Synopsis

This book presents the author's original coin tricks as designed and performed in his celebrated stage act. These tricks, published here for the first time, include the author's "Continuous Front and Back Hand Palm" which allows the performer to seemingly vanish and produce coins at will with both hands shown empty front and back even as the fingers are extended apart. The author also teaches how to perform the "Elusive Pass" in which half a dozen coins seem to pass from one hand to another in full view yet are actually retained in the first hand for later production. Of special interest is the author's "Misers Dream" trick, in which a single coin is seemingly caught out of thin air, then vanishes and is reproduced multiple times in succession from the hat and elsewhere on the performer's person, apparently multiplying itself. The author's instructions are so thorough and clearly explained that even a novice magician should be able to master each trick with a little practice. Whether you're a magician looking to expand your repertoire or a casual reader interested in the art of conjuring, this book is sure to provide hours of entertainment and insight into the fascinating world of coin manipulation.
