I am very happy with this new limited edition hardcover book. It contains some outstanding close-up routines.
From 1979-1986 the Camirand Academy of Magic released its Masters Of Magic Series of booklets teaching polished routines that were explained in detail. Many of those routines, techniques, and sequences inspired a generation of magicians.
Below and on the website, you will find more about the contents, but the one question I got was if there is anything new in this compilation that was not in the original series. In addition to a new foreword and introduction you get the second edition of Finger On The Card which was greatly improved. The Silver Sanctum section includes a new ending, and the book includes a bonus routine by me titled “Royal Takeover.”
This is an oversized hard-cover, printed on glossy paper with 272-pages and more than 580-photographs.
You can look at the massive table of contents and read the new foreword and introduction: 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.

Stay happy, Meir

“My private obsession is magic, close-up to be precise. I consider it a very complete art form: it is demanding, compelling, rewarding, seductive. I love it.”
…Gary Ouellet (The Two Goblets, 1980)
