WGM - Torn and Restored Newspaper WGM - Torn and Restored Newspaper One of magic's most enduring effects has always been the Torn and Restored Newspaper, and for good reason.

WGM - Ring Flight WGM - Ring Flight Though conjuring effects with finger rings have been part of the conjuring literature for quite some time, it was British magician/mentalist Al Koran who first conceived of the notion of a borrowed finger ring vanishing and reappearing on one of the hooks of a key case.

WGM - Anniversary Waltz WGM - Anniversary Waltz Michael Ammar once wrote that one of the principles key to making a magic effect memorable to an audience is to alter an object magically and then give it away in its altered state. A souvenir of this kind will be treasured forever and there's been perhaps no better example of this kind of effect than one in which two playing cards, signed by the spectators, are magically.. 2016. 11. 7.
WGM - Card To Wallet WGM - Card To Wallet The card-to-impossible-place plot is almost as old as card conjuring itself with the earliest ancestor of the trick we now call the Card To Wallet appearing as "The Card in the Pocketbook" in early magic literature.

Dice used as conjuring props is of decidedly more recent vintage with one of the earliest records being Hofzinser who used mispotted dice to force a number as early as 1842. However, the allure of these simple six-sided cubes have not escaped t.. 2016. 11. 7.
