Tarbell Course in Magic - Volume 056 - Tricks with Cloths 6

The basics of magic

Tricks with cloths 6
Lesson 56

For this lesson, Harlan Tarbell has compiled some exceptionally effective tricks, some of which have now become classics. "20th-Century Silks"—silk scarves of the 20th century—are a popular trade trick. In addition to a version with unprepared scarves, another one by the famous magician Al Baker, which he had in his program for years, is presented. Immediately following, a chapter is devoted to Al Baker's "Sympathetic Silks," his "Solidarity" scarves.

Another highlight is the cloth that quickly penetrates a chair back, a broom handle or microphone stand – and does so back and forth several times.

You'll also learn about Ottokar Fischer's "Strings of Fantasies," an ingenious folding technique for Blendo scarves, a lightning-fast production of one to three scarves from nothing, and an astonishing multiplication of one scarf into a whopping eight scarves—and no one knows where the other seven came from...

Anyone interested in art pieces with these colorful textiles will not be able to avoid studying this lesson in detail.
