    Books and Dvds

    For someone who is 9 months into card magic, I would recommend the following: Royal Road to Card Magic - Jean Hugard and Fred Braue Self-Working Card Tricks - Karl Fulves Scarne on Card Tricks - John Scarne 101 Amazing Card Tricks - Bob Longe A read through these will give you a good grounding...

    Where I can found tutorials on these tricks?

    Re Jen's trick: Did you look at the link I gave? If you read that and think about what Penn says to Jen then it should be pretty obvious what is going on. No one is going to hand this to you on a plate. Re delivery times: I think you're going to be pretty stuck then. Mr Aronson is pretty old...

    Where I can found tutorials on these tricks?

    The two names mentioned are Simon Aronson and Juan Tamariz. I'm going to assume your relatively new to magic given the fact you don't recognise these names as they are two very well known magicians. If so, prepare to be disappointed. These are not the kind of tricks you can learn in a day. It's...

    Where to get this trick?

    I believe there is a sleight of hand version on the first disc of the 'True Astonishments' box set. Think it's called 'Chang's Change' or something similar (but don't quote me on that). Rev

    What is the move in this video call?

    It's called Flippant, and the move is by Looy Simonoff. First appeared in print in the September 1978 issue of Apocalypse .

    Looking for a effect/trick

    Those are two very different scenarios though. The method you use would differ depending on where you were. For example, Bill Abbots 'Smart Ass' would be great for stage, but you don't really want to be throwing cards around like that close up. But by the same token, Guy Hollingworth's...

    Is this a good set for walk around magic?

    Personal experience means I really don't agree with this. People LOVE Crazyman's Handcuffs. It's incredibly strong. I always start with it. Very often, in casual situations, it's the only trick I do. I have shown work colleagues/friends etc many tricks over the years, and the only one I ever get...

    Is This Possible?

    Assuming I get what you're saying, and I think I do, this is the kind of thing I meant in my first post above. The key is the distance between the two spectators and their respective magicians. Rev

    Is This Possible?

    Funnily enough, this is also the first thing I thought of. Don't think the cards are signed in David's effect though. Rev

    Is This Possible?

    This got my mind cogs whirring this morning. I came up with a very rough method that would be great for stage. The two magicians would be at opposite ends of the theatre. The signed cards would be shown to have transported from one side of the room to the other without the magicians ever coming...

    Tonight's Episode of Fool Us

    I've been hearing a few things about Joshua's performance, so I looked it up on Youtube (as I don't live in the US). I thought I knew where Josh's trick was going (having seen a similar trick by John Lovick), then he turned over the actual 4 of diamonds and I was stumped. Fantastic bit of magic.

    Best TNR?

    It's in the Definitive Sankey books. Though I'm guessing if you had those you would have checked there already... He sells it as an individual download on his website for less $5, which is a steal. I don't see any reason why it couldn't be signed, though I don't know why you would bother...

    Best TNR?

    I don't do a TNR, but if i did I would go with Sankey's 'Cardboard Contortionists', the effect is great, but I also love the out of the box thinking with regards to the method. Rev

    B'Word - a free packet trick for my T11 buddies!

    Hi All Just a little something to say 'thanks' to all my friends on here. I've had some great discussions over the last few months and have received some great and very helpful feedback on my routines I have posted. Below is a PDF describing a variation on Max Maven's 'B'wave' packet brainwave...

    Best Object Through Hand?

    I appreciate you're mature response. However, all your posts read like advertising spiel. You clearly want to market this and I honestly don't think it would be worth yours or anybody else's time. You may disagree, that's your prerogative. To be blunt, no. You're only a year into magic, what...

    Who's up for a freebie...

    Thought this is something that might interest all of you who like a freebie. It's an online magazine called Top Hat that is 100% free and has no advertising or any commercial connections whatsoever. Everyone who contributes to it does so on a voluntary basis and Michael Jay, the editor...

    Best Object Through Hand?

    So are you saying you came up with this pretty much as soon as you started doing magic? That in itself set off alarm bells... ...however, I'm not one for jumping to conclusions, so I watched the videos anyway, and here's what I thought: I admire you spirit, but I really don't see what this...

    Any recommended Montes?

    I always loved the presentation of Colour Monte but never really got on with the handling. Always found the alignment move a bit of a weird thing. Still, it seems to work so I guess that's more my problem than a problem with the trick... I personally love Michael Skinner's Ultimate 3 Card...

    Engagment and Misdirection.

    This is one of the best pieces of advice you will receive. You have to give them a reason to look elsewhere, and this comes down to trick and performance construction more than anything. A lot of newbies struggle with knowing what to say when performing (that's fine, we've all been there). As...
