BEST TEACHER OF DVD'S by HARRY LORAYNE
Harry Lorayne is probably the BEST teacher of - entertainer with - close-up
magic ... EVER! When Harry Lorayne teaches on camera, it's almost as if he's
sitting with you in your own living room, helping you, guiding you. It will be
hard for you to decide which you enjoy more - the performance or his
explanations. As he teaches a particular routine, he also teaches each sleight,
each move, the psychology, and the attitude. Watching Harry Lorayne is watching
impromptu close-up magic at its best. Each and every effect, idea, routine in
this entire series can be done with a borrowed deck of cards. You'll be thrilled
by Harry Lorayne's performing and teaching ability, by his judgment,
selectivity, attention to detail. He never abandons you; whatever he teaches, he
teaches thoroughly, he walks you through it hand in hand. Be prepared to sit,
watch, enjoy - and learn!
VOLUME # 8
- DEAL AND DUCK With minds like Bill Simon and Harry Lorayne, there's
no way you can go wrong. Here's a blockbuster concept that requires no
sleight of hand at all.
- MANIPULATIVE ACES Do you want people to talk about your fantastic,
incredible, card handling? You do? Just learn this.
- TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER This was one of Harry's favorites out of
Close-Up Card Magic, way back in 1962. It still is. See it performed by, and
learn it from, the master.
- TAG ALONG ACES (Richard Vollmer) This is so strong! The camera's
eye widened at the end when the three aces materialized.
- THE AMBITIOUS CARD ROUTINE Put any deck of cards in Harry's hands
and this is the first routine he'll do for laymen. You can't possibly do
stronger card magic than this.
- MATHEMATICAL AFFINITY Learn how you can hide a mathematical
principle and have a blockbuster effect on your hands.
- REVERSE FARO ENDING Multiply "utilitarian" by one
hundred! You'll never again be at a loss as to how to end a selected-card
trick-or how to magically find the last ace in a four-ace routine.
- SUPER LOCATION You'll fool all your magician friends with this one.
(Just as you will with all the other effects in this series.) It sure fooled
the roomful of magicians during the taping.
- COLOR-CHANGING DECK There have been many color-changing deck
routines. We challenge anyone to find a better one than Harry's.
- VANISHING DECK Wow! What a way to end your card session-just make
the deck disappear. No gimmicks.

VOLUME # 9
- INTER-DIMENSION (Eddy Taytelbaum) An anywhere, any time, little gem
of card magic. Look at Harry's performance only; you'll be badly fooled.
Then learn this easy-to-do little miracle.
- TWO GAMBLERS & A MAGICIAN (Randy Wakeman) Harry takes the
"magician versus gambler" theme to new levels, new plateaus, new
dimensions. A killer routine.
- SNAP! Here's the rubber-band effect that started the whole
rubber-band-trick craze. The linking, the penetrating, etc., all came about
after Harry's Snap! It's been ripped off, imitated, "variationed,"
from here to summer and back again. But nothing compares to the original.
See it done right, learn it right.
- LORAYCES (Tim Wenk; Harry Lorayne) You'll locate the four aces as
nobody has ever located them before -with any deck. All of Harry's
incredible routines are done with a regular deck.
- WATCH ME WORK (Randy Wakeman; Harry Lorayne) A gambling
demonstration that "rings true." Your audience will believe and
enjoy, and marvel at, every exciting moment of it.
- SANDWICHANGE Typical Lorayne. The wrong card is seen to be between
a pair of mates. It never leaves that position yet, it magically changes to
the "right" (the selected) card.
- SANDWICHANGE FOR HOFZINSER (Meir Yedid) Then, use the same easy
maneuver for a Hofzinser routine that has stood the test of time. So much
better than the original!
- LORAYNE BLUFF COUNT It's a "bluff" but, boy, is it a good
one. Four of a kind changes to a different four of a kind in an instant.
- THE MOVING PENCIL Probably the best "special kind" of
force ever devised. It's been used and copied by cardmen all over the world.
The routine lets your spectator do the magic.
- MULESHOE GAMBLER This routine stands head and shoulders above
probably every gambling demonstration, with a regular deck, ever thought of,
devised, invented, published!

VOLUME # 10
- EASY INDICATOR We believe that there is no faster or more magical
four-card cull than this. It's an any (shuffled) deck startler!
- INSTANT FACE-UP CATCH (Steve Naidich; Harry Lorayne) You'll use
this card revelation immediately. When Harry Lorayne teaches, you learn!
- FOURSOME We watched Harry do this one for a group of twelve laymen.
We watched twelve jaws drop in disbelief.
- OUT OF MY CONTROL How can you find a selected card that's
"really" lost? Let your spectator do it for you! Learn this, and
learn a couple of great sleights at the same time.
- SIX CARD ROYAL This is one of the wonderful effects out of Doug
Edwards Packs a Wallop. The combination of "four"-card repeat,
lost-card location, and magical Royal-Flush appearance will probably elicit
cheers from your spectators.
- MY SECOND KEEPER (John Quine) No matter now much the deck is
(really) shuffled, the vital card is always, always, where you want it to be
-always under your control.
- ONE-EYED JACK SANDWICH Harry says he doesn't know whether he wants
to accept the credit-or the blame-for starting the "sandwich"
craze with this effect. This is still the best of them all. An almost
perfect card effect.
- TWO-CARD TRICK The late Bro. John Hamman said that Harry did the
best handling of this lovely little gem, one of John's own favorites. And
Harry raves about John's intriguing concept. What a marvelous piece of card
magic it is! It originally "saw the light" in an early issue of
Apocalypse.
- COLOR-CHANGING DECK #2 Sit back, relax, just watch - and be
entertained. Harry doesn't teach this one on camera, but he does give a
couple of printed hints about the modus operandi.
- HARRY'S MEMORY LECTURE/DEMONSTRATION A professional taping of one
of Harry's live lectures-entertaining and educational!

PEA & SHELL
GAME by PHIL CASS
Phil Cass is one of the leading performers in Australia. A
recipient of the "Australian Variety Artist's 'Mo' Award" as "The
Best Specialty Act In Australia" for seven consecutive years he has also
won awards for his close-up and comedy magic shows.
This DVD features Phil performing and explaining his Pea &
Shell Game routine that is widely considered as one of the best Shell Game
routines ever created.
Commonly referred to as the Shell Game it is a magical routine
based on the classic con game using three walnut shells and one small pea. The
mark tries to guess which shell the pea is under, and they always lose. Phil has
made this the mainstay of his close-up work for many years and those willing to
study his presentation, technique and timing will have a complete 20-minute act
added to their repertoire. Just wait until you see the killer climax.
In addition to the techniques of the routine Phil discusses at
length the psychology of how to make the routine interesting, challenging,
confrontational and of course entertaining.
"The most commercial and magical Pea & Shell Game I've
ever seen... and I've seen 'em all!" ...Roger Klause
"No question, it is one of the best 'presentations' I have
seen on the scam and how he NAILS the spectator is a lesson in psychology one
could learn much from." ...Pete Biro
"Phil's wonderfully edgy showmanship is very fun to watch.
Because of the psychological push and shove between the performer and his mark,
it plays for a bigger room than most routines can. It is by far one of the most
different and original presentations I have seen." ...Whit Haydn, School
for Scoundrels
Running time: Approximately 65 minutes.
