Old Tricks

I think he is saying that people don't perform older effects anymore. I still perform old effects, as do several others.
I believe he's saying that old tricks are the best, however, nobody performs old tricks anymore. If you do perform an old trick, what is it? And what makes it good to you?
Well I've always had a fondness for Dr Doc Daley's last trick I feel that is a definate classic of magic If you can do it well. One trick that is old and is overlooked is slight of foot in the encyclopedia of card tricks the concept it uses isn't seen anywhere, a single gem.

Many of the the effects used today are variations of old effects in one way or another, Paul Harris Strange Travelers is a very good example. Strange Travelers is based on a 75-year-old cards-across effect by Henry Hardin called "King's Kards." The legendary Nate Leipzig used to performed a version of the very same effect, as Strange Travelers. Paul Currys "Out Of This World" has also stood the test of time as have many others, you'll find some of the best effects are old effects.
I still perform the one coin routine (my version, but still a classic plot in magic). Also the cylinder and coins I perform and people love it
