With more than 120 illustrations to accompany instructions to more
than 100 tricks, and a new foreword by Steven Cohen, a master of
sleight of hand, this edition of Jean Hugard's classic is an
essential edition to any illustionist's library. If you practice
any sort of magic-or plan on giving it a try-you probably know that
for most people, card tricks are often the starting point. If you
have a deck of cards readily available, as many common households
do, the only things required to wow an audience are a little
sleight of hand and a magician's secrets. In spite of the timeless
credo "good magicians never reveal their secrets," renowned
magicians Jean Hugard and Frederick Braue generously divulged
theirs in Card Tricks: The Royal Road to Card Magic. Published
originally in the 1940s, this classic guide contains more than one
hundred spectacular tricks allowing anyone to pick up a deck and
dazzle an audience-whether their performance is in a theatre, at a
party, or even on the street!
Over 100 tricks that can be done with any pack of cards-in their best professional versions. This rich collection has taught thousands of magicians how to perform dozens of eye-catching, yet really workable tricks. Over 200 illustrations. "Recommended."-Linking Ring.
Twenty-one original card effects plus 11 practical, simple sleights
by two masters of the art of card magic.
Originally published in 1938, the revised edition of Jean Hugard's
book on magic for small audiences presents such tricks as the "Cut
and Restored Handkerchief," tricks with cigarettes and dollar
bills, vesting and sleeving, and many more.
