Forcing Shopping Bag by Mr. Magic

Mr. Magic is a low-price creator of magic from India.  I’m not sure who is actually behind the operation but they sell a lot of magic through their main distributor: Murphy’s Magic.  You won’t find much from Mr. Magic on my site, but recently for a great routine for the ABC blocks by Duane Lafin …

Galaxian by Stephen Tucker, Kaymar Magic

Even though I normally don’t like gimmicked versions of Paul Curry’s “Out of This World” this deck is technically not gimmicked (it is simply a deck with a half red backs and half black backs) I do like Stephen Tucker’s thinking.  This is probably more to fool magicians than something you would replace Out of …

Catch Me and Win by Gene Maze, Meir Yedid

If you like the street con type of effects you’ll love this effect.  This is the first release that Meir released c. 2019 and includes the wooden base and the DVD.  It is easy to perform and you’ll have lots of fun with this bad boy! _EF Gene Maze’s fantastic chain routine combines the Fast …

Super Block Penetration (Super Penetration) by Thomas Pohle, Eckhard Boettcher

This is an early penetration from Thomas Pohle released by the prolific German magic dealer Eckhard Boettcher. It looks effective but is a little more  involved than his later block penetrations such as: China Block Penetration and China Block Surprise. Michael Baker’s later Mandarin Block Escape uses a similar method but with Thomas’ you could …

The Wandering Mummy

This document traces the origins of The Wandering Mummy that Magic Collectors and Craftsmen around the world are so fascinated with.  It would not have been possible without the generous help of fellow Mummy enthusiasts, craftsmen and historians:  Alan Warner, François Danis, Olaf Guthling, Lorenz Schär, and Chris Wasshuber.  Ian Buckland has also been instrumental …

Review by Andy Martin for The Mummy by Eddy Taytelbaum

5 out of 5 If there is one effect that seems to capture the imagination of all Magic Collectors surely it is The Mummy or Wandering Mummy routine.   The finest example of The Mummy has to be this amazing beauty created by Eddy Taytelbaum. Between 1964 and 1966 Eddy Taytelbaum was shown either Inzani-Henley’s or …

Pocket Film Vérité by Jim Kleefeld, Eric Ross

This is a fantastic effect that is easy to do and a great fooler – at first glance it may seem similar to Simon Shaw’s Director’s Cut, but it is very different and you will be more than happy with this method and effect even if you already have Simon Shaw’s. Sadly, I overlooked Cinema …

Scaandal by Adrian Vega

_EF You may think you’ve seen A Card At Any Number before, but you’ve never seen it like this. From the creative mind of Adrian Vega, comes A Card At Any Number so good, it’s got to be criminal. This is SCAANDAL. Your spectator names any number, and THEY deal down to that number. Not …

Rider The Runaway Deck by Fantasio, Mazo Escurridizo

Meir Yedid in the video explains this better than I can.  I almost kept mine after watching the video 🙂    Not sure I agree with his comments about Collectors’ Workshop’s Runaway Deck, but otherwise Meir gives an accurate portrayal of this little bit of fun. _EF This is all the remaining stock of this precision …
