Aren't these all old VHS releases simply now being re-released as DVDs?

They're both listed as being A-1 videos on Meir Yedid's website, and I didn't think A-1 was still in business.

Another with Allan Ackerman: Classic Ackerman.

Ad:
"Allan Ackerman is an expert magician with a deck of cards and on this DVD he performs and teaches what he considers his classic routines. These are Allen's most cherished effects that he regularly uses to impress magicians and laypeople.

Routines:

Ten Card Poker [ Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9OsxP2Whic ]
Bottom-Up Zarrow
Back To Hierophant
Mayhew Poker Again
Cards General
Finally Matched
Close Encounter
Ungaffed Ted
Ten Card Trick
One Kiss
CR Move
Cipher
and
Return To Ishtar (coins)"

http://www.mymagic.com/dvd/dvd-ackerman.htm

After watching this dvd I can tell you this is a great card dvd. Several routines is truly amazing. Ungaffed Ted, fooled me badly. And, Ten Card Poker was extremely strong, the best I have seen!
This effect is a winner many times, SURE.
Most effects looked very good.
I need to watch it again, so many goodies on one dvd.
I recommend it very much!

Dont miss the effect Back To Hierophant, superb card magic!

The Bottum-Up Zarrow False Shuffle is very convincing and in-the-hands, sure. Even very close it will look great.
I will add this false shuffle as a true killing card weapon!
Killer card magic is fun, hehe.

Most of the effect can be found in this lecture note:
Classic Handlings by Allan Ackerman
Notes from 1999
These notes contain a dozen moves and routines.
