George Robinson (of Viking Mfg.) began this idea by using the effect Tapp-it invented by U.S. amateur mathematician and magician Royal V. Heath c. 1925. George came up with the box idea, and the hidden marks in the ESP designs and shared the idea with Jeff who came up with the routine and handling. A …

Paul Curry’s Out of This World was one of the very first card effects I learned and although I’ve looked at dozen’s of different versions, his routine is still basically what I perform. So from time to time I look at others but so far nothing has made me switch. OffWorld is pretty nice and …
This is a very clean effect that is as good and clean as it looks. When I first saw the gimmick I didn’t understand how it worked until I saw the online description. Very clever thinking for sure. _EF We are pleased to offer you today a true classic of card magic in a completely …
Slate of mind was created by U.F.Grant c. 1949, and it was later improved by Aldini. Grant was influenced by Dr. Jaks’ Supersonic Card Prediction.

Originally created in the 1970s and first published c. 1982, this is one of Simon Aronson’s favorite routines. He always carries the coins with him and performs the routine often. Although custom made coin sets have been made for a few of his friends and customers over the years, this is the first time the …
5 out of 5 Just when you think you’ve seen all the variations of Anverdi’s amazing Enchanted Ring, including an almost perfect one from Dave Powell himself, along comes Dave again to create a much large stage version (which could equally be performed close-up) which is really flawless. Really works smoothly and everything can be …
My good friends over at Stevens Magic have recently released this wonderful item handmade by Louis Gaynor and Shawn Reida. And what a beautiful version of the classic effect, Blok-Kord, invented by Lyman Allen c. 1941, it is. Inspired by Howard Hale’s version this is certainly the prettiest and most robust version I have seen. …
