We welcome a brilliant column by one of magic’s all time best thinkers and writers. Jon Racherbaumer. He does it again with his fabulous ability, to give us an insight to the "real works" of our magic art. I’m sure you will agree with what he has to say to us and I’m also sure […]
Speaking of "Snow White," there is a scene in that film where Snow White is standing beside a well explaining to a flock of doves about a wishing well. She demonstrates how it works, then we see her from the bottom of the well, right through the water. We see her face, shimmering in the […]
Columnist: Aldo Colombili Inspired by Peter Kane’s Jazz Aces (as many others have been as well), this is a multi-effect routine. It is impromptu and, I think, very strong. It also appeared in one of my videotapes as well as in Harry Lorayne’s APOCALYPSE but it is being reprinted here because I felt that the […]
Columnist: Aldo Colombili This is a sandwich-type routine that uses the Elmsley and Siva Counts. In this case, the “sandwich” plot is combined with the “twisting” plot to obtain a strong two-card revelation. Effect: The four Kings (or any other four-of-a-kind) are removed and placed aside. Two cards are selected and replaced. The four Kings […]
Columnist: Aldo Colombili I think this is a showy routine, full of magic and I am very fond of it. It was published in Linking Ring Magazine (my third Parade, October 1994.) The approach is at least a different one, giving to the Assembly Type routine the variation of using a progressive theme. EFFECT: The […]
Columnist: Aldo Colombili This is a variation of a trick by Stephen Tucker. I have changed the modus operandi and I use a deck only and not a packet of duplicates. It was published in the past in Linking Ring magazine. Although the trick is relatively easy to do, it has an effective and bewildering […]
Columnist: Aldo Colombili I have already told You that I like Oil & Water routines. As a matter of fact, I collect them. This routine has been in my repertoire since 1977 (how time flies!). It is strong in impact and it’s one of my all-time favorite effects. It is a nice lead in for […]
Columnist: Aldo Colombili This is not an earth-shaker but it can be a nice interlude to something heavier. I’ll explain the basic idea with small and regular cards. The basic plot belongs, I believe, to Roy Walton, the clever cardman from Glasgow, Scotland. Several other magicians have explored this effect and have come up with […]
Columnist: Aldo Colombili You may find dozens of variations on the Assembly theme as several prominent authors have explored this type of effect. Bob King has a very good assembly routine in his book MAGICIAN FOOLERS and Daryl has made famous his routine by employing a special count found in RICHARD’S ALMANAC as well as […]
Columnist: Aldo Colombili Elmsley Count Well you may say that I am mad and out of my mind trying to teach a sleight that has been around for ages and should by now be known by all. But it is surprising how many magicians approach me during my lectures at conventions and ask me to […]
