It runs around $90 to $135. I got it for $30 when it was out of print because the book had a small water stain on it. The trick work just fine despite the water stain. It is also available for around $17 on L&L's E Publishing website... which drives down the resale of the actual book.

Exactly... that was a typo on my part. Exactly. The audience shouldn't ever see the method.

:) Welcome to my world. I spend a lot of time just checking to see if certain books are available or at what price... or even checking to see what outrageous prices some of the books I own are selling for. I'll admit to checking the Magic Cafe just to see what books are being sold. Over the...

There are many rooms in the house of magic. Some are performers, some just like practice, some like developed presentation pieces, some just like the moves, some collect secrets, others collect books, some collect gimmicks and others collect cards. If you are finding joy, then good for you...

For books like that, you just need to keep an eye out on the Magic Cafe's Books for Sale section and on eBay. The book was written by Stephen Minch and published by Hermetic Press. Hermetic Press was sold to Penguin around five years ago, so they have the rights to the book. I suspect it will...

@Al e Cat Dabra - no worries. It is more apparent on their regular website when effects that sell for $50 are listed for $5 or when you look at out of print books that sell for $100+ and they have the download for $9.99. That is a good flaw to have.:)

Blank deck. Print letters on clear address labels and stick off center on left side of card. Be aware of orientation if spectator is beside you or across from you.

Justin: Welcome to magic and welcome to the forums. Kids magic is a lot of fun and it is important that you like kids. Kids are not easier to perform for than adults-- they will call you out if you mess up and will start doing other things (talking, walking, etc.) if your show isn't...

Yes.

Decks warp because of the relative humidity of the edges of the cards compared to the inside of the cards. That is, humidity can be absorbed through the edges of the cards. Take a piece of paper and drip water on the edge. See how it curls up? The same thing happens with cards. You will...

Probably the most complete collection of sleights is the Card College series. Other books to consider: Principia - Harapan Ong Secrets of So Sato Pure Imagination - Scott Robinson Bloomberg Laboratories Revolutionary Card Technique - Marlo

I'm pretty sure you and I could pull it off... ;)

I think he is trying to say that his bookshelf is only five feet long. He just needs a longer bookshelf.

Since I'm able to see your prior post that I deleted (because your question exposed part of the method), I have a better idea of what you are asking. First off, any force of the top card would work for your purposes - riffle, slip, classic, under spread, etc. If you want to deal cards, your...

Banachek's Pychokinetic ("PK") Touches is a booklet that explains the routine.

Luck.

My default storage for a deck is to have the four aces on top. Do an effect that doesn't disturb that order and you are ready for a four ace trick. In Royal Road, see page 125 - "The Obliging Aces" and page 224 - "Arrangements." There is a great John Gustaferro effect called "Either Or"...

There are good methods for doing this in the book Mnemonica. An easy method is to turn to another spectator and ask "since there are more than 25 cards in a deck, can you pick a another number between 1 and 20?" Add the two numbers together. Let's say they pick 16. You tell them, "What I...

For those wondering what a table faro disguised as a perfect riffle shuffle looks:

You're right -- it was early in the morning for me and my brain wasn't working. Most are. The only sources I'm aware of are Steve Forte, Volume 1 GPS (Apparently a Demonstration... I do not have the video to confirm) and Karl Fulves' - Setting Up Exercises (which, as an aside, you need to...
