Advanced Card Magic - by Howard Albright [52 Weeks Project - #14]

SUPER COMMERCIAL IMPROMPTU FASDIU EFFECTS!

Book #14 in the 52 Weeks Project

This book should be renamed "FASDIU Bar Magic" because that's exactly what it is: super commercial, impromptu card effects. 

None other than DARWIN ORTIZ recommended this book. And not in vain: the effects are fun and powerful, the presentation premises are commercial, the construction is intelligent and the handlings direct.

Although the title is "advanced" card magic, almost everything is within the grasp of the average magician (force, double lift, etc).

CONTENTS:

The Goofy Card - A "comedy" version of the Ambitious Card. Does NOT involve a selected card. This is the perfect opener for strolling magic.

The Persistent Card - Another highly commercial, comedy effect

Includes:

- The Slip Force
- The "Slip Back" 

The Mind of Mephistopheles - The magician announces the position of 3 selected cards shuffled into the deck, one by one. The spectator does all the dealing.
