Robert Olson was well-known to the magic fraternity as the writer of The New Tops magic magazine’s columns...“Gimmicks-Gadgets & Optical Illusions” and “Men of Magic”. The Abbott Magic Company is proud to publish “Extra-Extra-Extra”. This book is a complication of two of Bob’s previous books...“The Added Touch” (the first ‘Extra’ and “Two hands--Three Pockets--Four Magic” (the second ‘Extra’). As an added bonus (the third ‘Extra’) they collected from the pages of The New Tops all the articles that Bob had gathered on magic and manipulation with giant (three-inch diameter) coins. All of the material in this big, big book is aimed at the sleight-of-hand performer ... yet each item is easily learned from the explicit text and the tremendous number of crystal-clear illustrations. The material on the giant coins appears nowhere else and could form the basis for a complete act in itself! A super collection!
