Guy Hollingworth's Inflation

[David Acer]

I'm sorry there isn't a video clip of Guy Hollingworth performing his astonishing contribution to this month's Magicana ("Inflation"). It's an eye-popping, ground-breaking, mind-altering coin routine that will knock your socks off, then fold them neatly and put them in your laundry hamper.

I've been playing around with this to some degree. It's a good routine, particularly useful in "impromptu" situations, as it starts with normal coins, but quickly progresses to obvious preparation by the magician. The problem is, for impromptu situations, I probably won't be wearing a jacket (necessary for some of the ditches) - not to say the routine can't be tweeked to accommadate the lack of a jacket. I like the idea of the primary sleight in this routine. It seems practical and efficient. It's taking some time, however, to make it look natural . . . an investment of serious practice time may be necessary.

Guy doesn't do a lot of easy stuff. :)

Is the inflation here better than in complete works of Derek Dingle?

[Richard Kaufman]

Completely different routine.

I'm subscribing today but am not sure I'll get that particular issue. Which issue is it in case I need to order it as a single copy?

Thanks,
Tony
