The Genii Forum

MitchSchneiter

Arrived moments ago. It's Big!

MitchSchneiter

1 October and the Genii has landed in West Linn Oregon. Yay!

MitchSchneiter

And still no Genii in West Linn.

MitchSchneiter

No problem Richard. Usually it's here soon after you announce it has been mailed. Maybe tomorrow...

MitchSchneiter

Tuesday mail has come but still no Genii in West Linn. Magic magazine arrived yesterday. I assume the Postman must still be reading the Genii.

MitchSchneiter

Saturday mail was just delivered and still no Genii. Interesting. I live in West Linn, Oregon and probably live within 20 miles of George Olson. He received his copy on Tuesday.

MitchSchneiter

Revelation just arrived. Wow...

MitchSchneiter

409 pages in Volume one.

MitchSchneiter

The book arrived about an hour ago here in Oregon. In just glancing through it I've already found some clever items that I want to start working on. The Paul Fox card in wallet idea is great. I certainly don't regret buying this or the first volume.

Thanks for the heads up! Just got my #6 copy reserved.

Any chance that Dr.Sawa's upcoming release of 4 DVDs of new coin material might just be the start of much more of his work being released? I'm sure he could easily fill many more 4 DVD sets. And it would sure be great to finally see some of the early stuff that he held back.

The books arrived today. They are in great condition, they were well wrapped, and delivery was fast! Thanks Eric for some very good books. Nice doing business with you.

MitchSchneiter

Eric - e-mailed you for Body Magic and the Constant Fooling 1 and 2.

Frank paypal payment has been sent for the Garcia book. Thanks. Good prices on Good books!

MitchSchneiter

Frank -
My mistake, please cancel the Ramsay book. I am interested in the Garcia book though.
Thanks,
Mitch

MitchSchneiter

Frank -
I'll take the Frank Garcia Close Up Magic as well as the Ramsay Finale.

I wish I hadn't missed out on the book and cards way back when. Any chance of a reprint(sans cards of course)?

As a kid growing up in the Philippines I saw Johnny Aladdin perform in 1971. I also got to meet him and have him help me with my magic as my folks contacted him and invited him to our home. He was very nice and encouraging to a boy interested in magic. His signed photo is hanging in my home magic ba...

The June issue just arrived moments ago. The top of the bag was already ripped open 6 or more inches. The top of the magazine has a few wrinkled/worn spots. Besides the magazine the bag also contained the envelope but no brochure. I'm sure the contents of the magazine are just fine though.

Charles - I graduated from the old TAS campus. My sister's kids are all attending TAS now. I'll have to return to Taiwan again sometime, it's been too long.

MitchSchneiter

Charles - Very nice. There are certainly some interesting effects by Japanese magicians. It would be nice to see more printed in English.
By the way, I notice you are posting from Taiwan. I graduated from TAS (quite a while ago). My sister and her family still live there.

Last night I took my folks to see Reeds's dinner show at the Voleur in Portland. It was my first time to see him perform also. What a fun evening it was for both my parents and me. His show was mystifying and entertaining and was certainly enjoyed by the entire audience. He definitely connects with ...

The coins look great Todd. I will be picking up some of these for sure.

MitchSchneiter

George -
I just got mine in todays mail and I'm in West Linn, Oregon. Your copy should be there shortly.

Dan -
I'll take the Ramsay book and England's Paradox.

MitchSchneiter

It just arrived at my door in West Linn, Oregon.

MitchSchneiter

The book arrived today, well packed and in good shape. Looking forward to reading it tonight. Thank you.

MitchSchneiter

Emailed you.

Okay, I should have been patient as it arrived the very next day. I have only been able to glance through it but know already it was worth the wait. This is a great book.

All knives are still prohibited in carry-on. The recent TSA prohibited item change allowed for small scissors and tools in carry-on.

I bought the book when it came out and have yearned for the subsequent volumes to come out ever since. Sawa's clever effects and plots are a joy and an inspiration to think outside the norm. Richard, please publish a follow-up volume...or two!

If you can't find the Weber case you might check out Frank Starsini's site at <a class="postlink" href="http://www.theambitiouscard.com/index.cfm">http://www.theambitiouscard.com/index.cfm</a> He has two different leather cases for knives. One just for transport and one a case to...

I was fortunate to pick up a Cerberus set from Todd back in September (it is a killer coin gaff!) and Dave Neigbors' Cerberus DVD containing multiple effects with different applications (International 3 Fly, Coins through table, matrix, etc.). If you're into coin work and clever gaffs, this is a mus...

How about Vernon's Four Ace Sand Trick?

Just do a quick google search and you will find plenty of pages of information and sources.

MitchSchneiter

I just saw one available on Ron Allesi's site for $175.

MitchSchneiter

The book is 108 pages and was edited by Ellison Poland.

It seems to me I saw him long ago on a different TV show performing the Tricky Bottles. I may be wrong but I think at the end of the effect he exposed the gaff for a cheap laugh. Also, I think that's where I first heard the line, "I'd rather have this bottle in front of me than a frontal lobota...
