MAGIC TRICKS IN VOLUME ONE
| Signed
card in wallet A freely selected, signed card appears inside your wallet! The card really is a free selection and it is the same card that is found in your wallet at the end of the trick. The wallet is ordinary and is not gimmicked in any way. The deck can be borrowed. You do not need to know how to palm a card to perform this trick. All you need to know are the simple techniques you'll learn in this volume. This is a blockbuster of a trick. You won't believe how easy it is to perform! |
| The
Magic Breath A card is selected and lost in the deck. You tell your spectator that magicians blow on the cards sometimes because they respond to magical breath. You have someone select a number and then blow on the deck to cause their card to travel to the selected number from the top. It doesn't seem to be working until you offer a breath mint to the spectator. That seems to do the trick. Now when you ask them to count through the cards to any number of their choice, their selected card is found at the exact position they stop! |
| The
Card Shark A card is named and.. BAM! You cut right to it! This is as direct as it gets. As a magician, this is exactly the type of thing people expect you to be able to do. And now you can. This is a quickie that commands respect, and gets their attention. |
