Advanced Magic by Joe Ovette

Description: Advanced Magic by Joe Ovette Here's a book containing several very fine magical, mental and spirit effects, as you've come to expect from this stage magician and mentalist. Now back in print and better than ever! The ingenious card tricks, novel illusions, and sage advice make this updated edition a great investment for the club, platform or stage conjuror. Divided into six chapters, each is devoted to a different segment of magic and its working. The "Dove of Peace" effect alone would sell for twenty dollars, if purchased from a dealer. Likewise, the author reveals his "Matter of Force Deck," which was formerly sold as a separate dealer item. The magical performer who has a home workshop (or knows someone who does) will certainly want to build and use one of the five described side tables for his act. Also included are several amusing anecdotes, which are Ovette's way of providing pearls of wisdom without boring the reader.
