Senor Mardo brings you a complete analysis of the manipulation, routining, and presentation of that magical classic, The Cups and Balls. Seven beautiful routines devoted to classic close-up and night club magic effects.
We've wanted to offer this hard-to-find title for years and are now able to do so... and at a price that won't break the bank (originally sold for the equivalent of $35.00 in today's money when first released).
Four complete routines are presented in this book, with more than 30 illustrations:
- One cup routine
- Two cup routine
- Three cup routine
- Mardo's "Impromptu Routine" that may even save your act, as it did his, when his luggage was lost. This routine alone is worth the price of the book.
- Mardo also provides separate routines on the Homing Ball, the Shell Game, and Sponge Balls. A total of seven routines in all.
"The best on the topic." - Pete Biro
"An extensive project and should be of interest to all magicians. It's pure sleight-of-hand and as such is real magic." - John J. Crimmins, Jr.
Magic World Publishers revised edition features a new chapter and three added illustrations.
