Pocket Expert At The Card Table by Erdnase
Hello friends,
This is nothing new. In fact it has been published in one form of another continuously since 1902. But this new version is worth a definite mention.
S.W. Ednase's Pocket Expert At The Card Table
So small, you can stick it in your back pocket. Less than 1/2 inch thick but a full 206 pages.
Printed on micro thin "bible paper" with gold gilt edges.
Its about 3 inches wide by 4 inches tall with a soft leather like binding, very sturdy. And will withstand being sat on & opened and closed over & over again.
It even has an attached ribbon book mark.
This is the perfect "gift" for any magician.
I really do hope to see that other titles will be put in the same format as this one.
One thing though, the text as you can imagine is very small so it will take a bit of getting used to. But it is so cute, yo uwon't mind. I promise.
Even if you already own this title, you will cherish this mini classic and take it with you wherever you may roam.
Never read it? You are missing out!
The Classic Treatise On Card Manipulation
This book has been considered indispensable to attaining the highest level of card mastery. In it, S.W. Erdnase, a supreme master of card manipulation, teaches card enthusiasts how to perform the dazzling tricks and sleights-many of them how own creations-that made him famous.
The first section of the book deals with card table artifice, or, to put it more bluntly, cheating at cards. Step by step, Mr. Erdnase demonstrates his own systems of false shuffling, false riffling and cutting, dealing from the bottom and such slick moves as palming cards, "skinning the hand," even three-card monte.
The second section covers legerdemain: the art of forcing a card, one- and two-hand transformations, the devious "slide" and more. Card handlers will love Erdnase's selection of dazzling card tricks, including The Acrobatic Jacks, The Exclusive Coterie, The Divining Rod, The Invisible Flight, a Mind Reading Tick and many others.

Until next time,
Thanks for reading.
