cards. We feel that it would be much better to use them as individual tricks — the little "miracles" possible by the use of gimmicked cards will add greatly to the other tricks... ★★★★★ $10 On The RopesAldo Colombini A compilation of wonderful rope routines. A funny cut and restored rope routine for kids; a unique routine in which six loops are counted, three of these loops link together and the other three change into a giant loop with three knots (no gimmick); and Rope and silks combination.
There are also two rope routines by Ronald Dayton (a comedy effect and a rope through neck effect) and more. 84 illustrations. No gimmicks and all the routines except the first one use the same rope over and over again (no cutting).

★★★★★ $25 Lost LuggageStefan Olschewski Imagine you are booked to do a 30 minute mentalism show and all your luggage gets lost on the plane. It is Sunday and all shops are closed. What would you do without your props, without special wallets, magnets, glue, scissors, thumb tips or nail writers – literally without anything?
"Wow, what inspired thinking. One is tempted to deliberately lose his luggage just to give these routines a spin. Highly recommended!" - Ben Harris
Necessity is the mother of invention. Stefan once had to cope with such a situation and this is what he came up with. A complete act of high impact mentalism that... $35 Urban Legend: the legend of Albert WalkerMichael Paul ... of ultra-sharp razor blades, and regurgitates them tied together on a length of string.

You'll see how Michael has created stunning visuals, a heart stopping story line, and a hook your audience will never forget.... $35 InsideDaniel Madison ... irrelevant or impractical, routines built from no more than combinations of pre-existing sleights, and ideas, that I simply didn't want to represent my most personal project to date.
Each section has been edited and in most cases re-written to remove my influence on your interpretation of how one should perform an effect. To inspire your unique persona and encourage your creativity I have simplified the learning experience by removing patter and suggested script. I did not feel it fair to offer additional thougt as my outlook today differs dramatically from my thoughts and understanding... ★★★★★ $10 Chair Suspension NotesKyle Peron Tips on performing and presenting the chair suspension illusion

Pull on the rope and the knot jumps away leaving the rope restored. New method.
- MUCH ADO ABOUT KNOTTING (Karrell Fox): The perfect climax after a knot routine (or any rope routine). Full of comedy. You use a spectators watch and a piece of rope. One of the most commercial routines ever.
- TIGHT ROPE (Aldo Colombini): Over a dozen effects tied together to create a unique routine. Use regular rope. A feature in Aldo's act for years.
★★★★★ $5 Sealed MysteriesBurling Hull This is one of the earliest publications which has Burling Hull's Svengali deck described. Hull called it originally the "Cards Mysterious". Even in this early publication he complains about unauthorized copies being sold by unscrupulous dealers. A hundred years later and nothing has changed. We still have magic retailers and manufacturers producing and selling illegal and unauthorized copies of magic products.
One thing has changed though over the last 100 years - the use of Bicycle cards. Hull writes:
One of the objections to the trick is that the design of the backs are that of Bicycle... ★★★★★ $20 My First 20 or so YearsDan Harlan Harlan's greatest hits with previously unreleased material.

★★★★★ $3 The RnB Project: Oddpen PredictionRaphaël Czaja An effortless Open Prediction effect!
You bring a red backed prediction out of your pocket along with a blue backed deck of cards.
"Have you ever been in a situation in which you regretted not following your first intuition? Intuition is a very intriguing concept for scientists and psychologists. It provides us with beliefs that we cannot necessarily justify. Today, we're going to re-enact one of those experiments and hopefully this may lead to a successful ending."
You deal the cards face down one by one on the table as you ask the spectator to tell you to stop when she 'feels' it... $7 Only 3FlyMS Only 3Fly is one of MS' pet effects with 3 coins.

★★★★★ $5 Prediction ImpossibleRaphaël Czaja EFFECT #1: The magician opens up a card wallet displaying some playing cards torn in four pieces, each of them held by a rubber band. He explains, "Those are a few of the wrong predictions I've made in the past. Since then, I've learnt to keep being positive. For example, this one was wrong at the time it was made, but what if it was just right today?" You move this one aside and pocket the rest.
A spectator selects any two-digit number up to 50. The deck is dealt accordingly to make up a card, selecting a value and a suit. Despite the huge range of possible outcomes, the prediction that... ★★★★★ $12 Blindsight 2Devin Knight ... has the ability to detect colors sight unseen. The performer shows some opaque envelopes and four different large colored cards. The four cards are placed inside the 6 x 9 envelopes and mixed so the participant has no idea which envelope contains which colored card. Next the envelopes are held up one at a time in front of the participant. The performer asks the participant to attempt to use Blindsight (the ability to see colors, sight unseen in your mind) to determine which color is in each envelope.
The participant says which color he thinks is inside the first envelope. The performer... ★★★★★ $20 Chan Canasta Live on Television March 18th 1960Chan Canasta The download DVD is a complete Chan Canasta television broadcast from a 1960's BBC TV Show. You see a professional entertainer perform, how he controls his spectators, and how he builds up the effects.
Chan first performs a few card effects and closes with a book test. In the beginning spectators take a few cards each and Canasta divines which cards each one has. Then two spectators take one card from a full deck each and they magically take the same card. Later a spectator takes two cards from a deck and puts each one in one of his pockets, without Canasta looking, but again Canasta knows... Displaying 1513 to 1536 (of 1673 products)
