The Genii Forum

There is a movie in which an an American or Canadian serviceman falls in love with a British woman during WW2. It was made in the 50's I think. The actor rolls what I believe is an English penny over his knuckles. I must have seen the movie fifty years ago, and can remember exactly what the actor l...

Not to complicate your decision but if you don't already have it, the Geoff Latta book is worth considering.

Steve, just sent you a PM

Mike, did Gambit 1 & 2 ever sell? I'll take them if not.

Thank you Bill! Exactly what I was looking for!

In the September 2015 Genii in the Magicana video supplement, Andi Gladwyn recommends seeking out the review of JK Hartmans Card Craft by Michael Weber from Magic mag. in that there is currently no searchable index? I'm hoping that someone could point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

Looking to buy a set of Charlie Miller cups once offered by Magic Inc.

Thanks,

Ray Goulet's shop is great, Diamonds Magic is worth a visit as well. It's a 15 to 20 minute drive north of the city, Eddie Gardner is a very nice guy. He had plenty of Tally Ho's in stock on my last visit. If going on a Saturday call ahead to make sure he's open. Diamonds Magic 515 Lowell Street #4 ...

Does anyone know if a Penumbra 12 is in the works? My subscription was up with number 11.

Thanks,

Thanks Tim! You're right "It really is weird how things like this happen". Appreciate your taking the time to answer.

Hi Tim, My friends and I saw this clip at MAGIC Live this past week. To say we were surprised to see the business card from one of our club members in RI would be an understatement. ("Mr. Tricky" Joe Santanas card appears at 2:15 into the video). To be honest it was a strange moment for us...

Thanks Richard,

I guess I'm being overzealous. I'm spoiled as I usually get my issue within 2 to 3 days after you announce the shipping date. I'll be patient.

Wish I could see it. No November issue here in North Smithfield RI as of yet. Should I give it another day or two?

I have been doing this routine for a long time. I learned it from Richards description in the book. Never has anyone (not even magicians) questioned the number of cards or how many faces versus backs are seen. My feeling is that there is so much more going on here that it's not even thought about. R...

Richard, is this what you're referring to as "Punch Embroidery Thread"? <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://cgi.ebay.com/Punch-Embroidery-Thread-33-Spools_W0QQitemZ260208060097QQihZ016QQcategoryZ28144QQcmdZViewItem">http://cgi.ebay.com/Punch-Embroidery-Th ... dZViewItem</a><!-- m --...

Contact "Haines House of Cards" they made one for me several years ago. I got to choose the type and color of the deck as well as the duplicate card.

Guess you didn't see it? :eek:

Anyone else happen to see Ricky Jay on the Kennedy Center Honors last night? I wish I had TIVO'd this program. Mr. Jay appeared in a wonderful segment honoring Steve Martin. I'm not sure but the routine he performed is remaniscent of somthing from the Cliff Green's book "Professional Card Magic...

Thanks Richard and John! Great information, I appreciate the feedback.

In the introducton to "Korem Without Limits" The author mentions his "7 Signed Cards To Pocket" effect and Marlo's appreciation of same. Interestingly this item is not in the book and my searching has come up dry. Anyone know if this was ever published? If so I'd appreciate the d...

I have many of the HBO magic moment segments as well. If memory serves Bob did the following:

- Bottle Production
- Knife Through Coat
- Transpo Tumbler
