Columnist: Ian Adair Three Great Routines from Ian Adair Surprise Cane Production Imagine filling up a clear tumbler with milk or any other liquid, covering its mouth with a square of tissue paper, and securing it by an elastic band. Suddenly a full sized evening cane mysteriously appears from inside the tumbler, shooting its way […]
Columnist: Ian Adair Ian Adair As a studier of children’s toys, games and comic papers, I am always amazed at the new and exciting things, which come on the market. One such thing, a pen which writes (that not new!), and records messages when spoken into. This gave me the idea of a super card […]
Columnist: Ian Adair New Colors Run Way back in the sixties, when working at Supreme, I marketed an effect called ‘Colors Run’. This consisted of a colored painting book, which, when formed into a tube and then having clear liquid poured through it, became void of its colors. The colors appeared in glasses as liquid. […]
Columnist: Ian Adair Two Yale keys are displayed, one brass and one silver in colour. A spectator is asked to name one. The performer states that, like Uri Geller, he can mysteriously bend keys and distort them beyond recognition. He does this, but the key in question has been rubbed so much that it evaporates, […]

While advertising often works – sometimes it […]
Columnist: Ian Adair Ken’s View on Kid’s Shows I was very interested in Ken de Courcy’s views on children’s shows published recently in a magazine. His advice is always worth studying. He is honest too. He tells us that he hasn’t performed any children’s shows: yet has watched hundreds. I guess he was watching his […]
Columnist: Ian Adair According to Ian Personal Notes & Notions on Magical Matters by Ian Adair Writing for Magazines I must admit I cannot count the number of magic magazines that have featured my articles and effects. Their number must surely go into the fifties. Over the years some of the magazines I have written […]
Columnist: Ian Adair Ian Adair reporting from Britain…… Hi there! Great to be back reporting on the news from Britain. The great magical news is that Paul Daniels, after 15 solid years of presenting his own television show on BBC, will be hitting our screens (and possibly in the U.S. too!), during July with his […]
Columnist: Ian Adair Here’s a comedy close-up effect, suitable for table-hoppers; if they want to be called that! EFFECT: From his pocket, the magician removes two coins, one lighter and one heavier then the other (i.e., a 50-cent piece and a penny). Holding these in one closed hand the magician ask which is the light, […]
