The Only Magic Book Anyone Needs/The Magic Book by Harry Lorayne (1977) - Review
Просмотров 22010 месяцев назад
Seriously, this is really the only work on magic for the general public that I can recommend to people. The other things are good if you are ready to commit to diving into the world of magic, but for everyone else who just wants to be able to do something other than the 21 card trick, this is what they should look for.

Ultimate Easy Magic Course by Vanishing Inc.- Review?
Просмотров 166Год назад
I don't know if I can call this a review because I don't talk about the individual tricks. If I did, that would expose the material which goes against my promise in the video to not make a list that you can look up later and if that public list existed then this project is worthless. This is not a bad product, it's just hard for me to recommend because I know this basic information, and more, i...
Magic In A Box - Quick Look (Hobby Lobby)
Просмотров 440Год назад
Yeah, this set looks like a magic set and that's about all it's good for. Again, the box is nice and you can put whatever magic tricks you want in it and leave it around your house for visitors to ask what's inside it. This gives you a presentational hook for whatever it is you're about to do.

Ellusionist: How to Be a Magician Kit-2023 Review
Просмотров 1,2 тыс.Год назад
Well I suspect this review is not going to make a lot of people happy if they already spent money on this. To them I will say that you currently own a collectable piece of magic history as this kit captures an excitement for magic that existed before Covid. If this was your first introduction to magic, it is not a bad introduction. There is no one right way to learn to start, but I'm experiment...
Discontinued Costco Marvin's Magic Set: Parents' Guide (2023 set is the same-See Description)
Просмотров 14 тыс.Год назад
Hello parents, I hope you found this video helpful. Let me know if you have any questions in the comments section. (9/28/23) Note: it has come to my attention that this set is once again being sold at Costco this holiday season. It seems Marvin’s Magic may have even seen this video because now the box is more compact while keeping the same props and they even included some thread and wax to mak...

    Thanks. Just bought this Fantasma set as a gift for my 5 year old son who loves his Marvin set and there's very little overlap. I will check the contents carefully and probably swap the card deck before giving it to him. I will need to buy a stuffed white rabbit like the one on the box or he will be very disappointed!

    I received a copy of this book as my Christmas present in 1978, as a 14yo starting out in Magic. Now, after a lifetime working professionally in England, I can say (in complete honesty) that this is the greatest book of Close-up Magic that has ever been written - and believe me, I've read many, many books to draw that comparison. It focuses upon Magic with everyday items - but these are 'real world workers', not childish stunts. The Card Magic section covers the only sleights that you will ever need, whilst the effects themselves are incredibly strong. The Coin Magic section covers all that you need to know, with literally every Coin Magic 'plot' explained in superb detail. Don't overlook the sections on 'Numbers' - watch (on youtube) Harry fry an audience with his Magic Square and rapid Number calculations. As well as this, every classic element of Close-up Magic and Mentalism is covered within it's pages, with borrowed, ungimmicked items. Throughout the book, NOTHING is knuckle-busting, nor indeed unachieveable. There are no pipe-dreams - this is a collection of strong, audience-tested material. Harry's writing style is now legendary within our Art - nothing is vague, no detail overlooked. Learn the contents of 'The Magic Book' and you will have enough material to work professionally as a Close-up Magician - it truly is that good. Unresevedly recommended!

    Is there a set you recommend for an 11 yr old?

    • @cjrmystic
      @cjrmystic 10 месяцев назад

      After considering your question for a day, I suggest 2 options. Option 1 (which I recommend more): The set shown in the video is fine. If you want better versions of some of the props, I’ve added links to find them in the description of the video. Option 2: “Magic for Everyone”, shown in this video below, along with the supplementary material I suggest in the description. ruclips.net/video/_29-0zgJo0k/видео.htmlfeature=shared When I uploaded the Marvin’s Magic set video a year ago, I had an idea of resources that would work for anyone over 10, but those things have, over the span of a year, become unavailable or were not as good as I thought. I’m starting to think this Costco set should universally be considered “square one” because there are so many classic concepts/tricks explained that will come up again later if one learns more magic tricks even if not everything meets my standards. It’s also a low storage commitment because it’s so small, which is a plus.

    good video, I bought them to sell. I have been performing for over 30 years and I think this is a great set for the price. And as far as the props, they are kind of THEY ARE WHAT YOU MAKE THEM. Sponge balls and a svengali deck can be a nice little act, and of course a good cups and balls routine has kept people working for decades. Thanks for the review
