The Supalok was released by Mick Hanzlik in the UK c. 2004. Mick eventually created three different sizes (Standard, Midi, and Maxi). This is the Midi one and at about 3″ x 2″ it is the perfect size for most routines. What I particularly like about this lock is that the whole effect is done …
_EF “Brother John Hamman’s Lost Works” contains six DVDs with over 97 original card effects, both performed and explained by Bro. John Hamman. Highly recommended. Over 11 hours of footage.

_EF This book could well be called The Unmasking of Harry Houdini. Was Houdini, as the long-standing myth begs us to believe, truly the world’s greatest magician? Did he communicate a secret message to his wife through a famous spirit medium? Today there exists a century’s worth of books, movies and television documentaries that contribute …
_EF In the most comprehensive biography written about the great illusionist yet, author Ken Silverman, who has won both a Pulitzer and a Bancroft prize, draws on never-before-used scrapbooks, personal diaries, court transcripts and hundreds of unpublished notes and letters collected from around the world to reveal a far richer, more personal view of Houdini …
_EF To learn more about the life and time of Dai Vernon get this book “The Vernon Chronicles, Volume 4 – He Fooled Houdini, Dai Vernon a Magical Life.” It contains many fascinating anecdote about Dai’s Life, but only a few magic tricks. This probably explains why so few copies of this book are in …
_EF Houdini wrote a very nasty book about Robert-Houdin claiming that Robert-Houdin stole many tricks and was in reality not as great a magician as he usually is portraied. Jean Hugard sets with this book the record straight and reveals Houdini’s fabricated arguments. Houdini’s unmasking of Robert-Houdin was just a revenge on Robert-Houdin’s family and …
The legendary British Inventor, Craftsman, and Dealer Jack Hughes invented many staples in magic that we take for granted today (including: TV Card Frame (1936), Coins in Glass (before Copenetro) (1939), Clatter Box (1951) and many more. He also invented this beauty, Attaboy, c. 1937. Both of these versions were made by Abbott’s in Colon, …
This is a very unique example of a helpful printer of days gone by making an honest mistake while trying to be helpful to the famous Harry Houdini. This poster was obtained from Jerry Matallo (not certain of the correct spelling) who was Houdini’s metal worker. At some point in time after Houdini’s passing, he …
This is basically a modern version the Anverdi’s brilliant Electronic Surprise Box and works perfectly, for a great price too!
