David Stone is an extremely talented young magician from France. Because of his unique talents and innovative techniques, he has gained worldwide attention.

Paul Wilson is one of the most brilliant magical minds ever to come from Scotland. His magic is incredible and well thought out. He shares his amazing magic with you step-by-step on Volumes 16, 17 and 18.

Tony Hassini, yours truly, is on Volume 24 with the One-Man Mental Act. I share with you an incredible mental act. Let me give you some examples of what I will be teaching you.

How’s this for starters? Show 16 photographs to the audience. Members of the audience mentally select any of the photographs. The mentalist, with 100% accuracy, tells each person which photograph he/she selected. My friends, this one trick alone is worth the price of the entire set.

I don’t want to sound like I’m blowing my own horn, but here’s another one. A member of the audience freely selects an ESP card from an ESP deck. Immediately afterwards, the image of the ESP card is imprinted in the spectator’s palm.

Here’s another one. The mentalist shows several pages of newspapers, as well as a prediction in a sealed envelope. The envelope is in full view. The spectator takes a sharp needle and sticks it through anywhere on the newspaper. The word or sentence next to the needle is found on the prediction in the sealed envelope.

Shall I go on? How about this one? The spectator shuffles four ESP cards. The mentalist shuffles four matching ESP cards. One at a time, the spectator freely places his ESP cards next to the mentalist’s ESP cards. Lo and behold, they perfectly match, four out of four. This trick is 100% accurate, works every time, and never fails. This is a reputation-maker.

And there’s still more. Don’t miss out on my One-Man Mental Act on Volume 24.

How many restaurant magicians do we know that has a 3-year contract with a five-star restaurant in a Hilton Hotel? Well, I can tell you that John Caluwaert may be the only one with such credentials. On volumes 31 and 32, John graciously shares with you some of the best restaurant magic in two complete acts. He shares with you how to approach a table, how to handle the clientele, and how to get the customers to come back again and again.
