In the antithesis to our instant download culture he is trying to bring back that monthly anticipation of getting a physical thing in the mail and taking time to study the written word.\r\nGo to his site The Mag to support the venture, there are only 300 issues printed every month and the site will go live on the first of every month to snag your copy, or grab a subscription.Continue reading →Monday, September 15, 2025\r\n            Chris Rawlins and Brad Hodgins are publishing a new monthly ’trick-in-the-post’ release. It’s always great to have that anticipation of getting something in the mail, and the first volume is six issues released on the first of the month.\r\nCardGames Store\r\nYou can sign up to be reminded at the link above.\r\nI have received issue 1 and can’t say too much as the secret/hook is what you are getting, but it is based off an old method for ACAAN which is super practical and commerical and is already my favourite method for the plot, so I was super happy with this version, as it takes it into a ‘why has no one else thought of this’ territory.Continue reading →Wednesday, August 13, 2025\r\n            Theodore (Ted) Annemann arguably one of the most important names in mentalism, produced a magazine called The Jinx between 1934 and 1941. The magazine has been called one of the greatest magic magazines ever published. It contains a wealth of magic and mentalism.\r\nBeing published back in the 30’s meant none of the desktop publishing facilities we have these days. And therefore the facsimile reprints are often hard to read.Continue reading →Monday, January 22, 2024\r\n            Kaleb first came to my attention through his debut release via Bazz at Black Cat Magic, an unknown name, releasing a book-test. Of course being somewhat of a book-test devotee I was curious to see what Kaleb brought to the party. The book was based on The Alchemist novel, and it would go on to cement Kaleb’s place in the mentalism community, and make him one of very few people I will buy products from, sight unseen!Continue reading →Friday, July 31, 2020\r\n            Today is my Birthday and also the 20 year Anniversary of this blog which was started on 31st July 2000. I believe I was possibly one of the first magic blogs on the internet, given that the term 'weblog' was coined in 1997 and the term blog in 1999. It is fun to look back over 20 years of archives and see what was around back then, I was collecting links not just for magic, but juggling, origami, circus and other allied arts.Continue reading →Friday, June 12, 2020\r\n            Jamie has released a system of performing mind reading over Zoom/Skype that is based on his The Tracker booklet. I'm not sure why this wasn't mentioned in the Penguin advert, but to me that would be a strength to highlight this as I really liked his Tracker principle when I bought the booklet a while back.\r\nWhat Jamie brings to this download is a way of doing Tracker in virtual environments.Continue reading →Friday, June 12, 2020\r\n            The Art of An Illusionist Have you ever wondered about the meaning of an illusionist? The word is used to describe a person who performs stage magic to entertain audiences. Many of us have witnessed them perform by making an object levitate, make things disappear and reappear, cut someone in half, turn an apple into a bird, or making a handkerchief disappear. We enjoy magic shows like The Carbonaro Effect and watched movies such as The illusionist.Continue reading →Thursday, June 14, 2018\r\n            Ben was kind enough to provide me with a free review copy of his latest download. In the present days of magic publishing - one-trick-downloads and unfinished ideas being published as highly priced e-books - it is really nice to see that Ben has published an over two-hour video download containing 5 solid pieces of magic, with additional thoughts and routines. The underlying theme, as the title suggests, is a set of 5 effects that use simple gimmicks.Continue reading →Saturday, March 5, 2016\r\n            Ryan has managed to invoke a sense of nostalgia in me with this publication. In the days of one trick downloads, and ebooks, that you can purchase instantly, with nothing more than your Paypal password, it feels good to hold a physical product in your hand. Something that you know will contain good solid commercial magic, and not a heavily edited trailer in sight. In releasing this publication I believe Ryan hoped to capture the spirit of the magazines and trick journals of days past along with the anticipation of waiting to receive them in the mail.Continue reading →Tuesday, February 16, 2016\r\n            Nicholas Einhorn bought the rights to Antonio Romero’s Bill to Marker and he is now releasing this through Vanishing Inc. I got to take part in filming the trailer which you can see on the Vanishing Inc. site linked above along with my cameo appearance! This came about from attending The Session Convention back in January and the filming of the trailer happened on the last night after all proceedings had finished.Continue reading →Thursday, December 22, 2011\r\n            Magician Rich Aviles launches his new company Trcky in January, sign up to the newsletter now to receive a free trick when it launches.Continue reading →Tuesday, December 6, 2011\r\n            The new Magicana online Erdnase Exhibition started by Julie Eng and Jason England.

Pete Hathway hit the streets of Brighton and London performing street magic for people in their 20s working in the cities. They said “We had a great time as you’ll see from our films - but we are also trying to communicate a different message. We want to demonstrate that by starting a company pension early, your money could grow …as if by magic!Continue reading →Tuesday, December 6, 2011\r\n            Watch out for a review of this coming soon, I am still working my way through this but for now take a look at the press release and place your order at Amazon.
