Almost 10 years ago, J.K. Harman's momentous classic Card Craft was published. It was the largest book ever devoted solely to card magic. Its sequel, After Craft, was published to great acclaim in 1995. But the best of them all is Trickery Treats, the latest 240-page oversized hardcover full of miraculous card magic which is “Card Craft Continued”. There are over 61 tricks, new classic items, illustrated with over 650 drawings by well-known artist Joseph K. Schmidt. The highlight is "A Process of Elimination," the ultimate in equivoque: it brings you from 52 possibilities down to one card with absolutely no skill. It is completely automatic and you don't even handle the cards. A separately-printed gimmicked script comes with each copy of Trickery Treats. 240 pages. Hardbound.
