Trick of the Month – April 2010

More recommendations from Bicycle-Cards.co.uk

Silent Running - by Ben Harris - INSTANT DOWNLOADThis one only came out yesterday so I have not had a chance to look at it yet. But it is a close cousin of Ben’s Crossroads effect – which I am a big fan of. So I have no hesitation in recommending this. Ben always produces well thought through magic and this sounds great. £26.99

Ascension props and DVDI have always liked the classic ‘rising card’ effect. Nick Langham has taken the effect and combined it with another classic principle to produce a knockout effect which is easy to do. All beautifully produced on Bicycle stock. £19.99

Wonder Clock

Regular readers will no of my soft-spot for mentalism. This is, obviously, a non-card item, but is a nice piece of mental magic with an attractive hand-crafted prop. Currently over 30% off at £14.99

Trick of the Month – October 2009

Crossroads - By Ben Harris - INSTANT DOWNLOAD This is my favourite kind of card effect – with an impossible location of a thought of card. And it can also be presented in the ACAAN format which is a double bonus for me. Available as an instant download or in print, both at £22.50
6 HALLUCINATIONS by ED MARLO - INSTANT DOWNLOAD Here’s another instant download with the serious cardworker in mind. The late, great Ed Marlo provides one gimmicked, and five (yes FIVE!) non-gimmicked handlings for this classic Hallucination plot. Only £6.99
Act Two By Barrie Richardson Regular readers will know I am a big fan of books (one day I may post a listing of my little library up here somewhere) and also of mental magic. I recently purchased this second excellent volume from Barrie Richardson. If you love subtle and entertaining mental magic, look no further. £34.99 (the first volume – Theatre of the Mind is also available for £29.99)
