• What Eugene Burger thought almost every magician missed out on completely (Episode 121)
• One thing performers do all the time that results in their performances becoming trivial without them even knowing it (Episode 122)
• The one-sentence description my performer friend Joel gives that nails his "brand"... and how Eugene Burger did exactly the same thing (Episode 123)
• Does this time machine determine your magic sensibilities? An insight into how tricksterism begins, takes hold and...

Harry Baron performed magic for over sixty years and was a Member of the Inner Magic Circle with the coveted Gold Star.

This download video features several tricks that Stephen teaches to children in his magic workshops and in one-on-one magic lessons for adults. They are all simple to master and great for any beginner in magic.

These episodes contain the following nuggets:

• The two (2) things every performance must have (Episode 40).
• The one thing you cannot sacrifice in performance - This is the biggest factor that makes bad magic bad (Episode 39). 
• The "notes" I got on my show from another performer... and the one throw-away comment that actually mattered (Episode 38).
• An obvious mistake magicians make every day that a Chicago police officer even noticed (Episode 37). 
• The "silk scarf snafu." The misunderstanding a new street performer...

From the inside cover: Magical Masterpieces is no mere fanciful title. It is an apt description of a selection from the accumulated repertoire of a practical magician whose outstanding characteristic is the painstaking perfection and stamp of individuality of all his productions. It is safe to say that if a new book of magic provides only one workable and suitable addition to the reader's store it is a sound investment. The magician...
