This handsome collection includes effects with cards, silks, coins, balls, etc. Every trick described has been a ‘pet’ of the author through the years. Abbott Magic prevailed upon him to release them to the magic fraternity. Many of the tricks are of an impromptu nature--others are just right for intimate or club performances. The contents include ”A New Click Pass (with coins); The Coin Up The Sleeve (using the click pass); Passing Four Coins To A Glass (with an additional variation both involving the click pass); An Effective Handkerchief Stretch; Untying a Knot in a Handkerchief While a Spectator Holds The Ends; The Percival Shoelace Trick; 20th Century Billiard Ball Effect; New Card to Pocket; A Modern Card Miracle (plus a different conclusion to this effect); Sympathetic Aces; Improvising an Easel; Matching the Aces; A Sucker Mental Effect; and The Magic Square.
