book

Does anyone happen to know any good source (preferably books) for how to catch specific playing cards during a waterfall (basically what Jason ladanye does every video). I know that most of this is estimation but I would like to read more about it. Thanks in advance!

Hello guys, yesterday I bought a new magic product called Alejandria. I'm a big fan of mentalism (although I specialize in Close-Up), then when i saw an ad on a facebook page, I gave it a try because of its low cost and what it promises to do. What I found left me more than surprised, so here...

Hello everyone! I´m fairly new at this whole world (around two months, I think), but I absolutely love it. I´ve just finished the Royal Road to Card Magic (still practicing every single trick though) and right now I´m just learning some tricks from YouTube. I´d like to read more books on card...

So I have been looking into Tarbell's books and I found two (sort of) books. The first is 'The original Tarbell lessons in magic' and the other one is 'The Tarbell course in magic' which actually consists of eight books. Is there anyone who can tell me what the difference is? 'The original...

TL;DR I want to get the most from magic books as I think I'm going about using them wrong and I'm not finding them very helpful. So I've been doing magic for a few years now and I like to think myself as reasonably experienced. When I work I do close up, mainly with cards. And I've dabbled...

I came across an old magic book in my basement the other day while sorting through supplies. Anyone have an idea on what this is? Any info is appreciated! I am familiar with some Tarbell but this looks different.

When I was a kid I once missed an episode of "Trick and Treat with the Magic Hands" show, where a pair of hands in darkness does a trick and then reveals how it's done. I only got to see the ending. There were a few cups/glasses placed upside down on a book/tray. Then he lifts and turns the...

Hi Guys, a german youtuber has Uplouded a video about his favorite acaan's and the best one, which he says, he learned it from a book, but i want to know which book it is? here is the video: at 16:00 Thank you for helping!

I think my presentation is the weakest part of my magic but I know its the most important part. So I was just wondering if you had any tips on how to make people more invested and have better reactions through a better presentation. Any book / video suggestions dealing with the subject would...

Hey! Been getting a lot of questions about my new book - [Link removed by Mod for advertising] Thought I'd set this is so if you have any Q's I'm here to answer them, no matter how silly or unrelated they are! Thanks, Rory

I have gotten a few books, Mark wilsons complete course, now you see it, now you don't, royal road of card magic and modern coin magic. But i was after one that focuses on the ins and outs of cups and balls, as well as some routines. I know there are lots of DVD's and such but would prefer a...

Could anyone suggest some good magic book sellers ? I know about Andy Greget, John Cannon, Byron Walker, Dan Bradbury, and Mike Henkel. Are there anymore that anybody would recommend ?

Just was looking for more books to read. I'm looking for either books about magic history or old magic books that are more interesting because of the time they were written rather than the methods described inside. Books I already have: -Magic 1400s-1950s -Magic Stage Illusions, Special...

As a neophyte amateur magician, I was delighted at the anecdotes and insights Alex Stone provides in his autobiographical account of magic culture. As someone who takes magic very seriously and takes secrecy as a real responsibility, I was horrified at just how much exposure there is in this...

Hi guys, in this last 2/3 months, I've started looking for tricks that fool magicians(I'm enlarging my repertory of this kind). I know, someone will tell me that most of the tricks, if well presented and executed, can fool a magician, and I know that's true. But what I'm talking about is that...

https://www.fourmilab.ch/etexts/www/herrmann/book_of_magic/bom.html just read the highlighted parts - thank me later :p For some reason, I just find the absurdity of some of these methods frankly entertaining. The tricks work, but they do so though such strange methods that it's simply funny...

I'm desperately searching for Reflections by Helder Guimaraes. I've searched everywhere. Dan&Dave, Penguin, ArtofMagic, Vanishing Inc, eBay, Amazon, you name it. I've posted on forums like reddit, themagiccafe, genii, trying to find this book. I've read from posts years ago that people have...

Hey! Can you please tell me a really amazing, advanced Card-Magic book? I want to learn tricks that David Blaine does for example. Mentalism, sleight-of-hands and prediction tricks. For example, such tricks David Blaine did in his Facebook livestream or at the Jimmy Fallon Show. Just...
