WHAT'S NEW
PREQUEL/SEQUEL by ALLAN ACKERMAN
Four of the most incredible card effects you've ever seen! Start clean, end clean - and in between is pure MAGIC!
Allan Ackerman is one of the world's foremost experts at sleight-of-hand magic and gambling moves with playing cards. On this amazing DVD you will be treated to four of the most incredible card routines ever created - absolute stunners that simply defy explanation. Normally, a brother magician might exclaim, "You're using gaffed cards!" To which you reply, "Go ahead, take a look!" Examine to their heart's content and they will find nothing. That's because Allan has devised extremely devious and elegant methods for switching in and switching out the gaffs, leaving no trace of their existence! Prequel/Sequel is a truly unique DVD experience! Allan also teaches numerous invaluable sleights and moves.
PREQUEL/SEQUEL: Allan's method for the classic MacDonald's Aces routine. Not only does he have beautiful handlings for each vanishing phase, but he also has devised a diabolical and magical way of beginning and ending clean, all in the guise of a magical effect! Unbelievable!
A & D SANDWICH: Two mates are removed from the deck, say the red fives. A spectator now thinks of any card in the deck. The face-up red fives are now touched to the top of the deck and a face-down card magically appears between them. It is the thought-of card! Stunning!
LAS VEGAS THREE-CARD MONTE: This is Allan's handling for the gaffed Three-Card Monte, made popular by Michael Skinner, Mike Rogers, Eddie Taytelbaum and many others. Not only has Allan devised a method that lets you start and end clean, but he has now added a new phase wherein the cards magically change places while held in a spectator's hand! You have to see it to believe it! Not only that, it's easy to do!
FINALLY REASSEMBLED: This is Allan's incredible solution to the Slow-Motion Ace Assembly - supercharged! As with the other routines on this DVD, the gaffs are secretly rung in and out in the context of an effect. The climax is a surprise reverse assembly culminating with a production of the aces from the deck and the pockets! Incredible!
Includes Special Cards printed by the U.S. Playing Card Company.

This is an ingenious device for any mentalist. You show a beautiful wooden box content of dices, pencil, papers and a deck of card. Explaining that you had a premonition earlier in the day, ask the volunteer to simply think of any of the fifty-two cards. It is a completely free choice. She can think of any card. Explain that you removed one and only one card from the deck as a prediction. Without adding or taking away any cards, the deck is removed from its case by the spectator. The spectator herself counts the cards and notes that there only fifty-one. What is more amazing is that her freely thought-of card is missing.
Come complete with anything you need to perform this miracle!

Featuring two exclusive presentations by James Biss.
"Zenerbocker" - Five audience members are chosen and asked to choose any numbered seat that they feel drawn towards. The magician hands out five envelopes to be shuffled by a participant and then are handed out. The envelopes are opened and remembered. The cards are passed down and then reshuffled before being handed back to the magician. An audience member is chosen to associate one of the cards with a seated participant and the seated participant is given the card. With each psychic connection, the magician hands out the rest of the cards one by one to the seated participants. The cards are then revealed by the seated members as the cards that they remembered previously. Remarkable! But that's not all, the magician asks the participants to look into the numbered envelope on their seats that they felt drawn towards. The cards in the envelope matches the cards in the participants' hands. Incredible!
