Inhaltsangabe

Discover the secrets of classic coin magic — from astonishing vanishes and impossible penetrations to clever tricks you can perform with ordinary coins.

First published in 1926, Will Blyth's Money Magic is a wonderfully practical collection of more than 25 entertaining tricks, puzzles and magical effects with coins.

The book is divided into three sections, taking you from prepared effects using special coins or simple apparatus, through tricks requiring no special coins or apparatus, to impromptu money tricks and amusements ideal for informal performances.

Make coins mysteriously travel from place to place. Float a coin on water. Make a borrowed, marked penny vanish from a matchbox and appear inside a potato. Perform impossible penetrations, discoveries, transpositions, puzzles and seemingly inexplicable feats with everyday money.

But Money Magic teaches more than secrets. Blyth explains the importance of misdirection, presentation, practice, patter and showmanship, with detailed instructions and suggested patter to help transform a clever method into an entertaining performance.

Inside you'll discover:

• Coin magic with special coins and simple apparatus
• Tricks using ordinary coins with no special apparatus
• Impromptu tricks, puzzles and amusements
• Detailed explanations and performance advice
• Suggested patter and presentation
• 82 original instructional diagrams
