Book excerpt: KAHNCEPTUAL CARD MAGIC: More Deceptive Practices With Playing Cards is a NEW 140 page photo-illustrated book featuring ten extraordinary card effects for magicians with intermediate to advanced card handling skills. All of the routines in this book are practical, real world performance pieces. Eighty-two photos accompany the text to highlight all of the intricate handling details. IN-THE-HANDS OPEN PREDICTION (IHOP) A two deck solution to Paul Curry''s classic Open Prediction Problem with an unexpected ending that the audience will never see coming. An inexplicable miracle! PREDICTED CARD AT THOUGHT OF NUMBER A fun and easy-to-do prediction. The magician is somehow able to foresee which playing card a spectator will shuffle to a secretly thought of number. NAME, RANK AND SERIAL NUMBER Eight random cards are removed from a deck. After a series of thorough shuffles by both the magician and the audience, the order of the cards miraculously matches the serial number on a bill that was laying on the table the entire time. YOU DID DO-IT-YOURSELF A classic of magic with a twist! A spectator locates his freely chosen card by stabbing an indifferent card into the deck while the cards are held behind his back. The selection then proves to be the only odd backed card in the entire deck. No forces! THE QUEEN''S LIE DETECTOR Martin Gardner''s classic Lie Speller plot revisited with a brilliant kicker prediction. Incorporates ideas of J.K. Hartman, Marty Kane and Jim Steinmeyer. THE JOKE''S ON YOU (REDUX) An extremely visual card transposition meets Brother John Hamman''s Mystery Card plot. TRIPLE WHAMMY In a uncanny display of skill, the magician instantly cuts to the mates of three free spectator selections in a truly shuffled deck. A TRIBUTE TO HENRY A.W. NOMIS The classic Stop Trick revisited. A spectator shuffles a red deck and a card of their choice is placed sight unseen into the card box. A blue deck is then introduced and a second spectator stops on a random card as they are turned face up. Both selections match! At no time does the performer look at the faces of the cards. (TO THE FOURTH POWER)4 As a deck is dealt face up, four mystery cards are left face down in the pack at the spectator''s direction. These four selections ultimately match the magician''s prediction. Is it a quadruple coincidence or is it fate? The climax will answer that question definitively. ZIPPED UP & LOCKED AWAY A card is freely selected, signed and lost in the deck. The cards are dribbled onto a sealed zipper-style storage bag where the signed selection defies the laws of physics ending up INSIDE the sealed bag. Solid through solid. This is the original! WHAT MAGICIANS ARE SAYING ABOUT KAHNCEPTUAL CARD MAGIC AND SCOTT KAHN: "Scott is one of my favorite session mates. As a result, I''ve been able to see these ideas develop and grow into their current form. They started off strong and kept getting better and better. This book is a treat for card workers looking for practical, powerful magic." - Caleb Wiles "Powerful, take no prisoners card magic. If this were 1692, Scott would surely be on trial for witchcraft." - Michael Kaminskas "Kahn''s approach to magic is similar to that of his medical career, prescribing solutions that breathe new life into classic card magic." - John Guastaferro "Your In-The-Hands Open Prediction is a wonderful way of turning the plot upside down. I was severely fooled! In fact, I wish I had seen all of the routines in this book first before reading them to experience being totally fooled!" - Tomas Blomberg "Scott Kahn is a must study for those into card magic. He tackles a wide range of plots with a unique approach." - Ryan Schlutz

Four For One And One For All Four Jacks undoubtedly placed reversed into four different parts of the deck instantly change places with a signed selection held by the performer. The Kure False Cut A flourishy, deceptive in-the-hands full deck false cut. The Kure Pop-Out Move A finger-flicking production of a selected card that not only looks impossible but is oh so fun to perform. Stale Moldy Bread The Visitor plot revisited... using odd-backed cards. Take Two A simple yet effective double two card transposition that will leave your audience gasping. Let's Twist Again Twisting the Aces... with a twist. Triple Coincidence Three odd-backed predictions shuffled into a deck prove to be the three cards freely selected by three audience members. No forces! No duplicates! Simply ingenious! "Scott Kahn is a wonderfully inventive creator who is worth keeping your eyes on.

Download or read book After Hours Magic written by Gordon Boyd and published by Gary Thatcher. This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attention All Serious Card Magicians: A card magic book has been created that you should own! Details are as follows: This book contains 86 card tricks. Not a typo. That’s right, 86! 73 of the tricks were created by a relatively unknown magician by the name of Al Thatcher (71 in the main book and 2 bonus tricks in the addendum). 13 tricks are from the fertile minds of more recognizable names in magic. Al was a good friend and cohort of Nick Trost. They both resided in Columbus, Ohio and spent many hours together creating. If you have ever read any of Nick’s books you probably have seen Al’s name mentioned several times. His hand-written files have been assembled and incorporated into a book. Along with that 13 other magicians have each contributed a trick to be incorporated into this book. A big thank you goes to the magicians who contributed tricks to the addendum of this book. Their generosity should not be overlooked. It is with their kind help that the card magic of Al Thatcher might become better known. These magicians are listed below. Tom Craven, Stephen Bargatze, Gary Plants, Mike Powers, Dan Block, Steve Beam, Del Copley, Wynn Mertz, Nick Trost (Courtesy of H & R Publishing), Robert Bengel, Evert Chapman, Gordon Boyd, and Richard Bartram Jr. This book of card magic and will introduce you to a talented card man who has so far traveled in the shadows of other great creators of card magic. It will also provide you with 13 card tricks from other well-known card magicians. This is the deal of the year! While not for the beginning card magician, the effects contained in this book are certainly within the reach of the intermediate card magician. The most difficult sleight would probably be an overhand stock shuffle or the “Elmsley Count”--pretty basic indeed. If you like effects that use the “Breather Crimp,” you will be pleased with what you find in these pages. Al liked creating effects that used the “Breather” and there are many such effects in this book. In short, it is a book that will satisfy the most discerning magician and provide him/her with several effects that are worth many times the price of the book.Sleights and shuffles mentioned and used in this book include the Australian deal, Biddle Count, bottom slip shuffle, breather crimp, Charlier shuffle, Cull place shuffle, double buckle, double undercut, Elmsley Count, false cut, false shuffle, gambler’s cop, half pass, halo cut, Hamman Count, Hindu shuffle, jog shuffle, overhand shuffle, pinky break, reverse Faro shuffle, riffle force, running overhand shuffle, spectator peek, straddle Faro shuffle, swing cut, swivel cut, thumb break, and top change.
