Comments: (Nathan Hyman) Jay Sankey's first book on magic.
Plenty of close up magic with cards, coins, and even balloons
Contents (updated 10/2015):
9 Introduction
11 Elastic Infiltration: A rubberband with an initialed
sticker
stuck around it is wrapped around the the outside of a card box.
The
rubberband suddenly vanishes and is found wrapped around the deck
inside the box!
13 Please Don't Feed the Cards: A "trained" deck of cards
gives a
demonstration of its defenses and half the deck catches a selected
card
in between it from the other half which is dribbled to the table!
17 Cartesian Coins: A unique visual illusion used to produce
four
coins in a magic manner!
20 Forgery: A very commercial routine in which an "X" drawn
on
the back of a card with a permanent marker is transported from
it's
place onto others cards and various places, multiplying itself on
another surface to make two "X"s at the end!
23 Mineral Withdrawal: An ungimmicked/gaffed production of
four
coins without the use of a table!
25 Squiggle: A triple prediction of the most powerful sort
in
which a squiggle mark drawn randomly on the back of a card by a
spectator is predicted dead on, the ink color of that mark, and
the
card it is drawn on!
28 HPC - CPH No. 1: The best form of the Hang Pien Chien
move you
will ever read that can handle a variety of new applications that
the
original version could not!
31 The Red Prediction: A routine resembling "Red Hot Mamma",
where the identity of a signed card is predicted by an odd backed
card
with the word "Prediction" written on the back. Jay doesn't stop
there
though...Then he makes their signature fly onto the prediction
card!
33 Claustrophobic Coins: A simple copper/silver
transposition
ending with seemingly impossible climax where one of the coins
appears
in a card case!
36 Clue: An entire signed card routine based off the board
game
Clue®! Who done it!?
39 HPC - CPH No. 2: A different reversion of the first HPC:
CPH.
41 Underwraps: A marked quarter and a small coin purse
change
places several times ending with the marked quarter vanishing and
reappearing inside the coin purse!
43 Bill Fusion: Two borrow $1 bills are crumpled up into
balls,
"fused" together", and when they are unraveled, they have melded
together to form one $2 bill!
46 Invisible Companion: A routine based on Dai Vernon's
"Brainwave" with a commercial, practical, and and ungaffed
approach!
50 Hot Cross: A coins across where the hands don't touch and
the
coins aren't repetitively counted into each hand.
53 Bridging the Gap: Quite possibly the most unique idea for
coins traveling from point A to point B! Coins in one hand
magically
pass through a clear tube they cannot even fit in and pass to the
other
hand where they are normal and properly sized!
57 Only In Self Defense: Three cards are chosen by a
spectator.
An indifferent card is thrust into the pack landing straight
between 2
of the selections!
59 The Copper Clutch: A wild coin routine done with Jay's
HPC:
CPH and a deck rubberbanded in a triangular formation in place of
a cup!
61 Floater: A quick, simple sight gag where a full deck
adheres
itself to your index finger for a moment or two!
64 Split Ends: A card stab routine where the stab card not
only
locates a selected card but embeds itself in the layers of the
card!
67 The Money That Cannot Be Spent: A signed coin impossibly
finds
its way from the magician's hands back into the spectator's
possession!
*Contains a genius method for obtaining a duplicate coin signed by
a
spectator!*
69 Memory Ink: A coin is signed by a spectator and the mark
is
shown to be wiped off onto a small piece of paper when it is not
given
time to dry. The paper is balled up and placed on top of the
quarter.
It is lit on fire and vanished in a flare of flame and light only
to
have the spectator's mark reappear on that very same coin!
70 Melt Down: The aluminum foil wrapping of a deck of cards
rewraps itself around the deck using a bit of heat!
72 The Four Dimensional Coin: A coin is visibly pushed
through
the surface of a dollar bill.
74 Down In Flames: A signed small sheet of paper that is
signed
is used to make a mini paper air plane. That plane is lit on fire
only
to reappear else where still with the spectator's signature!
76 Hotfoot: A really powerful signed card routine where
Ambitious
Card is done with two separate signed selections...At the
end...they
fuse together into one card!
79 Tightfisted In Italy: A routine based on a Michael Weber
effect using small coin purses, signatures, and ITALIAN LIRE!
81 Two For the Spice of One: An excellent restaurant routine
using pepper and salt shakers!
83 Sound For Thought: A unique coins across routine using a
very
nice gimmick!
85 Turn of the Century: A marked coin's date changes four
times
upon being spun around!
87 Collect Me Not: A collectors routine where the collected
cards
vanish from your hands leaving only the three selections, and
reappear
on the top of the deck!
91 Tempus Fugitives: More magic based on the Revolution
Count
used in Collect Me Not!
94 Change Under Pressure: An ungimmicked and virtually
impromptu
coin in balloon routine with almost no sleight of hand!
97 The Cardboard Contortionists: Jay's torn and restored
card
routine done with two signed selections at once!
103 The Visible Coin Assembly: One of Jay's ideas for a coin
assembly where the coins visually skittle across the table joining
other coins in other parts of the table.
106 Airtight: The signed card in and out of balloon
penetration
effect performed by David Copperfield on national television!
106 The Cups Runneth Over: Jay's knockout cups and balls
routine
involved cups and balls of all sizes!
