Lesson 95
Card Art 12
Playing card magic is certainly the most extensive area of magic. A deck of cards is the most versatile prop imaginable, and the number of manipulations, effects, and routines that can be performed with them is enormous, with new ones being added every day. With a deck of cards in your pocket, you can keep any audience thoroughly entertained for a long time.
In this final lesson on card tricks in the Tarbell Course, you'll learn fifteen tricks. Nine are described in detail in the main section, and six more are described in brief illustrated descriptions in the appendix. These range from Stanley Collins' "Wandering Aces" to various card risers and a sophisticated deck exchange, the "Phantom Card" and Karl Germain's "Two-Card Blitz."
The tricks are impressive due to their simple methods; you should now be able to master all of the few required moves, and any necessary preparations can be carried out without any problems.
As Harlan Tarbell has often pointed out, in addition to the technical mastery of the tricks, “selling” is always a key component of success.
