1st edition 2018, 44 pages. $149 Shuber ViseChris Wasshuber The Shuber Vise is a card guard that has a card press integrated. I always wanted to combine these two functions into one small enough accessory to fit into my pocket. The Shuber Vise does exactly that. It is not wider than a deck of cards and is only somewhat longer and thicker, yet it perfectly protects your cards and keeps them under pressure so that they do not warp or bend, which every deck of cards does after some use without being pressed flat. With decks that cost $20 and more these days, it pays to take good care of your cards.
If your deck is already warped and bent, no problem.... $10 Get the Second BookingBrian T. Lees Competition for performances today is more intense than it every was. Organizations are comparing information on large numbers of performers. Loyalty remains. But being the previous entertainer, only for the reason he/she worked it before, is not always the hiring factor. Individuals/agents are now looking beyond the cost. The non-documented elements are starting to carry a lot more weight in the hiring decision.
A dear friend once said that it is better to position yourself to be hired over and over, then to make one deposit and never perform again. That statement carries a lot of weight.... $14.99 Webb ManiaGregg Webb From the Foreword:
Magic is changing and a lot of the reason for this is that people's attention spans are shorter because of the pace of life today and more distractions.
We don't have the luxury of people dying for entertainment. There is too much entertainment and to compete, we have to get to the point quicker.
If you look at my magic a certain way, it is a direct result of chipping away at long tricks trying to distill them down.
The format follows Gregg's established style of illustrations and hand-lettered text.

$8 Outline of MysteryArthur Leroy Here are a devil's dozen effects, moves and miracles for the semi-professional that, for the most part, don't rely on external gimmicks. It's one of those rare books that, the more you read it, the more you'll appreciate it. Not written for the faint of heart. If you're after bold, professional magic, this is the book for you. (And yes, the title is a pun on H. G. Well's Outline of History. Kudos if you caught that.)

$8.50 Perpetual Calendar on a StickerGrant Stuart & Chris Wasshuber  Quickly find the weekday to any date between 1500 and 2299.
You will receive a perpetual Gregorian calendar, covering the years from 1500 - 2299, which is printed on one self-adhesive label of size 2.25" x 4" (54 mm x 100 mm). Below the calendar table are the instructions in three lines of text. If you do not need the instructions simply cut them off.
The sticker fits nicely on a case for a deck of playing cards, with the instruction portion bent over the lower edge. (See the photo.) Thus, the calendar fits without the instructions on the back of a poker-size playing card. The calendar... ★★★★★ $6.95 DestinedDavid Jonathan ...
The jokers are given to a spectator to hold, then a card is selected. The chosen card is shuffled and lost in the deck. The cards are spread face down and the spectator freely inserts the jokers face up around any single card, isolating it from the rest. This mystery card is now turned over to reveal that, incredibly, it is their selected card. The effect could end right here, but in an unexpected finale, the jokers are turned over to reveal a jaw-dropping prediction.
- Any deck can be used
- No gimmicks
- Multiple variations taught that are suitable for any skill level
- The prediction can be varied for the next performance
- Perfect for walk around or strolling environments
- Over 30 minutes of video instruction + a PDF guide

Chock full of sleights, flourishes, manipulations, routines and ideas you'll want to add to your act. Magic with thimbles is something that many of today's audiences haven't had the pleasure of seeing, which makes it new and different to them.

The Jordan effect, "The 1923 Card And Handkerchief Trick" can be found in The Sign of Exceptional Magic. The four queens, placed to the four corners of a handkerchief, travel one by one through the handkerchief and assemble.
The method involves a number of gaffed cards. Each gaff is made up of two cards which are hinged together with a cigarette paper. In theory, this double card looks like a single card.

1st edition 2020, length 5:30 $5 Isn't It Wonderful?Charles Bertram A history of magic interwoven with Charles Bertram's recollections.
From the introduction:
The profession of conjuring, if not the most ancient, is certainly one of the oldest professions in the world, and, before commencing my account of the efforts made by a humble professor of the art, I trust that the reader may be interested by a short sketch of its history. Without this, it is possible that he might receive a book relating to the conjurer's art with a shrug of the shoulders. But conjuring, if it has now drifted down to the level of mere entertainment, has played its part in the history... $5 The Napoleon MythHenry Ridgely Evans (We are carrying this ebook primarily because of the author, Henry Ridgeley Evans, who published several interesting books on conjuring.)
On its face the book is about the myth that Napoleon never existed. It was at one time a popular myth, hoax, or fake news as it would be called today. It also provides interesting lessons and insights on how myths can develop. Since there are a number of myths in the world of conjuring, this work can help one understand why and how some of the myths in magic may have developed.

★★★★★ $0 Fundamental TechniquesRoberto Giobbi This is the first lesson from Giobbi's Card College 1 & 2 Personal Instruction. It is made available free of charge so that you can experience the style of Giobbi's teaching and decide if you want to invest in the full course.
I personally think there is no better teacher of card magic alive today. Giobbi's style can at times be detail orientated, but then again if you want to reach the higher rungs of cardmanship, or cardwomanship, you need to pay attention to the details. Giobbi will take you by the hand and lead you through what can sometimes look like an impenetrable forest of moves, sleights, and techniques that look impossible... $30 Hidden Gems 3Mark Elsdon ...
