Close Cover Before Striking

Close Cover Before Striking - Lecture Notes - Lee Asher
Lee's latest lecture notes contain six wonderful effects and utility sleights for the close-up card worker.
  • Wipe Your Ace - The magician shuffles the deck and tries to find all four of the aces. He succeeds in finding three of them but misses the fourth. He corrects the mistake by rubbing the deck against the wrong card and it visibly changes into the final ace!
  • Face Down Silver Surfer - A card is shown, signed and turned face-down on top of the deck. The deck is spread and the selection slowly slides down the spread from the top of the deck into the middle. With a snap of the fingers, the signed card is shown to have magically jumped back to the top
  • Put Your Treys In The Upright Position - The four Threes are rotated out of the deck and remain standing on the table without any visible means of support!
  • Rosie Palm - An amazing way to palm a card from the center of the deck.

Close-Up and Personal

Qty: 
Close-Up and Personal - David Regal
"This stuff's so clever it's criminal"
These words were uttered by Max Maven shortly after reading David Regal's Close-Up & Personal. Fortunately, Regal has managed to escape prosecution, due not only to his inventiveness, wit and originality in magic, but also to his success as a comedy performer and television writer. David's magic twelve years ago so impressed Harry Lorayne, he wrote and published David's first book-Star Quality: The Magic of David Regal. Lorayne's title proved prophetic, and after seeing the contents of Close-Up & Personal, his comment was, "He'll fool the hell out of you."

David Regal is a popular performer at The Magic Castle, just one of the locations where he audience-honed the material presented in this volume. Close-Up & Personal contains, in the words of Ken Krenzel, "An abundance of novel, offbeat gems."

What People Are Saying:
"I have discovered that you are my twin soul." -- Arturo de Ascanio

"Most men have two dimensions, they are tall and wide, Davide has the third dimension, he is deep!" -- Rene Lavand

"Davide Costi is a refined gentle performer. He prefers his puzzlements to be blown kisses rather than buffeting blows. There is something merciful in his manner and he truly wishes to share whatever mystery may occur, telling whichever stories ring most true. His climatic noble effect, where two cards matched, stunned even fastest company!" -- Jon Racherbaumer

After repeating this a couple of times you are surprised to find that the coin has changed into a button! Looking down, you discover that the coin is attached to your jacket where the button should be.

To paraphrase Gordon Bruce's introduction, these aren't just tricks but lessons in presentation 27 pages, with illustrations by Roy Johnson.
