The Encyclopedia of Card Tricks (Hardback)

Product detailed description

Why name a book, The Encyclopedia of Card Tricks? Because it is a giant collection of over 600 card tricks! It's now available in this beautiful hardcover edition.

Jean Hugard took Glenn G. Gravatt's Encyclopedia of Self-working Card Tricks and The Second Encyclopedia of Card Tricks, rewrote them, added more routines, and left out routines using difficult sleight of hand. And the result is The Encyclopedia of Card Tricks.

It is a collection of easy card tricks that don't require a high skill level. It tackles many areas of card magic, including the Key Card principle, spelling effects, impromptu tricks, and magic with trick cards and decks.

The book includes chapters about using a double-back card, a double-face card, short cards, and trick deck magic, which plays a huge role.

You will learn tricks with the Svengali deck, Stripper deck, Mene-Tekel deck, and other types of trick decks.

The book is an excellent resource for card tricks. Beginners will be appalled by the volume of magic explained. Experienced magicians will appreciate it as a fantastic source of inspiration.
