Another outstanding manuscript from the William W. Larsen (Sr.) and T. Page Wright "Mysteries" series for the Thayer Magic Studio. You'll discover an array of brilliant, top tier card effects using both prepared and unprepared cards that will astound and entertain your audiences. In their introduction, after explaining the difficulty of claiming originality for any new feat in card magic, the authors go on to describe the card effects offered in their work as follows, "Most of them are admittedly adaptations of standard principles, but we have included only such items as seemed to us to possess sufficient originality, in effect or in handling, to make them of interest to even the well informed magician. Many of the feats contained herein will be found to require no manipulative ability whatever; all of them are within easy reach of the performer of ordinary dexterity. The wise expert, however, will not disdain them because they are subtle rather than difficult, for he will recognize that, in common with all magic, if they are to be effective they require the highest type of magical skill - skill in presentation. Whether each effect that follows will appear to a spectator as just another card trick or as an apparent miracle of magic will depend entirely upon the individual performer."
Here are just some of the powerful effects:
A Double Reverse
Two cards are chosen. Each are openly returned to the deck facing in the same direction as the rest of the cards. You now fan the cards and one of the selected cards is seen to have reversed itself. You right the card and close the fan. You now fan the cards again and the other chosen card is now reversed. Simple, brilliant, visual card magic and it's easy to do.
A Dark Test
After the lights are turned out, two spectators are given halves of a well-shuffled deck and each pocket a card. The cards are handed back to the performer and lights turned back on. Without looking at the deck, or fishing, etc., the performer is able to reveal the identity of both cards with uncanny accuracy. Both cards are returned to the deck. They are the only two cards missing from it!
A Face Down Detection
A card is selected in a fair manner while the performer is out of the room and in a way that would seemingly make it impossible for him to know the selected card's location. Even so, when he returns, he takes the deck and begins dealing cards face up - eventually throwing one card to the side face down - a card he never even looks at. The spectator names his card. It is the face down card the performer set to the side! You're going to love the little-known method.
A Card Turns Over!
A stunning visual effect in which a court card turns over as it is slid through the deck. The card can be pulled out and pushed back in to allow the effect to sink in and the deck even shown from both sides; before the card is withdrawn and handed out for examination! Inspired by a Charles T. Jordan effect, however it uses an original method.
Suitability
A seemingly impossible triple (or more) card revelation that utilizes an ingenious and little-known prearrangement that allows you to pinpoint a group of freely selected cards taken from anywhere in the pack with a minimum of handling.
The Prophecied Leaper
A card selected by a spectator from one packet of cards vanishes while the spectator is holding the packet and reappears in the other packet at a location predicted by the performer.
Other effects include: Sympathetic Location, A Rapid Fire Detection, A Prophecied Discovery, A Two Card Location, The Perfect Guesser, A Self-working Mystery, The Holy Deck, A Reverse Location, A Quick Change, Out of Sight, A New Mental Test, Written Revelation, and Piercing The Card. 28-page, high quality Trickshop.com edition, completely re-typeset.
