I am going to make a bold statement: Buying Aftermath is the best magic investment you will ever make. You will absolutely love the easy magic inside and these are powerful routines that you will probably use for the rest of your life… I know I will.
Below you will also find an outstanding routine that was one of the hits at last year’s Magic Live convention. Magicians were sending me to the Select Magic booth to check it out, they didn’t have enough left at the end for me to buy, but they told me that Viking Magic in the US has a license to manufacture it. Forgot about it until I bumped into George Robinson a couple of weeks ago and he agreed to sell me some.
►Aftermath:
If you like to perform impromptu close-up mentalism for friends in casual environments, you will love these direct math-based routines that are easy to learn and have all the mathematical methods subtly hidden from the performances.
Using these routines, you can create impossible moments with borrowed objects, during casual conversations, and in ordinary settings. You will learn nine routines that use objects like pens, business cards, smartphones, coins, or even dice and cards, that blur the line between coincidence and intuition, suggestion and impossibility.

►Chest Of Nostradamus:
It is a diabolically clever prediction where an examination of the chest or cards will not reveal the unique and original method that is built in.
You begin by showing a wooden chest suspended from four chains. The chest can hang from your extended finger (or held by a spectator or attached to a stand). You explain that the box contains two things; a deck of cards and a small envelope with a prediction inside.
Your audience member names a number between 1-52, the chains are removed from the chest, your spectator opens the chest, removes the prediction envelope and the cards. They then count down to their number in the deck.
You then reveal the prediction card that was in the envelope, and it matches the card they freely counted to. The box and the cards are now examinable.

►Mini Card Table:
This is basically a gag item but can be used for different magic routines, interludes, misdirection, or simple sight gags.
It is a plastic deck of cards that is about twenty cards thick and is hollow on the bottom. That cavity has two small table legs that swing out to make it look like a folding table.
The top surface is customizable and can be used with just about any Poker size deck of cards. All you have to do is tape or glue your favorite back design on top. You can also glue a face-up card if you like.

►MY LATEST RELEASE:
►Coin Copier:
This is an ingenious self-working coin box routine that Christian Scherer created in the 1980s. Since that time the manufacturing technology and the availability of the gimmicks used has advanced and the current version works perfectly.
The basic routine involves a metal box which is referred to as a tiny counterfeiting machine. You dump the four coins out of the box; a Japanese coin, a Swiss coin, a British coin and a US coin. Using the Japanese coin as a sample each coin is placed in the box and one at a time, as the box is waved over the Japanese coin, the coin inside instantly turns into a duplicate of the Japanese coin. This is repeated until all four coins have turned into Japanese coins and everything is examinable.

PS: In 1985 I appeared on Comedy Tonight, it was the second to last recording of me doing my Finger Fantasies act right-handed. That TV series was just uploaded to YouTube. It is amazing how many of the popular comedians and variety artists of the time vanished, while others pivoted themselves to other careers. To watch my episode, go: HERE

“Magic is near the top of the list of favorite and fascinating hobbies because it offers something for everyone. It’s an active rather than a passive hobby that requires dealing with other people.”
…Harry Lorayne (The Magic Book, 1977)
