Lee Asher's Excellent booklet of magic!

The Third Fastest Card Trick in the World

A card is selected, signed, and returned to the deck. In a split second, the magician spreads the deck and states he has found the card. But, it is not. After three failed attempts, the wrong selections turn into the right one. It is a very simple entertaining routine that even a child can perform.

Losing Control

A card is touched, shown, and placed very fairly back into the middle of the deck. With a snap of the fingers, it is now on top of the deck. This control is also taught visually on the LOSING CONTROL CD-Rom.

Slap that Ace

The spectator cuts four packets trying to find the four aces. The attempt fails but the magician takes the four cards and slaps them onto the deck. Magically, they change into the four aces. This routine takes advantage of a great Edward Marlo move that is rarely used.

Fan-See Meeting both of you here

Two cards are thought of from the fanned deck. Under impossible conditions, the magician divines both of the thought of selections. This will fool your audience terribly. You will be pleased with how easy this is.

Not Impressive

One of the greatest full deck separations where the spectator separates the pack with ONE shuffle. This routine uses the technique Pulp Friction and you must have the Pulp Friction booklet in order to understand it. This routine is a SILENT KILLER!! This routine is Lee's favorite of all time!!
