MYST Henri White

NOTE: Myst is for the serious performer and only for those 18 and older. This effect requires some set-up, and is routined to be performed once in a parlour or stage setting. Not suitable for close-up/table hopping…Unless it’s the very first effect you perform.

MYST is a piece of parlour show perfection, tailored specifically for the serious performer by Henri White.

Henri is one of London’s most popular magicians; by day he works in one of the world’s most famous department store located in upmarket London, by night he’s one of the most requested close-up performers across the city.

His professional appearances demand eery, visual, organic magic, and MYST is no exception.

Cause a drinkable bottle of Milk to immediately plume into a cloud of smoke, dissipating in front of your spectators eyes … Or use your unquestionable power to turn ice-cold water into a steaming-hot mug of h2o.

Triumph and Triumph Again

Asi Wind, one of the greatest modern conjurors, shares with us Triumph and Triumph Again, a brilliant addendum to John Bannon’s Play it Straight Triumph. Triumph and Triumph Again enters the magic community offering a fresh approach to the original effect, while also providing a baffling finale.

Two spectators are asked to make separate selections- one to be placed immediately face down, the other remembered. The pack is then shuffled face-up and face-down, only to be spread moments later to show the cards have returned to normal face-down position, except for twelve like-suited cards in order! It’s discovered that the card needed to complete the sequence is the one that’s been on the table since the start of the effect.

A spectator is then invited to shuffle the pack themselves, and the trick is repeated to reveal the second selection of an entirely different suit. Finally, the first selection transforms into the second for a startling conclusion.

Learn in intricate detail directly from the master himself. Also as an added bonus you’ll enjoy a second version (and our personal favorite), in which a failed performance turns in favor of the magician.

The Vault – The Mysterious Puzzle of the Missing Dollar Bill by Nicholas Einhorn

Three guys go out for lunch. They pay. Yet each time they count their change, there is a missing dollar bill. So, they try it again. Another dollar is found missing. Each time they count the total dollars, one always goes missing.

Nick Einhorn (winner of Penn & Teller: Fool Us) breathes life into a classic riddle that you have to see to believe. Count the dollars, one is missing. Count again, there goes another.

It’s a smashingly fun puzzle that you will show at dinner parties and gatherings, where they will scratch their heads in disbelief. Open and honest deception has never been so much fun.

  • Works in all currencies
  • Easy to learn and perform
  • Instantly repeatable
  • Carry it and perform it anywhere

Inspired by Daryl’s original routine ‘A Puzzling Bill Vanish’ and released with his blessing.

Download the video and have fun!

Quentin Reynolds’ 5 Minutes with a Pocket Handkerchief

Quentin Reynolds is a professional magician whose specialty is children’s shows. The routine taught on this DVD is the highlight of his show — a polished five minute act which is accomplished with nothing more than an ordinary pocket-handkerchief.

You are treated to a live performance in front of a classroom of children where Quentin brings the kids to a frenzy using this handkerchief routine and the many gags and touches which make it a masterpiece. Following the performance you are taught everything you need to know to perform the act.

The routine is a brisk and upbeat sequence of effects which begins with a stretching handkerchief, a series of knots and culimates with the animation of the Magic Mouse. It is adaptable for most performing situations such as stage, parlor, close-up, walk-around, kids, adults, yet it still fits in your pocket and is very easy to do.

Routines, sequences and gags explained:

  • The Magic Mouse
  • The Stretching Hank
  • The Jumping Hank
  • Karrell Fox’s Knifty-Knot
  • Karrell Fox’s No Not
  • Frank Garcia’s Iron Gag
  • Stewart Judah’s Watchwinder gag

Also includes tips from George Sands, Harry Blackstone, Sr., Dan Garrett, Martin Gardner, and tons of jokes, gags, tidbits, and advice which can only be learned from years of continuous performance. Includes a discussion on making the routine even stronger and much more.

Three Card Routines by Asi Wind

Triumph and Triumph Again
A double punch triumph effect.

One of the best plots in card magic with a surprising twist. Two handlings are explained, and only an ordinary deck of cards is necessary. Pefect for walk-around and a formal close-up performance.

“Stunning. Stunning.”
– Jason Alexander

Running time: 33min

A.A.C.A.A.N.
Asi’s any card at any number.

Constructed from years of trial and error, Asi’s Any Card at Any Number is a masterpiece of modern-day magic. The effect is suitable for both close-up and stage with a method that is nearly impossible to reconstruct. It can be performed surrounded and may be repeated with no additional setup required. Only an ordinary deck of cards is used. Nothing else.

“You fooled me badly. This is by far the best A.C.A.A.N I have seen.”
– Johnny Thompson

Running time: 41min

Double Exposure
Triumph captured in a photo.

A mind-blowing new take on a classic effect. Double Exposure by Asi Wind is a reality altering version of Triumph that happens within a borrowed camera. There are no gimmicks or special applications needed. 100% impromptu. Just you, a deck of cards, and a borrowed camera are all that’s necessary.

Performed by David Blaine on national television.

Running time: 23min
