Unthinkable LocationUnnamed Magician
For those of you who own several of my products, you've probably realized by now that card locations are my area of expertise. And so we're back with another location that I think is a total fooler. The best part is that it can be performed with any regular deck. Very few magicians have been able to work this one out when I showed it to them - so I am confident that with this you will be fooling all your magician friends (even the knowledgeable ones).
The main takeaway of the ebook, however, is not the aforementioned effect but rather the shuffling principle that I will be teaching you.... | $20 $15 to wish listPDF |
The 'Holy Grail' of Phone EffectsUnnamed Magician
"This totally fooled me! It's VERY clever and VERY deceptive." - Marc Paul
"By far the best solution I've seen for this card plot. I have numerous unpublished solutions of my own but none are as deceptive as this one. When the Unnamed Magician first shared the basic idea with me, I was blown away." - Tommaso Guglielmi
"It really does live up to its title." - Alexander Javier
"An outstanding method. The creative thought process that is needed to come up with something like this is something I can't even begin to imagine." - Tony Bianco
"A mystery for the ages. I can't see anyone, layman or magician, working... | $20 to wish listPDF |
IntuitionUnnamed Magician
"A very nice mentalism routine. And the method is devilish!" - Tony Bianco
"After I was taught the method for this, I immediately smiled. It is super clever, you won't be disappointed." - Brian Draven
"Many of you know the Unnamed Magician by now. But I've had the privilege of knowing him for a long time now. Any time he creates a new routine and sends it to me, I always make time that very day just so I can see it. This routine is no different." - Tommaso Guglielmi
To mark my 1st year anniversary at Lybrary, I am (in collaboration with someone else) releasing something very special, which, if you like... | $20 to wish listPDF |
To Bombay and BeyondUnnamed MagicianSelected card at selected number.
This is a very clean "selected card at selected number" effect. The spectator selects a card, shuffles to lose the card, selects a number, and the card is miraculously found at the number. A performance video can be seen below.
Imagine:
The magician introduces a deck, spreads it face up to display that all the cards are different and in no particular order, and then hands it to the spectator. He invites them to cut off about a third of the deck and to look at the bottom card of the cut-off portion as their selection. The magician then asks them to thoroughly... | $20 to wish listPDF |
The GiftUnnamed MagicianAnother trick that fooled the best cardmen in the world.
"This is a fooler! The Unnamed Magician has created an impenetrable mystery that not even your magician friends will be able to figure out. It's really well constructed and how he gains the secret knowledge is ingenious!" - Marc Paul
"A truly diabolical method which will fool even the most knowledgeable of card magicians!" - Matt Baker
"There aren't many creators reaching the same standard as Unnamed Magician when it comes to creating real mind puzzling card effects; you need to be Alan Turing to break these codes. In this effect you are... | $20 to wish listPDF |
Three Shades of WonderUnnamed Magician
Imagine an impossible location, an astounding coincidence, and an inexplicable prediction ... all jammed into one routine. Three effects in one, using two spectators. That's Three Shades of Wonder, and it's a true showstopper. Read on.
Imagine:
The magician introduces a deck of cards. He hands it over to the spectators so they can examine it and verify that all the cards are different. Then, the magician splits the deck into two halves, placing one half in front of each spectator.
The magician explains (as he gives a demonstration) that both spectators are to take their half underneath... | $20 to wish listPDF |
The DWS PrincipleUnnamed Magician
This ebook is about a principle (a shuffling principle) that I discovered. More accurately, it is an extension of an already existing shuffling principle. In the original principle, the deck can be given one riffle shuffle at the end of a card location routine, after which the selected card can be located. In my variant principle, the deck can be given not one but two riffle shuffles at the end of a card location routine, after which the selected card can be located.
The ebook contains a detailed essay on both the original principle and the new principle, where the two principles are compared.... | $20 to wish listPDF |
Dead Reckoning: on steroidsUnnamed Magician
"A really powerful spell-to-your-card effect. The title says it all, it is Bannon's "Dead Reckoning" except on steroids." - Tommaso Guglielmi
"For a long time I've been performing "Dead Reckoning" by John Bannon. It's one of my go-to effects in my repertoire. But that changed today. "Dead Reckoning: On Steroids" is a marvelous improvement on the original. It is unbelievably deceptive and impossible to reverse engineer, and it replaces "Dead Reckoning" in my repertoire. Thanks Unnamed Magician for this splendid creation." - Brian Draven
"The main effect is good but the first bonus effect is beyond good."... | ★★★★★ $20 to wish listPDF |
Your Thought Is MineUnnamed Magician
"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! Read on.

Totally Impossible Location AgainUnnamed Magician
A location of a selected card under true test conditions. The deck is shuffled before and after the selection ... yet the card can be located. It's fooled many well-versed magicians, so laymen don't stand a chance. Read on. (There is a full performance video with a spectator attached below as well.)
Imagine:
The magician introduces a deck of cards - he spreads it face-up to show that all the cards are different. The spectator is invited to thoroughly examine and shuffle the deck.
The magician then explains (as he gives a demonstration) that they are to select a card by simply cutting... | ★★★★★ $15 to wish listPDF |
Rain Man Yet AgainUnnamed Magician
Note: For those of you who own Rain Man and Rain Man Again, this uses a completely different method.
Imagine:
The magician and the spectator are seated together at a table. The magician introduces a deck of cards, which he hands to the spectator - they are asked to examine and shuffle it thoroughly. Once they're done shuffling, the magician takes back the deck and holds it. He says, "I want you to generate a random number between 1 and 52. Of course, I could have you name one, but then you may think I psychologically influenced you towards a particular number or that I relied on you to think of a popular... | $20 to wish listPDF |
The ExceptionUnnamed MagicianThe trick that fooled the best cardmen in the world.
"'The Exception' totally fooled me. The method is diabolical. All the avenues to explanation are blocked. That's what an impossible location is supposed to do. And this trick does it." - Mike Powers
"'The Exception' is composed of several known and reliable methods arranged in a way that will make them unrecognizable to most students of card magic methodology. If you are looking for something quick and easy to add to your existing strolling set, this is probably not for you. However, if you're a fan of impossible locations that employ an ordinary... | ★★★★★ $20 to wish listPDF |
The SSSB PrincipleUnnamed Magician
This ebook is not about any particular effect but rather is about a principle that you can apply to certain types of effects in order to double their fool factor. The principle makes it possible to create the illusion of a shuffle where a shuffle wouldn't otherwise be possible. There are many effects in which the deck can only be cut at the end (not shuffled). With the application of this principle, you can create the illusion of a shuffle. Best of all, the illusion can be created with the spectator themself shuffling.
That's not to say this principle can be applied to just any effect.... | $20 to wish listPDF |
Double MiracleUnnamed Magician
An impromptu, gimmick-free, borrowed deck miracle. A location and divination of a selected card under test conditions. Read on.
Imagine:
The magician introduces a deck of cards. The spectator can thoroughly examine it, after which they can freely shuffle it for as long as they want in any way that they want.
Once they're done shuffling, the magician invites them to look through the deck (faces towards themself, backs towards the magician) and select any two cards that they like. Let's suppose they select the two black A's. They turn these face-up and leave them on the table.

ACAAN: another approach to an age-old plotUnnamed Magician
Note: For those of you who own ACAAN: A Fresh Approach to an Age-Old Plot, this uses a totally different principle.
Imagine:
The magician introduces a special deck of 52 cards, where each card is seen to have a number 1 through 52 printed on it. The spectators (two of them) are asked to verify that all the numbers are indeed different, that there aren't any duplicate numbers. The magician hands one spectator this special deck (in a face-down position) and says, "I want you to select a number 1 through 52. But instead of just thinking of a number 1 through 52, I want you to randomly select one. Like that, even you don't know... | $20 to wish listPDF |
Behind the Back DivinationUnnamed Magician
Imagine:
The magician introduces a deck of cards. The spectator can thoroughly examine it, after which they can freely shuffle it for as long as they want in any way that they want. Once they're done shuffling, the magician invites them to spread through the deck face down and select any two cards that they like. They leave these face down on the table. The magician then instructs them to turn one of them face-up - let's suppose it is the JS. As for the other one, the magician tells the spectator not to look at this card yet - it will be a mystery for the end.
The spectator is then... | ★★★★★ $7 to wish listPDF |

Move a Card: the 'Holy Grail' method for a classic plotUnnamed Magician
"Pretty sure Moe would have been fooled by this." - Ryan Schlutz
"A clever method for a memory demonstration." - Christian Grace
Note: The effect described below makes up less than half of the entire e-book. The rest of the e-book contains several other methods for the "Move a Card" plot.
The "Move a Card" plot goes all the way back to at least the 1930s, when it was popularized by Moe Seidenstein. Over the decades, many methods have been developed. But I believe this method is the 'Holy Grail' method, simply because of its impossible conditions. Among other conditions, any borrowed deck can be... | ★★★★★ $20 to wish listPDF |
Over the Phone Telepathy: on steroidsUnnamed Magician
Imagine:
The magician hands a business card to a spectator as he says to them "My assistant's number and name is on this card. I'm giving this information to you now because if I gave it to you after the selection, you might think I have 52 numbers or 52 names prepared, one for each possible outcome." With this said, he promises never to touch the business card again.
The magician then introduces a deck of cards, spreading it face up in front of the spectator. The spectator can see that all cards are present and that there are no duplicates.
The magician invites the spectator to... | $20 to wish listPDF |

After they are done shuffling, he asks them to cut off about a third of the deck. The spectator does that. The magician then sets aside the remainder of the deck and tells the spectator to just focus on the third they cut off.
The magician tells the spectator that they can shuffle the third if they want (not that it's necessary because moments ago, before cutting off the third, they shuffled the entire... | $20 to wish listPDF |

With this done, he closes the spread and turns the deck back face down, after which he turns his back to the spectator.

Simply cut off any amount of cards and look at the bottom card of the cut-off portion. Then, bury the cut-off portion somewhere into the middle of the remaining cards in order to lose your selected card. Once that is done, invite me to turn back around to face you."
