Columnist: Aldo Colombili See if you like the following easy approach to the classic Torn and Restored Card. To be honest with you I usually don’t like to tear cards, but I felt that the effect of the restored card on the audience is so incredible that it’s worth a few torn cards. It uses […]
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 After having read a booklet which included some ideas using a carpenter’s ruler by Daffen Dundee, and realizing that playing cards could be revealed with the ruler, the thought evolved into this routine. This trick is part of one of my acts and with the addition of some other comedy impressions and […]
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 won’t be surprised if I tell you that I’m very fond of the Elmsley Count. So far you have discovered that I use the count a lot. If only Alex had a penny for every trick that uses his count he would be a millionaire! The following routine makes use of […]
Columnist: Aldo Colombili Steve Beam’s book SEMI AUTOMATIC CAPD TRICKS, VOL. 2 is a great one (and not only because I have a trick in it!). While reading it, one of the effects struck my ingenuity and upon practicing it, I came up with a different handling which includes a favorite move of mine, the […]
Columnist: Aldo Colombili What you will find here in Take Off has its origins in a trick by Roy Walton written in his booklet CARDBOARD CHARADES. I have changed the handling a little bit here and there, adding some subtleties. It is an almost impromptu routine requiring only a very small set up and offers […]
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 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 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 […]
