Framework is a collection of 34 of Tom's best card effects, created from 1978 to 2011. Think of this an excellent 'best of' collection of Tom's work. If you have read Hold 'Em Magic, you will know that Tom Frame has some excellent material. His latest offering continues this trend. With a foreword by Jon Racherbaumer, the book gets off to a strong start which continues throughout. The effects are ideal for the intermediate card worker but there is plenty of material that will also interest advanced card technicians. A feature that we love is that each effect includes a scripted presentation, which, Tom believes is vital to the impact of his effects. "In his latest book Framework, Tom Frame has assembled another fascinating collection of top-quality card magic. The serious card magician will find plenty of effects and ideas to mystify and entertain every type of audience."--Jason England. "All other things being equal, what separates a magician from the rest of the crowd is choice of material. Card enthusiasts will find some strong contenders in the pages of Framework. I enjoyed it. I think you will, too."--Mike Close. "Tom's elegant, thoughtful Framework will be a welcomed happy thing for the serious sleight of hand aficionado."--Paul Harris. "Tom Frame's new book, Framework, has some magnificent routines, fun patter, and some great tweaks to some standard moves. I can honestly say I am a better cardician now than I was before reading this book."--Allan Ackerman. Hardcover with full color dust jacket. 7" x 10". 294 pages. 238 photographs.
