It's all here: Card Magic, Coin Magic, Rope Magic, Mental Magic, Make-at-Home Magic, Sponge Ball Magic, Billiard Ball Magic, Cups and Balls Magic, and Magical Illusions. Mark Wilson devoted more than two years of research, writing, and technical preparation to this book. More than 50,000 still photographs were taken of the detailed execution of the tricks considered worthy to include in this course, and these photographs were edited and converted into hundreds of simplified line drawings. The straightforward text follows Mark Wilson's "step method" of magic instruction, the same method he has used to teach magic to Tony Curtis, Telly Savalas, Bill Bixby, Dick Van Dyke, Peter Faulk, Bernadette Peters, John Denver, and other professional entertainers. It's thoroughness makes Mark Wilson's Complete Course In Magic especially recommended for the beginner with absolutely no experience in magic. At the same time, its scope and depth has earned this book a place in the libraries of many of today's most accomplished magicians, professional and amature alike! Softbound, 503 8.5" by 11" pages

I am proud to reintroduce after an long absence...A priceless collectors item, to see this is to want it! A slender brass tube with threaded lid and five ornate brass rods, each one has a different colored gem set into one the end and numbered from one through five at the other are shown. A spectator is invited to join in an experiment of thought transference using these simple props. The objective is for the spectator to hide one of the numbered rods within the brass case, sealing them and concealing the remainder of the rods from the Magician's view. All this is done while the magician's back is turned or he is out of the room. Upon his return, the magician immediately names the hidden rod within the sealed case. This may be repeated with equal success. Remember, nothing is added or taken away! Self contained! · Precision craftsmanship! · No weights, Magnets, or Secret Slides! Comes in a gorgeous carrying case. This is a prop you'll drool over, the guys at the club will drool over. Then you'll blow their minds. So, so easy, and it stuns them every time.

Linking Rings with DVD

The Linking Rings are one of the best-known and most popular magic tricks of all time. On this DVD, expert sleight of hand artist Troy Hooser will teach you how to perform this classic trick, and many of its startling variations.

Several deceptive methods used to link solid rings - How to create designs and shapes with linked rings - methods to visibly unlink rings - Complete Linking Ring routines

Includes a set of eight close-up linking rings and DVD

Floating Match

Floating match

A match is placed across a playing card. At the magicians command the match rises and floats above the card. Another card is passed under the match to prove it is floating. The match then floats down and rests on the card. Very simple and very deceptive.

A brass bolt is secured into an hexagonal block which has a hole running through it just large enough for the steel ball to pass through. Obviously the bolt is in the way and the ball just rests upon the bolt. As the spectator watches the ball SLOWLY starts to malt through the bolt and fall into his waiting hand. Everything can be Immediately Examined. Only one ball is used!! Beautifully machined. Completely mechanical! Repeat Immediately! Now beautifully Chrome plated! Easy to do and now at a great lower price.

When party guests request a few tricks, be prepared. Ask for a coin, and perform some of the tricks in this book. Because you will not have been aided by special stage apparatus, the results will be all the more astonishing.

This book is the most complete treatise ever written on sleight-of-hand coin conjuring. Celebrated magician J.B. Bobo has gathered here the best and most useful of all coin tricks.

All the tested, traditional methods of coin magic are here.You will learn all about palms, holds, flips, switches, change-overs, steals, cuffing, sleeving and other sleight-of-hand techniques; coin tricks requiring special devices are also included. The author guides you systematically from basic techniques, concealments and vanishes, through integrated tricks, to complete routined acts.

The variations of effects possible with this coin are limited only by your imagination. Imagine placing a 1p coin and a £1 coin on the table placing a glass over them and twirling the glass around the coins when you stop only the £1 is left the 1p has completely disappeared. Placing the coins in the hand of a spectator and making the 1p penetrate thru their hand or vanish and reappear in yours hand leaving them with only the £1…All this and more. Made by master crafstman "Eddie Gibson" who is famed the world over for his gimmicked coins, in his usual high standard. So good they are easily spendable…And examinable too.

A glass is shown over which a sheet of rubber is stretched and held in place with an elastic band. On top rests two coins the spectator chooses one, one is removed and the performer places his finger on top of the remaining coin and pushes… The coin visibly penetrates through the sheet of rubber. Everything can be immediately examined. There's absolutely nothing to find. Unbelievable yes but TRUE.

The all time classic coin trick. Two brass caps a ring and a pile of 10p's produce a variety of miracles. The 10p's vanish from under one cap and appear under the other, penetrate thru the back of the solid metal cap and finally they vanish all together leaving no trace of the coins. Everything can be examined. Self working. Will also take 25c pieces (USA Quarters).
