STACK OF QUARTERS AND COPPER/SILVER COIN by MULTIPLE ARTISTS
This is the very best routines with two of coin magic's most ingenious gimmicks.
If you could have one set of magic DVDs, this would be it! This benchmark collection features just about all of magic’s most enduring and classic effects and routines. It's a fabulous compendium with many of the top masters in the world of magic teaching their handlings and routines for some of magic's classics. Linking rings, sponge balls, metal bending, cups and balls, thumb tips, Zombie, color-changing knives, and many, many more topics are all gathered in this one terrific DVD reference set. Each volume covers a specific subject and features new, old, and sometimes rare footage by some of the top video producers in magic.
You'll find the Cap and Pence and Copper/Silver coins in some of the earliest books in magic's literature, including The Discoverie of Witchcraft and Hocus Pocus Jr. That they’ve been prominently represented in the repertoires of magicians ever since is a testament to how potentially strong the magic created with them can be.
On this volume, three modern masters demonstrate and teach varying and powerful uses for the Stack of Quarters and Copper/Silver gimmicks. David Roth dispenses with the leather cone for the classic Cap and Pence presentation, using a rolled-up dollar bill to produce a miracle using a spectator’s hand and some borrowed quarters. Johnny Thompson takes the same effect and adds some of Nate Leipzig’s touches to increase its impact. David Roth demonstrates and teaches the classic Copper/Silver transposition and then he and Johnny Thompson each take on Presto Chango, where two coins repeatedly turn from copper to silver at the magician's will. Finally, Michael Close rounds out the set with his version of the Copper/Silver Transposition with some fine touches that will make your spectator believe that coins really are passing right through their hand.
If you've never used a Stack of Quarters or a Copper/Silver coin, you're missing out on magic that has stood the test of time. However, now, with the help of these three world-class performers, you, too, can perform these remarkable miracles of coin magic.

Warp One is a completely re-wired version of Roy Walton's classic Card Warp. What is the big news? David removes the cover card and performs the entire illusion in full view!
Warp One uses a single card from a normal deck... held out at the very tips of your fingers.
You fold the card in half then simply wave your fingers over the card, and the single card visibly turns inside out: First half the card, then the other half (both sides are shown), then the card turns completely inside out and then back to half and half.
Each stunning visual change happens with a single normal card held at the tips of your fingers!
You end with the classic Roy Walton ending by tearing the warped card in half and handing out the pieces for examination.
David Ren Jenkins' Warp One is a visual treat. The moves are completely invisible. The handling is a downright joy to perform.
All you need is a single card and your bare fingers to permanently warp your audience's reality.
This includes David's special handling for restoring the card.
THE FINGERS MAKE NO MOVEMENTS OTHER THAN A GENTLE WAVING ACTION!

J. C. WAGNER LECTURE by J. C. WAGNER
At last, a live lecture from
Legendary close-up bar magician J. C. Wagner!
On this DVD you are going to learn some fantastic card magic...
STAND-UP TRIUMPH is the ideal WALKAROUND version of this effect, and will fool magicians as well as laymen. After a card is freely chosen, the deck is mixed face up and face down. With a click of the fingers, the cards are all shown to be facing one way with the exception of the chosen card! JUST BEFORE THE CLIMAX, THE CARDS ARE SPREAD TO SHOW THE FACEUP/FACE DOWN MIX!! Ordinary cards, impromptu, NO TABLE REQUIRED!
THE LIE DETECTOR is J.C. Wagner’s highly entertaining take on the classic Martin Gardner effect.
ASSEMBLY - WITH A DIFFERENCE is a slow motion Ace assembly that will fool the most knowledgeable magician. This routine features a full explanation of a most valuable move… the GAMBLER’S COP.
FACTORY MISPRINTS is a packet printing effect that many magicians are hailing as the best of its genre! Four cards are cleanly shown to be blank, and one at a time, faces and backs appear on each card. The magician next performs an ultra clean version of Dr. DALEY’S LAST TRICK, in which two of the cards transpose with the others! Finally, all the faces and backs melt away, leaving four blank cards once again!
ROYAL DETECTIVES is a highly visual, dynamic routine where a card disappears from between two red Kings, only to re-appear reversed in the centre of the deck...TRAPPED BETWEEN THE OTHER TWO KINGS! What is so special about this routine is that J.C. Wagner explains three principles that every card magician will want to learn and add to his repertoire...THE VERNON TRANSFER, The LARRY JENNING’S FLOP MOVE, and PAUL HARRIS’S COUNT SUBTLETY.
As if all this wasn’t enough, there is a full performance of Wagner’s handling of SPONGE RABBITS. Since Wagner claims that this effect goes down better than any other trick in his repertoire, this should more than encourage you to learn it and add it to your act without delay!
SPECIAL BONUS!!!
As an extra bonus, J. C. Wagner includes a FULL EXPLANATION of the modern classic CARD UNDER GLASS complete with all the nuances, history and tips. This section alone is worth the price of the video!
Also included is a mini-lecture on OUTS AND ESTIMATION in regard to J. C. Wagner’s THINK OF A CARD in which any spectator merely THINKS of a card and the performer locates it!! This is definitely a video to satisfy the commercial entertainer AND the hardcore card magician.
