Max Malini who passed away in 1942 is a mysterious legend. It is amazing how a close-up magician can become so popular based on the many stories and tricks that his contemporaries shared about him. Dai Vernon shared many stories and wrote a book about his friend.
Malini was best known for creating memorable and impossible magical moments that seemed impromptu.
The few legendary stories about him were repeated by many magicians and even used as the theme to Paul Daniels’ West End show.
Steve Cohen has dedicated his life to unearth the magic and life of this legend in a beautiful and gigantic book that features 95 routines and a ton of stories about his escapades that have never been revealed before. You will like this.
►Max Malini:
Max Malini circled the globe eight times, enthralling kings and emperors, czars, and presidents. After a private show at the White House, Theodore Roosevelt said, “A remarkable young man and a remarkable performance.”
Through the pages of Max Malini: King of Magicians, Magician of Kings Steve Cohen details a wealth of never-before-revealed information, both instructional and historical.
But the book explains far more than the mechanics of Malini’s magic. It gives new insight into his presentations, his personality, and explains how these factors made him famous.

►Show Biz Card:
After your spectator selects a card, you introduce a stack of business cards with a beautiful picture of hands on it. You riffle the stack of business cards like a flip book and the hands begin to animate. The hands clap and a deck of cards appears between them. The cards are spread in a fan and one card magically rises from the deck. The animated hand picks up the card and turns it over — it is the chosen card!
The business card with the selected card pictured on is then removed and given to your spectator to keep and use the next time they want to hire you.
