When party guests
request a few tricks, be prepared. Ask for a coin, and perform
some of the trick sin this book. Because you will not have been
aided by special stage apparatus, the results will be all the
more astonising. As tricks with coins are so readily improvised,
they are among the most impressive forms of legerdemain.
This book is the
most complete treatise ever written on sleight-of-hand coin
conjuring. Celebrated magician J.B. Bobo has gathered here the
best and most useful of all coin tricks-not only his own, but
those of some four dozen notable prestidigitators, including
such greats as Robert-Houdin, Professor Hoffmann and-the
greatest of all coin conjurers-T. Nelson Downs.
All the tested,
traditional methods of coin magic are here. Bobo has added to
these the best of the modern innovations, while eliminating all
the out-of-date and impractical sleights of his sources. You
will learn all about palms, holds, flips, switches,
change-overs, steals, cuffing, sleeving and other
sleight-of-hand techniques; coin tricks requiring special
devices are also included. The author guides you systematically
from basic techniques, concealments and vanishes, through
integrated tricks, to complete routined acts (18 in all). His
clear explanations are splendidly complemented by 510
illustrations.
Sleight-of-hand
magic has consistently earned the respect of professional
magicians . If you are yet an amateur, this easy-to-follow
manual-together with regular practice-is the surest route to
professional level competence. For professionals, this volume is
a convenient encyclopedic reference that gathers in one place
