| Get Together - pages 44 and 45 from, The Little Giant Encyclopedia of Card & Magic Tricks
By Diagram Group. A simple easy self worker. (Ive already come up with some simple tweaks that will make this a much more powerful trick). Effect: The deck is cut in two, the spectator takes one half, the magician takes the other. Each choose a card, place them each in their respective packets, the packets are joined, cut and the two cards have magically paired inside the deck. |
| Buckley’s Top Palm Slide Off - pages 67-68 from, Card Control: Practical Methods and Forty Original Card Experiments By Arthur Effect: An brilliant top palm technique that can be done invisibly to the spectator. (took me quite some time to understand what the author was describing but I think I get it now, well worth the time. ) |
| Buckley’s method of cutting cards to the top of the pack. - pages 78-79 of Card Control: Practical Methods and Forty Original Card Experiments By Arthur Effect: A nice way of confusingly double cutting a card to the top when seeing the selected card is not a factor as the deck is upsidedown in this one. |
| “The Stabbed Card” - page 127 & 128 The Art of Magic By T. Nelson Downs Effect: A clever method the to classic, you select card, shuffle deck, spread, I STAB! only problem with this technique is it leaves you a bit dirty at the end. |
| The Torn Card pages 139-142 - Modern magic By Professor Hoffman - I believe this may be for a makeshift intersessor type of mechanism, not sure looks very interesting. |
| The Phantom Artist - pages 100-102 of Practical Mental Magic By Theodore Annemann. EFFECT: A classic trick publish in this book in 1983 that has been resurrected recently to the form of a street magic effect. |
