In the early decades of the 20th century, Ellis Stanyon was a leading figure in the field of magic. His card tricks were among the cleverest ever devised. Hundreds of the best tricks, selected from rare issues of the influential monthly Magic dating from 1912 to 1920, are presented in this book, edited by Karl Fulves. Fulves introduces the tricks with expert commentary and practical advice on how modern magicians can best perform them. Included are relatively complex tricks involving mathematical calculation, a prearranged deck or the discovery of a chosen card, as well as simple card tricks for beginners. Here, too, are tricks involving card reading, forcing a card, palming a card, false shuffling, false cutting and more. Amateur and professional magicians alike will find fascinating material for their routines here, expertly presented, and clearly illustrated in over 150 drawings. |
