Trick of the Month – June 2010

More recommendations from Bicycle-Cards.co.uk

Genesis - essential cardistry If you’ve ever wanted to get into Cardistry in its purest form, this is a great introduction. It takes you from the very basics all the way to some very showy flourishes. All taught by the inimitable Andrei Jikh £26.99

OCL One Card Link - By Ben Williams - DVD

This is a fantastic impossible effect. You tear two card circles from a chosen card and then magically link them together leaving an examinable ‘take home’ impossibility. Brilliant! Taught on DVD by Ben Williams. £19.99

Worlds Beyond - Paul Curry
I always like to mention a magic book because I continue to be a massive fan of the genre! Paul Curry is one of the most original magic thinkers ever – creator of the original and brilliant Out of this World trick. Here are 400 pages of classic Curry. £32.99

Trick of the Month – November 2009

Apologies for the late posting of this. I was down in Portsmouth for the Jumbo Day and had a few days off, so here is the belated trick of the month…

Magic From The Session (Book) - Andi Gladwn If you’re a fan of good card magic you will be familiar with The Session – an annual convention for those who love their cards. This little booklet contains 6 great tricks from the first Session in 2006 and is currently at the bargain (half-) price of £2.50
A Visual Coin Effect - Squished - By Ben Williams Here’s a great and unusual way to perform a card revelation – by imprinting the image on a squished coin! Just like those classic machines at the seaside. £14.99
Aronson Approach - By Simon Aronson Having just come back from a small convention, most of my new ‘goodies’ were in the shape of books, so here’s a plug for a great book for Card Magicians. Simon Aronson needs little introduction for those familiar with card magic. This book has effects from the essentially self-working to those that require rather more work, and some mental magic too. £24.99
