Columnist: Mike Rogers by Mike Rogers I think most magicians enjoy a good gag, so I’ll share one that I have used for several years during the holiday season. It’s a spoof on those appalling family news letters that show up with greeting cards this time of the year. This letter is not original. It […]
Columnist: Mike Rogers HER CARD, HIS NUMBER by Mike Rogers (Inspirational credit to Paul Alberstat) The effect where any thought of card appears at any named number in the deck has tweaked the interest of card men for several years. The Subway Dealers and the Memorized Deck freaks have had a heyday, as the effect […]
Columnist: Mike Rogers No, I don’t intend to discuss the events in the life or death of a recently departed member of royalty. The topic for discussion is the card trick bearing the name The Princess Card Trick. The effect is hardly new for it dates back to 1905 and is credited to American magician […]
Columnist: Mike Rogers REFLECTING By Mike Rogers Reflecting on my years in magic I look back upon what I expected to happen vs. what has actually happened. As a kid growing up in a small Wyoming town there were no other magicians. When I finished high school I had probably seen a total of ten […]

Follow along with cards in hand to get the idea. The magician holds a packet of face down cards. Spectator […]
Columnist: Mike Rogers Red-Jack Playland Red-Jack Playland By Mike Rogers The first time I ever saw a true close up miracle, one that left me absolutely clueless and beguiled, I was working the Red-Jack Playland. I doubt if many magicians have heard of the Red-Jack Playland, let alone played the room. The effect shown to […]
Columnist: Mike Rogers By Mike Rogers I love a good gag and the one I’m about to describe is truly GOLDEN! When I say “golden” it’s for the quality of the gag, and for its creator, Eddy Golden. If the name Eddy Golden rings a bell it should. For many years Eddy operated his company […]
Columnist: Mike Rogers by Mike Rogers Will magic stand for another signed card to impossible location? If so, read on.
