Six Masterpieces by Wayne Dobson

get it here
Introduction by Stephen Tucker, April 2011:
Forget The Magnificent Seven and The Famous Five, instead... prepare to encounter Six Masterpieces from the fertile mind of Wayne Dobson.

The six jaw-droppingly good routines in this book were originally destined to be either marketed, as individual tricks, or unleashed on the unsuspecting magic world in the form of, what would have had to be, a high priced DVD. However, in these times of economic uncertainty, rather than put you to all that expense... Wayne has saved you a small fortune by publishing them all in this little book, which has cost you a fraction of what just one of the tricks would have cost as a marketed item.

To do this, he has had to put his thinking cap on and adapt all six routines so that you will be able to perform them with props that you either already have, will be able to buy o r can make at very little cost.

My personal favorite is Once upon a Time- a routine which truly has a fairy tale ending! Wayne has cleverly built the prop for this item into the book itself.... genius!

Settle down now, fasten your safety belts, extinguish those cigarettes and enjoy the company of; Best Friends, Amnesia, Only Joking, Every Time, Perspiration and The Once upon a Time.

Best Friends: You predict which 2 of 5 coins are selected!

Amnesia: 2 signed cards change places!

Only Joking: Their chosen card, matches your prediction, and the rest are... Jokers!

Every Time: You predict the hour they think of!

Perspiration: You reveal which colored coins are in their hands and predict the one they left in a purse!

Once Upon A Time: They cut and shuffle repeatedly, yet you predict 25 face up, 16 red, etc.

Outlaw Bicycle Deck by US Playing Card

Outlaw Bicycle Deck by US Playing Card

Outlaw Bicycle Deck by US Playing Card

get it here
Bicycle xXx : Outlaw

The xXx : Outlaws represent a new standard in playing card design.

With a photo realistic back print and box design and a gritty, yet sleek joker and ace of spades, the outlaw deck sits perfectly in the hands of both the modern street magician and the contemporary professional.

Drawing inspiration from the prohibition and Rudyard Kipling's poem 'The Outlaws,' the stylish back print weaves in and out of jet black with layers of poetic script throughout.

The triple X stands strong on the head of either end of each card, sitting on top of classic pistols and roses expressing the fact that nothing is impossible with passion and ruthlessness.

The full moon that sits at the heart of each card has an ultra-subtle one way design for marking selected cards and is the perfect shade of light grey to have small predictions of numbers or initials written upon it.

Included in each deck are two jokers, one of which with a three of diamonds reveal. As well as the jokers, you will receive one blank faced Outlaw card and an Outlaw/Red Mandolin double backed card.

The first deck from the 1914 collective. Designed by alt-magician Dee Christopher and produced by Titanas Magic Productions.

Spectrum by Paul Gordon

get it here
Effect: Five cards are shown to be five duplicates. The cards are turned over to reveal faces on both sides; there are no backs. Then, instantly, five red backs are shown. One card is pocketed; the remaining duplicates are shown to have four totally different back colours. NEW VERSION. Better in every way! Thinner packet, more magical, easy set-up etc., etc.

Ends clean! All cards supplied. This is one of Paul Gordon's favourite pocket card tricks. It was first released in the 90's, but is back with a much better handling. WATCH the video demo - see right.

It's a killer multi-surprise packet trick and only requires intermediate card skills. 'Again, Paul Gordon has created another 'worker' blockbuster!' - Magic Cafe

This IS a killer! Jeepers Creepers is the phrase a well-known card magician (J.C Wagner) gulped when I first showed it him. Watch the video to see a royal flush magically appear...and then some! This is a practical strolling trick that packs a heck of a wallop.

Regular cards - regular sleights! All can be examined at the end.

'Hey Paul; this is a killer. I didn't see the flush coming...and as for the extra surprise, I gotta' say you really fooled me.' JC Wagner (Blackpool 2008)

A HIT with most magicians. See the RAVES in your fav magic magazine!

Spell Binder Volume One by Stephen Tucker

Spell Binder Volume One by Stephen Tucker

Spell Binder Volume One by Stephen Tucker

get it here
Martin Breese says: I had an inspiration the other day and asked Stephen Tucker to think about taking the four best effects from his Spell Binder magazine and putting them on a DVD. Stephen chose the following: 

Pilgrim - Four Aces, each covered by three court cards magically move from packet to packet finally ending up all together in the file pile. 

Half and Half - A selected card appears in the performer's pocket. Well half a card anyway. The half card is placed on the deck and is bizarrely pushed through another card becoming completely whole. Everything can be examined. 

Status Quo - A small square of paper, torn into four places, magically restores itself piece by piece. You are left ending completely clean. 

Quadra Queen 3 - Three Quee ns are cut to in the deck. Trying to locate the fourth Queen you find an Ace. You decide to change the first three Queens into Aces, but when the cards are turned over they have become three Fives. The first Ace then also changes into a Five. The four Queens are then revealed from four different pockets. 

Spell Binder magazine was published by Stephen Tucker over a period of 3 years from May 1981 to April 1984 and had a total of 716 pages and hundreds and hundreds of routines and tricks. The above tricks and routines are very clearly demonstrated on this DVD and they were all invented by Stephen. We will be releasing a whole series of Spell Binding DVDs and the next ones to be released will cover effects from other contributors and they will be the four or five effects that Stephen considers to have been the very best he published in his fabulous magazine.

Running time: Approximately 1hr 53mins

LICKED at last! 

 Corner Of Piccadilly meets Triple Kick Monte but easier than both...and NO pocket 'ploy!' Just watch the video to see just how darned practical and magical it is. It's a three/four card monte (find the lady) effect with two killer kicker endings. Only uses standard sleights and is examinable at the end.

The Lives of a Showman by Mark Lewis

The Lives of a Showman by Mark Lewis

The Lives of a Showman by Mark Lewis

get it here
It's not hard to find dignified biographies of dead magicians whose lives have been carefully reconstructed by erudite scholars. But a living, breathing, memoir of a contemporary magician who is willing to 'tell it like it is' -- and able to tell it in a hugely entertaining manner, to boot -- is an entirely different matter. The Lives of a Showman is just such a book.

Mark Lewis is a close-up and cabaret magician, a children's performer, a pitchman, a psychic and a hypnotist - and now, a writer. In this wonderfully engaging memoir, you will follow him from his early beginnings in posh London nightclubs to pitching Svengali decks in Blackpool, from being the most famous psychic in Dublin to becoming a hypnotist in Toronto, from performing for drunks to performing for royalty, and much, much more. Along the way, you will meet a cast of colourful and often remarka ble people, none more so than the author himself:

'Mark is one of the truly interesting characters in the world of show business. He has a brilliant yet wicked sense of humour, and is often misunderstood by his peers. As someone who has known him for much of his life, I consider him to be a man of incredible talent as both a performer and grafter [demonstrator]. He is extremely resourceful, and is a walking encyclopedia when it comes to magic and other branches of entertainment. His life is truly one of mystery and intrigue, and he is a wonderful raconteur as will be seen in the pages of this masterpiece. I would consider Mark to be a true showman, and his personality is indeed multi-faceted. I know you will love reading 'The Lives of a Showman'.'
- Roger Blakiston, a.k.a. Jolly Roger

The Lives of a Showman is a pure delight. Whether you like biographies, wonder what life in show business is really like, or simply enjoy reading and having a few l aughs, you owe it to yourself to get this book.

Pages: 301 - Hardcover
