Since 2005, this routine has been requested at Aaron's seminars more than any other. For serious card students, this routine stands a masterwork in sleight of hand construction. Really a series of exciting ideas and approaches, the effect is simplicity itself: The four Aces rise to the top of the deck. But the appearance, handling and timing employed make it a favorite of hardcore card men.

Bonus items:

  • The Impossible Transformation – Aaron's new handling of his highly regarded Revolution Color Change. You'll place a card face-up in the pack and leave it out-jogged. Then, with a wave of your hand, the card visibly changes. The spectator can remove the card herself — it's clean!
  • The New Deck James — This trick is self-working and it fools everyone! It allows you to perform a classic Stewart James effect in a practical, easy way. Aaron uses this all the time.

     The Svengali deck is an ingenious magic deck of cards and with this book you can learn over 110 amazing tricks & routines. This book was written and edited by experienced magic teachers and demonstrators.

     Here are just a few of the 110 tricks YOU can learn from this book: Show a “normal” deck and then change ALL of the cards into the spectator’s chosen card.

  • Seal a card in an envelope and then have the spectator choose any card from the deck… When they open the envelope, the cards match!
  • Have your spectator choose a card and then place it back into the deck. They then slip a knife into the side of the deck and amazingly, the knife is exactly a their chosen card.
  • The spectator’s selected card vanishes from the deck and reappears in your wallet or pocket.

YOU MUST HAVE A SVENGALI DECK TO PERFORM THESE TRICKS!

Fism 2003 explains the double color change everyone’s been asking about from Lee Asher and Paul Wilson’s Hit the Road DVD this year (No, there weren’t gaffed cards!), and about ten other explorations in mind splitting card magic. The FISM 2003 manuscript is 48 pages of serious card work that will fool your soberest audience.

FISM was the wildest, most incredible magic convention I have ever seen. I spent the convention watching, and getting fooled by the most incredible array of magicians I’ve ever imagined. And I spent the rest of the time doing card tricks from The Paper Engine for people. I love helping people soften their card work – it helps them to really affect people with their magic. - Aaron Fisher

When it comes to charming an audience with magic, bonhomie and good humor, I've seen few who could equal, and none surpass, Paul West. - Stephen Minch


Brother Paul's lecture notes give you a pretty close to surefire way to walk into any bar or small pub and do a show with the management's permission... - His rope routine is to die for as well for a street worker. The CD-ROM package is a great deal. Tell him I sent you. - Danny Hustle

Aaron Fisher's "Lost Studio Sessions"

Material originally slated for Aaron's 1997 debut lecture manuscript, the Lost Studio Session's features two of Aaron's favorite commercial routines.

Soul mates: God and the Devil play head to head poker. The Stakes? Your audiences Soul! This self working effect based on Daryl's "Untouched" is a favorite will surely be a favorite.

Casting Doubt: Aaron Started with one of the greatest tricks of the Century, Dan Harlan's award winning Cardtoon, and ended up with a mind altering new effect. The magician predicts any movie actor named by the spectator. This is a stunner, and without a single move.
