Ring and Rope Routine
by Gary Bryson
Exclusive
This
Walk Around Parlour effect is the strongest piece of magic I perform. It
has it all when a solid ring magically penetrates on and off a solid
piece of Rope, right in front of your spectator’s eyes. After witnessing
several Magical elements of the effect and when the audience thinks the
trick is over, you knock them for six with a killer ending.
Please remember that your audience can examine everything you use in
this effect, it resets in a matter of seconds and it is very easy to
learn and perform from the enclosed DVD. This has been a sell out at
many of my lectures and conventions I have attended.
You Receive a Beautiful Chrome Metal Ring, Quality Rope and Full In
Depth Instructional DVD.

Melt Through Coins
EFFECT:
The audience can't believe it as they watch a coin visibly melt into the
back of your hand and then melt all the way through and drop into the
spectator's hand.
You will get screams from the audience. Carry it with you everywhere for
an instant miracle.

The 4th Key Booktest
Have
you ever dreamed of any of the following?
1. A book test that can fit in your pocket.
2. A book test which is fun to perform.
3. A book test that will allow you to describe so much more than a
single word.
4. A book test that will enable you to describe an image in your
spectators mind.
Well dream no more! - The Fourth Key is the answer!
Based around a new age book of love spells the Fourth Key allows your
spectator to open the book at any page and memorise a very simple spell.
With no fishing whatsoever you will be able to describe the spell in
full glorious detail!!
You can use the Fourth Key as a stand alone book test, as part of a one
ahead routine or even to help you reveal the name of your spectator’s
first love.
The Fourth Key is the ideal way to inject a solid piece of mind reading
into your close up or stage act and by its very nature takes a
light-hearted approach to the sometimes boring revelations of the
standard think-of-a-word Book test.

Sinful (Book and
DVD) by Wayne Houchin - Book (£19.99)
Effect:
A signed coin magically penetrates through a sealed can of soda or beer.
The can is opened, the contents poured out and trapped inside is the
initialled coin. The effect can be performed anywhere, at anytime with
no special props, no switches, no gimmicks, and no setup. Both the coin
and the can may be borrowed. In fact, the spectator can keep the can
with their signed coin trapped inside.
From magician Wayne Houchin (Thread, Stigmata and Control) and
graphic artist Josh Funk comes Sinful: A Graphic Novel. A
striking new vision of the celebrated Quarter Through Soda Can routine
that became one of the most talked about effects from the first season
of Criss Angel: Mindfreak.
Not just an instruction manual, Sinful offers the reader the rare
opportunity to peer into the creative process behind this routine.
Set in a fictional nightclub called Hendricks, the novel opens with a
stylized re-imagining of a live performance and then allows the reader
the opportunity to learn the full routine from Houchin's personal
notebook. This one of a kind learning experience offers a look at the
evolutionary process of creating - exploring other moves, concepts and
ideas that didn't make it into the final handling.
New ideas and alternative moves are discussed and taught in detail. Also
included is a performance DVD that features live performances and an
interview with Wayne Houchin conducted by Paul Harris.
Sinful: A Graphic Novel is for the magician interested in
learning a truly powerful piece of organic magic and for the artist
interested in the process of creating, not just copying.
A unique look at Sinful (The Quarter Through Soda Can)
Featuring artwork by Josh Funk

Graphic Novel + performance DVD
"One of the greatest no-preparation miracles EVER. You do it anytime,
anywhere, with any can and any coin and it's guaranteed to kill."
- Richard Kaufman, Editor of Genii, The Conjurors' Magazine
"This is a great trick. You are crazy for releasing it!"
- Lance Burton
"The impromptu nature and startling power of this effect is a rarity in
the magic world. Buy the DVD - you will not be disappointed!"
- Banachek
"In all my years I wish magic would be more like this - practical and
incredibly effective. This is a gem and worth 10 times the price."

David Copperfield A Magic Life
David
Copperfield A Magic Life
Written by Benoit Grenier
Translated by Rosalind Leveridge
Edited by Mark Leveridge
A Magicseen Publication
David Copperfield is arguably the most famous magician in the world as
for decades he has dominated the world magic stage through his many
widely seen TV specials, featuring some of the most staggering and
memorable illusions of all time, and through his constant touring with
his live stage show.
In this book, author Benoit Grenier takes a close look at Copperfield,
both the man and master magician, and gives a candid view of what it is
that makes David Copperfield such a long standing success.
Although none of David's illusion secrets are revealed, the reader is
nevertheless taken behind the scenes and is afforded a unique
perspective and insight into the life of this magic superstar. Benoit
traces the path Copperfield has taken from his childhood right through
to his modern day iconic standing in the world of entertainment, and it
makes for a fascinating and enlightening read.
If you have ever wondered what it must be like to be the most recognised
magician on the planet, this book will tell you and it goes a long way
to explaining the Magic Life that David Copperfield enjoys.

Ring and String Deluxe
Ring
and String Deluxe is the ultimate instruction package for learning
SIX Mark Leveridge ring and string moves
Mark Leveridge’s original Ring And String Routine comprised of four
moves - 1 ring on and 3 ring off handlings - and as No.6 in the Master
Routine Series, it has proved hugely successful and popular for many
years.
Now Mark has put together the best package yet to enable anyone
interested in doing strong magic with a borrowed finger ring and a
length of unprepared cord to add the moves to their magical armoury. As
well as including the original four Ring And String moves, this new set
also has an extra two handlings, one for ring on and one for ring off.
Ring And String Deluxe consists of the following components:
• A 35 minute instructional DVD. In this freshly shot footage
Mark takes you carefully and thoroughly through all six handlings, with
excellent close up performer’s view shots to make learning the moves as
easy as possible.
• A 14 page colour photo illustrated reference booklet. This
provides an excellent reminder of the six handlings shown on the DVD, so
that when practising you have memory joggers to keep you on track.
• A 3 metre length of thin rope. This is the exact cord used by
Mark and is enough to make 5 pieces of the correct length for using with
this routine.
Ring And String Deluxe is a wonderful resource for anyone who
truly wants to learn Mark’s ring and string moves. The moves do take
some practice to get them smooth and convincing, but the DVD and written
instructions supplied here give you every chance to get it right the
first time.

The Tenyo Elite
MOONSPINNER
The
Tenyo Elite MOONSPINNER "The hypnotic illusion of reality"
EFFECT: A metal paddle is shown which has a hypnotic pattern on it. The
performer moves the paddle slowly in a circular motion, and that
movement combined with the pattern causes an eerie illusion of a coin to
appear on the disc. The performer stops the movement, which makes the
coin instantly vanish, and again causes the coin to appear by moving the
paddle once more. But illusion turns into reality as this imaginary coin
instantaneously changes into a real coin! At the end, everything can be
examined.
Constructed out of anodized aluminum.
Hypnotic pattern is laser-etched and not a decal.
Made for performers and collectors alike.
Each Moonspinner is handsomely boxed and comes with a hand-crafted
carrying case, and includes photo illustrated instructions in both
English and Japanese.

BigBlindMedia presents
LIAM MONTIER'S 'SUPERSTITION' (with gimmick)
A
great new effect from the creative and slightly strange mind of Liam
Montier! This is easier than a jigsaw with all the bits glued together!
Imagine offering your spectator the chance to select themselves a 'lucky
card', which they do - say it is the Five Of Diamonds. You comment that
while that is not a bad card, you have a REALLY good one that you keep
on you at all times, attached to your keyring. It is trapped between two
blank cards to ensure that nothing can happen to it. There are clearly
only three cards on the keyring.
You then cleanly display your lucky card - say the Jack Of Spades. In a
sudden display of goodwill, you offer to exchange lucky cards with the
spectator, as you know your one is so good. Suddenly the Jack on your
keyring CHANGES into the spectator's Five Of Diamonds. Again, there are
clearly ONLY THREE CARDS on the Keyring - the double blanks and the
spectator's selection. It looks cleaner than a soap-sudded gleaming
thing with no grubby bits!
Calling attention back to what the spectator believed to be their
selection, they now see a small hole has appeared through the corner.
That is because, when they turn it over, they find it is the JACK OF
SPADES, fresh off your keyring.
BONUS!
Superstition is SOOOO easy and visual that Liam just knew there was more
to be done with it - and he was RIGHT. Also included on the DVD are FOUR
sexy pieces of sexiness, all related to the hussy-like SUPERSTITION!
SANDWICH - A simplified version of the original Superstition, this
effect features a totally new presentation, an even easier handling and
a 'regular card' solution to the plot of a transposition between two
selections while one is attached to your keyring.
THE HOUDINI EFFECT - An exciting, visual vanish of a signed 'Houdini'
card, despite the fact it is clearly PADLOCKED between two security
cards. You will LOVE the combination of simple sleight of hand, clever
gaffs and sheer cheekiness!
TWILIGHT ZONE - Four red backed prediction cards reveal a selected card
from a blue backed deck, despite being locked together on a keyring. The
twilight zone part happens whenh the last prediction. no wait, that
would be telling.
THE HOF THING - The classic 'Hofzinser' ace problem is reworked when
four kings are clearly displayed face up and then PADLOCKED together.
Despite these test conditions, the King matching the suit of a selection
still turns face down - before changing into the actual selection!
Everything can be examined in this true worker.
SUPERSTITION - IT IS COOL. BUY IT. BE HAPPY!

Exorcism
What
a great prop, your very own witch’s cauldron and a spooky effect to go
with it too.
You perform a ‘remote’ exorcism on the owner of the cauldron and manage
to cast out The Devil card from a deck of major arcana tarot cards.
Coupled with the visual effect of a surprising flash from the cauldron
as you dispose of the flaming embers of the scroll, this adds up to a
very nice set piece indeed.
Your spectator examines the deck of tarot cards and then mixes them up.
They place them face down on the table and after the exorcism ritual is
read aloud they remove the top card of the tarot deck, only to find that
it is The Devil card that they have ‘cast out’.
Exorcism comes with a genuine heavyweight 11 cm high cast iron cauldron
with its own lid and handle. This is a great prop to own and can be used
for many other uses, such as burning incense or holding a candle. You
also get a set of major arcana tarot cards and a set of scrolls and of
course full instructions and script from The Black Hart.

Al Mann Lecture DVD
This
DVD is a live recorded lecture Al Mann gave in Vienna, Austria, at the 1.
Wiener Zaubertheater, on November 25th 1984. To my knowledge this is the
only DVD available today showing Al Mann in action. The quality is
remarkably good for a live unscripted recording from a single camera from
the 80s. It runs for a bit over 1 hour and 40 minutes.
It is a wonderful video to watch and see Al in action, as well as pick up
a number of tips and several excellent routines. He also explains a
fantastic card force developed by Robert Parrish. This force is so fair
and completely absent of any sleight-of-hand, that the knowledge of this
alone is worth the entire DVD. Of course, this is just one little bit you
are getting. Al shows two effects with his DiploMental pouch, several
billet tests and two card tricks.
The second half of the lecture is performance only, where Al demonstrates
the Lexicon Phenomenon, Master Slate Deluxe, and a symbol prediction. This
is followed by a longer Q&A section which reveals quite a bit more in
terms of inside mentalism knowledge.
Al Mann gives the lecture in English and a translator translates
everything into German. Al says a few sentences, then the translator
translates them, then Al says more etc. I spotted a few minor errors in
the translation, but they should not prevent any German speaker to not
understand the instructions and explanations. The DVD menu is bilingual.
The only piece only in German is the introduction by Kaldy-Karo and the
final thanks again by Karo. This means this DVD is usable for both English
and German speakers.
My sincere thanks to the 1. Wiener Zaubertheater, of which I am a proud
member, for making this recording available and allowing me to offer it
for sale.

Clone Coin by Mark Lee
This
is a super clean 'Special' coin that can be shown clearly as a regular
coin. There are two effects included, but once you see the ingenuity of
the coin, there are many more possibilities. Effect one, is a simple
coins across in your hands effect. You start off by displaying two coins
openly, there is obviously nothing else in your hands. You place the two
coins, one at a time, and very cleanly, from your right hand to the
left. You now pick the two coins up with your right hand, and display
them. They are then thrown one at a time into your left hand (you can
even hear them clinking), and you grip them, making a fist with both
hands. You make a magical gesture, and although your hands never come
anywhere near each other, you can now show that you have one coin in
each hand! Effect two, is a coin matrix effect. Using four coins, which
are shown and counted, and two regular playing cards, borrowed if you
wish. The coins are spread out in to a square formation. Two of the
coins are now covered by the playing cards. When one is lifted, a coin
has gone, and when the other card is lifted there are now two coins
under it. This is repeated, until all the coins are now under one card!
You can now show you have only two cards and four coins! These are
available in the 10p coin version as standard, but you can order any
coin you require. - Standard 10p coin plus instructions - £25.00 + £2.95
UK postage or £4.95 overseas.

Astor Mental by
Astor Magic
This
high quality Mentalism effect from Astor Magic is virtually self-working
and very user friendly. It is a superb example of Astor's craftsmanship
and will have audiences who see you perform this miracle talking about you
for months to come!
For this trick the magician uses a transparent perspex board, five E. S.
P. cards with blue back and five E. S. P. cards with red back.
Every blue backed card has its matching red backed card.
You will have the same E. S. P. symbols on the faces of these cards.
The magician slips the blue cards into their slots on the board in an
order only he knows. The spectator then has a free choice of which slots
the red cards go in. When the magician turns the board around, the blue
back and red back cards are in the same order (top to bottom). You can
show the trick twice and the order of the cards won't be the same.
The cards are not specially prepared.

O.D. (Optical Delusion) by Aaron Paterson
From
the creator of Icarus Effect comes this thought provoking, imagination
capturing endeavour that will change the way your audience perceives you.
Aaron Paterson has once again released one of his most closely guarded
secrets to the magic world.
Imagine this...
A spectator’s business card is obtained...
That same spectator is asked to think of a playing card out of 52
possibilities...
The performer presents his cell phone camera and takes a picture of his
own eye...
The spectator is asked to gaze into the photo eye...
And then...
Something inconceivable happens...
As the spectator gazes into the pupil of the photo eye, a card
enigmatically begins to materialize and subsequently dematerialize only to
materialize once again a moment later, permanently altering the photo. The
spectator is stunned to find that the card in the photo is actually the
card they merely thought of a moment ago. The performer is able to
seemingly extract the thought of card from the spectators mind and cause
it to appear in the photo.
The spectator abruptly departs uttering profanities...
Using the info from the previously obtained business card, the performer
actually emails the transformed photo along with his contact info to the
spectator from his cell phone (provided his cell phone has that
capability). Leaving them his electronic calling card and an unforgettable
memory.
Includes: Instructional DVD, complimentary access to the exclusive OD
forum and free downloads.
- Can be performed with almost any cell phone that has a camera
- Can be immediately repeated with a different outcome
- Extremely easy to perform once prepared
- Includes no force variation
- Includes bonus Ideas section that alone is worth the price of the
DVDThes.

The Dan and Dave System DVD
A
few years ago at the first MAGIC Live! convention, Dan and Dave Buck (AKA,
the Buck twins) were the only ones who received a standing ovation after
they performed their flourish act at the Close-Up show! Even David Blaine
was impressed! Now, you'll see why!
In February 2002 Dan and Dave set out to create a "magic DVD that would
rule them all." The catch was that this DVD would have no magic. Nearly
two years later The Dan and Dave System is finally released. Are you ready

Duality - Gary Jones
Once
in a while I have the privilege to be the exclusive distributor of a
great new effect! Wow! This is outstanding and has impressed many of the
best working professional magicians in the business today!
Gary is one the countries Top Professional WORKING Magicians. He eats,
breathes and lives magic 24 hours a day if he's not performing he is
coming up with a dozen different ways to produce the same effect until
he finds the very best and most effective way. Finally Gary has been
persuaded to part with some of his best effects... I am proud to say
Gary has been a close friend of mine for many years and has asked me to
make and distribute them for him... The first of these is here...
After placing a deck of cards on the table the Magician asks a spectator
to THINK of both a number between 1-52 and any one of the 52 playing
cards in a deck but not say anything yet! Then in full view writes two
predictions on the reverse of his business card, a number and a playing
card… Only now does the spectator tell him what number and card they
were thinking of and these are then written under the magicians
predictions. Taking the deck of cards, the magician explains that on the
backs of the cards are written the numbers 1-52 in a random order. He
now searches through the faces of the cards and removes the spectator's
thought of card, turning the deck over and searching through the backs,
he then finds the card with the spectator's thought of number on it. On
the reverse of the spectators thought of card is the number the magician
predicted. And on the face of the card with the thought of number is the
very playing card he predicted.
Remember…
Only one deck is used - which is on view BEFORE the trick commences.
The Predictions are made BEFORE the spectator says anything!
No Sleights, no Forcing, no Rough & Smooth
And it instantly resets

Tri-Color Nightmare
Plus
From
Gay Ljungberg: This is my best trick! I invented it in 1984 and has sold
many, many hundreds over the years, it is always a hit at magic
conventions. I have liking for doing "ungimmicked versions" of tricks,
that are normally performed using gimmicks. This one of those.
Two effects:
PROFESSORS NIGHTMARE IN COLOR
You show thre unequal ropes, one is red, one is blue and one is yellow,
counting them from hand to hand. With one simple tug, you make the ropes
equal!
LINKING ROPES
Two spectators each choose a rope and you take the remaining one and you
all tie a knot in the rope making a circle, a ring of rope. You gather
the three rope rings in your and try to pull them a part, but they are
linked to each other! The ropes are real, the knots are real and
everything can be examined.
No magnets, no extra pieces of rope, NO GIMMICKS! Only knowledge is
used. You receive three ropes in different colours, an illustrated
instruction PLUS a dvd showing the effect and in detail, step by step,
teaching you how to setup and perform the effect.
Bonus effect: ORDER OF YOUR THOUGHT
The spectator may tie the ropes in any order he likes, formig a long
rope. You have a red handkerchief visible in your breast pocket. You
pull out the handkerchief and there are two more handkerchiefs, all
three in the same colours as the ropes, and tied to each other in the
same order as the ropes. For this bonus effect you can use your own
silks (not included).
You can perform one, two or all three effects in a sequence. Easy to
learn! (Gay Ljungberg)

Strong Magic by Darwin Ortiz
Why
is it that some magicians get great audience reaction while others who are
just as skillful leave audiences so cold? The answers are in Strong Magic,
the first-ever book on showmanship specifically for the close-up magician.
As a successful professional magician for almost twenty rears, Darwin
Ortiz has appeared before thousands of audiences of all kinds. During that
time he has studied what it takes to really move an audience. In Strong
Magic, he presents the results of those years of study and experience in a
way that every magician can benefit from.
Do you want applause, gasps, and praise? Do you want your performances to
be talked about and remembered? Strong Magic tells you how. You already
own countless books on card and coin manipulation. Here is a book on
something far more important: audience manipulation. Not a dry, boring
treatise, it's funny, fascination, exciting reading. Not a book of vague
theory, it's loaded with countless examples and concrete techniques that
you can put to use right away to give your magic more impact. These are
the real secrets of close-up magic--and they are all in Strong Magic.

HI HO HATS – Uncle Wiggy (EXCLUSIVE)
What
a pickle! Here’s a young man, eager to set off to wizard school, but
he’s missing something. Can you guess what it is? That’s right! A hat.
His Mum offers to help him, as she’s got a trunk in the attic with all
sorts of hats, but things go from bad to worse, as you can see!
In desperation, our young hero asks to go to the Hat Shop. You display a
folder, which represents the Hat Shop, and the children can see a
picture in the open window.
The shopkeeper tells the young wizard that he only has one hat left, but
he thinks it will be perfect. The young wizard is not so sure! There are
no other hats in the shop, as you prove by peering through the window,
but the children help with a magic spell, and another hat appears in the
window. Better still, it’s a wizard’s hat! - but it’s far too big! More
magic happens and as you can see from the happy boy wizard, everything
comes out right!
Stunning artwork, dazzling colours and a brilliant, highly topical plot
all add up to make this one of the best new children’s tricks for a long
time. Highly visible (the cards are approx. 10” x 7”) yet the whole
things packs completely flat. One of the earliest copies of the trick
went to Ian Adair. Here’s what he said: “Thanks for sending me the
latest ‘Hi Ho Hats’ effect. It’s terrific!!! Great artwork,
beautifully constructed and a wonderful theme. I performed it today and
the kids loved it! It will be in the show forever!” And here’s
another letter from busy professional, David Tomkins (Cheeky Dog
Entertainments): “Many thanks for ‘Hi Ho Hats’. Was expecting
something excellent and got it. Very pleased and it’s straight in the
show.”

Impossible Card Magic
Impossible
Card Magic is a perfect title for this DVD. Every effect on this tape
is impossible to figure out when you first see it - you will be fooled!
The skill level ranges from intermediate to advanced but the effort
involved in learning these routines will surely put you ahead of the
crowd. All the routines are show-stoppers and all the methods are new
and original. This is card magic that will fool and entertain. Includes
Raise Rise - One of Ray's signature pieces, an ambitious card sequence
where a signed selection is placed near the bottom of the deck, sticking
out for half its length. Visually, the card jumps up to the middle of
the deck, then near the top, then becomes the top card! The card magic
contained on this DVD is not easy but each effect is well worth the
practice. Highly Recommended!
