Nicholas Lawrence – The Rising

The Rising looks impossible. It looks like something that takes years to master, but thankfully it’s not. Just any ordinary deck of cards is all you need and you’ll have the most visual ending to an ambitious card routine period.

The Rising is also great as a stand alone piece of visual magic. A card is placed at the bottom of a deck and slowly melts through the deck without any funny moves. Like its taking an escalator ride to the top of the deck.

Looks impossible. Completely practical. The Rising will raise the bar on your card magic.

The Butterfly by Bruno Copin

As beautiful as a butterfly.

Bruno Copin’s “The Butterfly” is a thing of beauty.
A card is animated, turns over in the spectators hand and then spends 360 degrees. Finally after the effect is finished, you are left completely clean immediately. Bruno Copin is among the most ingenious creators in the world when to inventing visual animations with cards. Not only is The Butterfly an impossible visual card effect but it’s a worker too.

Bruno has worked for years to come up with the very best method for The Butterfly.The effect is streamlined, foolproof, practical, and reliable even right in front of their face and IN THEIR HANDS.

The Butterfly is absolutely essential for anyone who wants to perform memorable close up magic with a pack of cards.

Jeff Kaylor – Unbelievalope 2.0

Unbelievalope 2.0 | theory11

A prediction is clearly in view inside of an envelope window. It could be a note, a playing card, a bill, or billet. It can then be switched – undetected, seamlessly, and invisibly. The spectator can be burning your hands – and they still won’t see it happen.

Imagine this: Your audience sees a playing card inside of the envelope window, in full view the entire performance. A participant selects and signs ANY card, then it vanishes completely from the deck. The one card that has been in view since the very beginning is taken out of the envelope – in the fairest way possible – and it is THEIR signed card.

Drawing Room Deceptions by Guy Hollingworth

Drawing Room Deceptions - Guy Hollingworth - Vanishing Inc. Magic shop

Drawing Room Deceptions did not become the publisher’s fastest selling book ever just by chance. It was the direct result of a series of specific events. The first ingredient was a young English schoolboy willing to invest a full decade of his young life in the study and practice of close-up card magic. He was not satisfied to mimic the tricks of others so he created a repertoire that was totally original. Along the way, he developed a distinct performing style that was gentlemanly yet steeped in sophisticated humor. Following graduation from university, Guy spent a couple of years traveling around the world performing and lecturing for club meetings and convention audiences. Add to this, television appearances around the world such as The World’s Greatest Magic in America. This exposure to thousands of magicians established Guy’s reputation for possessing impeccable skill along with an arsenal of original material. And one miracle that stood out among all others was his not-to-be-believed, piece-by-piece card restoration, now known to the magic world at large as The Reformation. The final piece of the puzzle was putting all of this knowledge into a single book, Drawing Room Deceptions. The added fact that this entire book was written, illustrated and designed by young Mr. Hollingworth simply makes this story that much more amazing.
