Richard Busch - Mother's Home Companion

PDF

NOTE: this requires the "Mother of All Book Tests" or some other booktest using the same principle.

In the early 1990's, Ted Karmilovich began developing early versions of what many believed would become, along with Larry Becker's Flashback, one of the two greatest booktests of our generation. For a time, only members of The Legendary Thirteen had access to Ted's booktest. Then, in 1996, lightning struck the world of mentalism. The Mother Of All Book Tests was released. It retailed for $ 350 and was (and is) worth more than twice as much to any professional performer. I treasure my copy and use it all the time.

Later that year, I called Ted and performed what would become known as Mother's Home Companion, right on the phone. He was stunned. At the time, he called The Mommy Maneuver "a wonderful no-pump solution." With his blessing, I released MHC to a few colleagues and quietly let it remain moderately underground. It's been out of print and unavailable ever since.

In 2003, I produced a new, expanded version of MHC which enables the performer to perform MOAB as cleanly and comfortably as before, but for two people at once, effectively doubling the value of your investment. So if you're lucky enough to own Ted's sensational Mother Of All Book Tests, you can now perform the MOAB presentation that stunned its own creator ... for one or two people!

As a surprise bonus, read how I did the first long distance performance of MOAB by phone, from Pittsburgh, PA (USA) to Dublin, Ireland. Another testament to the value and flexibility of the amazing MOAB. After all these years, mentalists the world over still owe Ted Karmilovich an internationally collective THANK YOU!

If you perform The Mother, you want her Companion!
