Recently a routine was released that was a slight variation of a Ted Bogusta’s Coin Club releases called George. I asked him about it, and he was able to make us a few. As with almost all his previous releases it is easy, fast, and unique. I thought you might like to get an original.

Hernan Maccagno’s Himber Wallet is an innocent looking wallet with some nice features, but what impressed me and what you will absolutely like are the routines and handlings he teaches in the tutorial. These are mostly simple routines that you would be proud to perform for friends and even paying customers. I really like most of what he teaches there.

►George:

Every few years there is a debate about removing past presidents of the United States off of the coins and bills.

This quick routine does exactly that. You show a Quarter with George Washington on it and using an eraser you erase his face from the coin.

Although it is a simple effect it uses some precision-made coins (made out of real US Quarters) and a clever method. The coin is examinable at the end.

►Hernan’s Himber Wallet:

This is handcrafted, innocent looking Himber Wallet, made of leather with red stitching.

The best part of this purchase will be the close-to-an-hour tutorial where Hernan teaches you many of his original natural handlings and routines. Most of which can also be used with any type of Himber Wallet.

You will learn multiple devious ways of innocently switching compartments, multiple ways of peeking at information that was inserted by a spectator, an easy repeat card to envelope inside wallet routine, a clever gimmick you can make to force two cards and automatically make them vanish from the deck, an easy selected card vanishes from the deck and appears in the wallet that has been under the spectator’s hand, signed card to wallet, signed selection and a Joker switch places, and a very clever multiphase routine using Aces and selections.

►Baffling Blocks:

This is a set of three blocks (approx. 4”x2”x1”) designed to present the classic Charpentier Illusion where the weight of one block is much more than the weight of three blocks lifted together. It creates an eerie feeling on the spectator who is involved.

The PDF includes many different presentations for this classic scientific puzzle. Routines include: Pseudo Hypnosis, Our Senses Fool Us, Séance and Bizarre Magic, Quantum Mechanics, A Couple In Love, Proof of Faeries, Alien Technology, and several others. What is also nice is that presentational scripts are also included for each routine.

►Candy Vault:

This is a quick and easy visual where a blue Tic Tac is placed on top of its clear box that is full of white Tic Tacs and it penetrates through, so it is inside. It can also be done in reverse, so the blue TicbTac penetrates out of the box and into your hand.

The Tic Tac box you get is not gimmicked so you can move everything from inside it to any container that houses similar looking candies.

►MY LATEST RELEASE:

►Coin Copier:

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: Several magicians asked me when the massive Gardner’s Impromptu books will be back. They have been vacationing at various post offices for the past ten days. I am told that they should arrive on Monday. Info: HERE
