    MyMagic eNewsletter #1,068
    December 26, 2022

    Many years ago, when Dean Dill first released his Blizzard routine he showed it to me at my booth and fooled me with it. I immediately asked him if he would wholesale it to me and he agreed. I was attending many conventions at the time and ended up selling tons of them because every magician I showed it to was also fooled.

    Coincidentally performing Blizzard hundreds of times is what inspired me to come up with my Fadeout where I combined Dean’s premise, Joe Berg’s structure, and Marshall Brodien’s handling touches to create one of my best-selling effects. When I first showed it to Dean, he loved it and started performing it for everyone at a convention and sending them to my booth to get one. Dean was a great and humble guy.

    Penguin just released it with a plastic molded deck shell and a full video tutorial. If you are not familiar with it take a look.

    ►Blizzard:

    This was Dean Dill’s most deceptive creation. He fooled everyone with it, and you can too.

    You begin by showing a full deck of cards and having someone name any card. You then remove their card and its mates and have a spectator mix up the four cards.

    You then pick their card out of the four and explain that it was easy since the other three are now blank. Is a matter of fact, the entire deck is now blank, and everything is examinable.

    Watch and buy: HERE

    ►Fadeout:

    A deck of cards is shown front and back. A spectator names one of the cards. It is removed, shown and lost in the deck. The faces of the cards begin to vanish. You deal through the cards; every single one of them is now blank. At about the center of the deck the selected card is seen to be the only one that has not vanished.

    It is placed to one side as you continue to show the rest of the deck to be blank. A snap, a wave, and the selected card also turns blank, confirming that it was all an illusion.

    Watch and buy: HERE

    ►Camirand Academy’s Masters Of Magic Series:

    This is your chance to learn some classics of magic like a Ring On String routine, the Three Shell Game, Coins Through The Table, a Two Cup & Ball routine, a Torn & Restored Card, and much more magic and sleight of hand with cards and coins.

    Routines include: Finger On The Card, Supershells, The Silver Passage, The Two Goblets, Threshold, The Homing Ring, Eric DeCamps’ The Coin Connection, and Meir Yedid’s Royal Takeover.

    The above routines are just the main effects taught. Each section is full of variations, alternate phases, and many techniques. This book can act as a course in intermediate to advanced close-up magic.

    Watch and buy: HERE

    ►BACK IN STOCK:

    ►Past Present Future:

    You introduce a deck of tarot cards and show that on three of the cards, a single word is written. One card reads Past, another Present, and the third reads future. The cards are given a mix, and then the faces are shown, while you explain that the cards all represent something important in a person’s life. You ask the spectator to choose one card to represent their past, another to represent their present, and the last card to represent their future.

    The spectators can freely name any card they want. Those cards are clearly laid out on the table, and you then turn over the selected cards to reveal that the spectator mysteriously managed to perfectly select the cards with the words, Past, Present, and Future written on the backs of their cards.

    Watch and buy: HERE

    Stay happy, Meir

    PS: If you missed out on the new Martin Lewis books, I should get another case in around a week.

    “This unusual relationship between magician and audience gives the performer a strong sense of accomplishment, feeds his self-image, and creates a feeling of power over others, even though he may not admit it.”
    … William V. Rauscher (Goebel, 2010)
