Banjo Coin by The Other Brothers
Continuously producing small objects out of thin air is a classic of magic that's been exclusively the domain of the masters of our craft. It's the kind of effect us mortals try, then soon abandon because it doesn't quite look like it does in our imaginations.
Until today.
Creative geniuses The Other Brothers have come up with the final word on making this illusion look like real magic, and easy enough for ANYBODY to do.
This brand new gimmick makes it look like you have an invisible 3D printer that prints instantly and on demand.
Banjo Coin is so fun to perform it’s almost addictive. It may look incredibly difficult but once you get the gimmick in your hand you will be performing this for real people in no time.
The Banjo Coin gimmick is a brand new gimmick for sleight of hand artists. This wearable gimmick can be easily added or removed in and out of performances and it's practically invisible.

Mental Die-Mensional By Sudo
** Now comes with the Mental Die-Mensional Trainer App to make the learning process even easier and fun. If you already purchased this, simply log into your account to download it.
Forget your electronic and expensive gimmicked die sets that only use one die. Forget not being able to perform these effects without your special apparatus handy. Imagine being able to do this with NORMAL dice…and 100% impromptu.
That day has finally come.
Find out for yourself why Sudo's latest effect has been fooling knowledgeable Mentalists and performers everywhere!
Everyone has purchased pipe dreams or effects that they've quickly forgotten about, but this is a strong, commercial routine that you’ll likely be doing for the rest of your life. Mental Die-Mensional, is arguably the finest divination with ungimmicked dice to date.
Effect: Offering to demonstrate the difference between intuition and thought-reading, you jot down a premonition on a business card to test your intuitive abilities which you leave face-down in front of your participant.
You hand them two dice and turn your back. The participant makes three rolls with the dice, silently totaling the rolls as they do so and without ever once saying a word. They are then asked to cover each die when finished - one die under each hand. You turn back around…
For the first time, the participant announces their total. Your premonition is turned face-up…
Unbelievably, they match! Occasionally you might miss. But much of the time you won’t. Such are the breaks when one is relying solely on intuition alone.
But now you do the impossible. You ask the participant which die they would like you to reveal first. You ask them to visualize the die under the chosen hand…
… and immediately reveal the number on that die!
You then reveal the number on the die hidden under their other hand – immediately and with no funny business whatsoever.
And THAT, is the difference between intuition and thought-reading!
This is surely Sudo’s finest thinking to date. Many Mystery Performers didn’t believe that it was possible or as clean as described until it was demonstrated for them…and they were shocked... because It really is exactly as described!
Key Points:
- the dice are completely normal
- the totals are freely rolled
- the results are different every time
- no forces
- the performer truly doesn’t see anything
- the participant writes nothing down
- absolutely 100% impromptu
- easy to do
- repeatable, without fear of discovery
- works every time without fail
- can even be performed over the phone!
If you’re looking for a powerful impromptu Mentalism routine - this is definitely it. You can borrow the dice as they are completely ungimmicked, but most people will likely want to carry around a set after learning this fantastic routine. Next time you have a game night, you’ll be prepared to stun everyone with this miracle! Get it now before someone else fools you badly with it.
A few reviews from the Magic Cafe:
"This is absolutely stellar material, and a stunning example of an impromptu miracle that is about as close as you can get to perfect..." - Seth
"Sudo blew my mind. When the end moment comes, there’s just really no words to explain how gobsmacking it is. It just doesn’t seem possible for him to know the numbers on the dice. And yet, he IMMEDIATELY divines them. It’s kind of nuts. The method is brilliant. Absolutely brilliant and 100% surefire. Wonderful thinking as always from Sudo. You won’t be disappointed with this. This is something I’ll have in the back of my head for those moments when the time comes. And I’m thinking of including it in my table hopping/mix and mingle set." - Madison Hagler
"I have read the pdf on this and all I can say is WOW. This is so good... This gets my vote for one of the top three effects this year." - Bowers
"This routine kills! It killed me! I am sure it will be a lot of fun performing as well. It is impossible to backtrack, due to the presentational structure and nature that Sudo has developed, so even the smartest person won't be able to figure it out. I have my dice and will always carry them with me from now on, so I can do this effect. This is easy to do, strong, killer, no filler, and will always be ready to go when you need it. Worker material. Can't wait to hear what Sudo has in the pipeline next..." - Alex Alejandro (BMW Guy)
"The routine is just brilliant!! This is really some of the best thinking on an impromptu Mentalism piece. Everything is well justified. And here is the beautiful thing about it. If you use some of the more expensive gizmos, this routine will save you when one is not around. Even better, this routine can incorporate that for some amazing hard hitting Mentalism. I will be using this from now as I already know how well it plays (and the reviews preceding mine already show that it is a worker)!! Simply put, I LOVE IT!!! Well done Sudo!!!" - Ash2arani
"I don’t usually post, but I bought this and have to say this is a very strong routine. Love the thinking here. Sudo, your hunch was correct. I will be carrying dice with me. This is a winner. " - Elliot Marx
"The method is great, and very clever. It's not something that I would have thought of and I'm confident that participants won't be able to back track anything." - Pixelated
"Thank you for making this available Sudo. As I have always said about your work, you take the “I should have thought of that” genre to new heights." - Sean Waters
"I really really like this, and will be something I perform a lot. Very happy customer. Thank you Sudo!!" - Dr. Ross
"Another beautifully constructed routine from Sudo. Excellent." - Mike Hopley
"I have it. I would say it’s as good as it sounds. That is it’s really fooling. I think magicians may like it even more than layman since magician like to be fooled as much as entertained and it really is fooling." - Xcath1
"Last week I got a chat from Sudo - and he asked me to jump on Google Hangouts for a minute. He knew I had been messing around with dice switches, so he asked me to grab some dice, which I did. He proceeded to absolutely fry my brain. It's so rare that I get really fooled by an effect, and even more rare that I get to experience a moment of actual mystery, but it happened with this effect. Those of you that know me know I'm not prone to hyperbole, but this is just so f'n good, I really can't help myself." - Last Laugh
"If I knew hypnosis, I would hypnotise Sudo and keep him from selling it." - Shaukat
Mind Thief by Chris Philpott
"This effect is just outstanding! I really love Mind Thief, and I will do it close-up. Thanks for putting this out. It is going to be so much fun to do."
- Ethan Nessen
"Have to say, Mind Thief is really stunning, very clever. I'm really enjoying it. Thank you for releasing this brilliant effect."
- Garry Hadley
Mind Thief is a fun game of imagination, with a plot twist that turns it into a powerful piece of mind reading. A spectator thinks of one of any one of over 30 valuable objects: a platinum Rolex, a Prada necklace, Gucci Shoes, or a million dollars: it is truly a free choice, nothing is ever written down and no questions are asked.
The spectator imagines he has to get this valuable object home and hide it - but someone is trying to steal it from him! The performer shows him pictures and words in a spiral-bound book with options to get home and hide the object: on wide thoroughfares or narrow alleys, entering his home from the front door or back, hiding it in the bedroom of basement. The spectator never tells the performer his choices.
The performer then explains this has all been a con job: the real valuable object is the thought in the spectator's mind, the thief is the magician, trying to steal that thought; and the imagination game told the magician everything he needs to know about how the spectator thinks: for example, his choice of whether to go home on a wide street versus a narrow alley reveals how comfortable they would be sneaking this object home through a crowd and helps the performer interpret their body language. The performer then tells the spectator not only what the valuable object is, but where in his house he's hidden it.
Mind Thief is an effect I've been working on for over five years. It includes a combination of methods and strategies in a way that maximizes the emotional, dramatic and fooling power of the effect. It also includes a number of variations that I've explored along the way. And the Mind Thief method is applicable to other presentations you can make yourself - you can do it with names of people you know and character traits, or superheroes and their powers - there are unlimited possibilities!
"I just got Mind Thief. Wow! Truly amazing. The incredible amount of thought and care you put into the effect and its production are evident. Also, 'packs flat and plays big' is always a plus. Thanks for creating a spectacular effect."
- Sam Downing
"There is so much amazing flexibility within this intelligent effect. I found myself happily inspired. I ended up creating my own customized application of Mind Thief that dovetails well into both my table hopping and stage show."
- Doug Sparkes
"As always... great effect! I love the simplicity."
- Ed Rapoza
"Mind Thief is great - never doubted it would be. I really enjoyed the instructions. The quality of the prop is up to the high standards of all of your products. It's especially nice that you provide PDFs to customize Mind Thief."
- Shad Schroeder
"Received Mind Thief yesterday. Absolutely love it! It will be going into the act as soon as possible. Nicely produced prop and brilliant method."
- Alan Kennedy
Includes a presentation book, an instructional video and extra JPEG artwork.
Dani DaOrtiz LIVE ACT (Penguin LIVE)
"Simply super strong magic full of surprises!" - Juan Tamariz
"Dani is not only a product of the “Spanish School” of card magic, with masters such as Ascanio and Tamariz as his influences, he is also the product of the ethereal mixture of biology, psychology, stardust and unicorn tears that produces genius. Two of my favorite magicians were Albert Goshman and Del Ray. They had the ability to connect with an audience through their magic on a basic emotional level. There was an honesty in their work. Their ingenious methods, impeccable technique and their irresistible characters were intertwined to create a whole experience greater than the sum of it’s parts. I can think of few performers today who rise to that level. Dani is one. His performances seem spontaneous, his miracles real. An audience feels that they have been treated to a unique experience, not an over-rehearsed stale presentation. To watch him with a live audience is a lesson in what close up magic ought to be, an imitate shared experience of miracles and humanity. His casual style disguises his deep understanding of fundamental magic principles and applied psychology. Any student of magic, at any level would do well to pay close attention." - David Williamson

The Legacy of Phantini with Richard Osterlind
Phantini was one of the world's most successful performing mentalists in the 50s, 60s and 70s. His material was ahead of its time, and as devious as it was bullet-proof.
Unknown to even today's top pros, Phantini's mentalism has been studied, modernized and further polished by one of the most successful and influential mentalists alive today, Richard Osterlind.
With their forces combined, you're getting underground secrets, combined with modern techniques, all presented by one of the most experienced TEACHERS of mentalism in the world.
Included in this product are SIX full-length polished routines, including a bonus book-page forcing technique that alone is worth the price of admission.
Opener Book Test
The mentalist shows the audience two ordinary paper back books. One is given to a member of the audience and another spectator is invited on stage. Once on stage the spectator places a business card anywhere in the middle of the book the mentalist is holding and peeks at a page number and a word. After she identifies the word and a page number she writes the page number on the business card. The number she writes down is then given to the members of holding a book and they open their book to the page number on the business card. While the seated audience members opens their books at the page written on the business card the mentalist addresses another member of the audience and asks her to think of someone close to her and write it down and seal it in an envelope. The audience members with books write down the fist few words at the top of the page that they have previously opened to.
The mentalist jots something down on a pad of paper and reveals the thought of page number and word from the spectator who was brought on stage. Next he reveals the word written down by the spectator. Finally the spectator reveals the exact person that a member of the audience is just thinking of.
Psychic Symbols
Three spectators are invited on stage. The mentalist shows the spectators a stack of cards each with a different symbol on it. A fourth spectator is brought on stage and blindfolds the mentalist. Each volunteer on stage looks at a symbol from the stack and the mentalist correctly divines each symbol that the spectators are looking at.
The Moving Hand Writes
Two spectators are on stage. The mentalist shuffles a deck of cards, deals five cards to a table and asks one of the spectators to look at any of the dealt cards on the table. After he peeks at a card he mixes the cards on the table then the second spectator also peeks at a card. This is all done while the mentalist is several feet away. The mentalist tells both volunteers which cards they are thinking of and one of the spectator is asked to take her seat in the audience. With one spectator remaining on stage the mentalist shuffles the cards and hands the deck to the spectator. An envelope containing a single playing card is brought out of the mentalists pocket and placed on the table. The spectator deals cards one at a time into the mentalist hands and stops at any time. The card that he stops at matches the card in the envelope.
Incredible Insight #2
A paper bag and seven or eight pieces of paper from a newspaper. A volunteer selects a portion of the newspaper, crumbles up the piece of paper and tosses it in the paper bag. After that all of the other pieces are crumbled up and tossed in the bag and mixed. The mentalist then reaches in the bag and pulls out the exact piece that the spectator chooses and also reveals a thought of word from that piece of newspaper.
Micro Crypto
Spectators just think of one of several charms on a table. After they have thought of a charm you reveal it with out anything written down. As a finale they choose one of several charms and you are able to correctly predict which charm they will choose.
Phantini's Magazine Miracle
Someone chooses a page freely from a magazine with a playing card. They put an X on that page. Another spectator looks at the X and chooses a word where the X has been made. With all those random choices their chosen word matches a prediction that has been in full view since the beginning of the routine.

Dragon Peek by Fraser Parker
The spectator writes a piece of personal information on a random playing card which is then shuffled and lost in the deck. The deck is spread towards the spectator and they confirm their card is indeed lost somewhere in the deck, which is then closed and placed face down onto the table.
And yet, you will always be able to peek what was written, in the fairest manner possible.
Thanks to the structure and psychology of this peek you will always be in a position to be able to obtain the information effortlessly, without any out of place moves and with zero heat on the moment.
It literally takes a few seconds and all of the moves look and feel exactly how they would if you were in fact, doing nothing!
There is no rush or pressure to get your peek as you will be doing it right in front of your spectators but thanks to the psychology it will be hidden in plain sight!
This really is as clean and simplified as it sounds.
Any deck, Any time, NO gimmicks!
Utilize a full peek of the playing card to easily obtain names, words, star signs and drawings made by your spectator as well as multiple pieces of information.
Fraser will also teach his justification for a use of a deck of cards in performances of Mentalism.
This is different to what Fraser has released in the past.
It requires a beginner level knowledge of basic sleight of hand.
Balance by Joshua Jay
First came "Inferno," which won Trick of the Year in 2012. Then came "Out of Sight," which fooled Penn & Teller. After eight years of development, performed exclusively at the end of Joshua Jay's parlor shows, he is ready to unveil a sensational, unique wonder... AND SAVE if you buy early because the retail price goes up $50 on January 1st, 2019.
Balance features the rarest effect in magic: suspension. An eclectic but ordinary group of objects is passed out for close examination: a bottle, a card box, a pencil, a toothbrush, and a crayon box. NOTHING sticky, no strings - totally normal.
The objects are collected and, one by one, the objects are stacked, first in ways that seem impressive but possible, and then in ways that are COMPLETELY impossible. At the end, your audience is left with a stunning, impossible sculpture -- each object hanging impossibly in the air without explanation.
Balance is the perfect closer or encore piece for a parlor show because it is SO unlike anything else that would appear in a magic show. And unlike most magic, Balance LIVES in a state of impossibility. With every phase you build, the magic is staring at your audience, even after you've left the stage.
A New Kind of Magic: One thing Joshua didn't expect as he developed Balance is the unusual, 21st-century quality associated with it. People HAVE to take pictures of it. They can't help themselves. It's too unusual NOT to remember, and everyone wants to take home evidence of what they've seen. Over time, Joshua has learned to lean into this, actually allowing his audiences to film it and get pictures of it afterward.
A Stunning Package of Props: You receive everything you need to perform Balance in a beautiful foil-encrusted box. Your props for the trick are kept in a velvet box that allows you to switch the examined objects for the specially-made props imperceptibly onstage, without any special pockets or servante. The hinged box has protective "wings," so you can perform Balance virtually surrounded. You receive ten hand-crafted props that have each been designed under Josh's watchful eye. And, you get Joshua Jay on video, one of magic's best teachers, taking you through every detail of the routine.
Perform it Immediately: Joshua's creations take years to develop and, in some cases, years of practice to perform. Happily, Balance can be performed within MINUTES of opening the box for the first time. The only skill you'll need is FAKING the difficulty of doing it.
Exclusivity: Due to the extremely intense manufacturing process, and the years of development, Balance is offered at $200. When you SEE the package, you'll realize what a bargain this is. The whole package exudes quality, and this is a small investment in what will become the closing piece of your show. And, the price will necessarily keep the routine from becoming over-exposed. You will likely be the only one in your area performing Balance.
Quality You Can't Fake: Joshua Jay does NOT release magic often. We get a glimpse into his creative process every five years or so, when he releases something new. That's why his magic -- from "Triad Coins" to "Inferno" to "Out of Sight" -- is IMMEDIATELY snatched up upon release, and it's hard to keep his creations in stock. He thinks through every aspect of an effect, from the theatrics to the product design, right down to how to reset between shows. THAT is what you're investing in with Balance: years of painstaking detail.

We release a small amount of original content each year, but Card Magic Masterclass will be an enduring resource - a legacy, perhaps - to magicians for years to come.

Creative Picks By Chris Rawlins
CREATIVE PICKS is new a collection of five hand selected secrets for the mystery performer, directly from the working repertoire of Chris Rawlins.
With these secrets you will be able to learn a single truth about your spectator. Perform a killer drawing duplication with multiple moments of real time mind reading, and much more.
Best of all, all of this material can be adapted to your preferred working environments, what Chris uses from CREATIVE PICKS on stage, works just as well and plays just as strong casually or for smaller audiences.
This small volume contains material that will excite your imagination, get your creative juices flowing and inspire you to get out and perform these mental miracles.
Included:
The Single Truth: A utility approach for acquiring information about your spectator.
In This Order: A simplified 3 chair test that it’s not confusing for an audience to follow, it’s very easy to perform and it has an original and surprising conclusion that gives the whole routine a purpose.
HACK: Chris' solution to simplify the newspaper test. You will love it.
3S1D: This is a drawing duplication that Chris omitted from his book ‘Drawing Thoughts’ back in 2016. As at the time of publishing he wanted to keep this for himself. It has since become a state in his performances of Mind Reading at private parties.
CREATIVE PICKS also contains a bonus, where Chris gives a solution to a problem presented to the reader in The Jinx by Theodore Annemann.
Jan Forster LIVE ACT (Penguin LIVE)

"Jan's billet work is simply exceptional!"- Peter Turner

"Jan, you're the best!"-Paul Vigil
"Jan is one of the cleverest guys around, his thinking is simply brilliant!"- Michael Murray
C.I.S. (Card in Sharpie) by Mark Calabrese
One thing is clear. Mark Calabrese performs this trick A LOT. And why wouldn't he, with those reactions. A FREELY selected, SIGNED card ends up inside the sharpie marker they signed it with. Surreal, and impossible, and people FREAK OUT.
It's called "Card in Sharpie" and it's a worker. Perfect for working pros, table hoppers or just casual performers who want to freak out their friends.
It is instantly reset and ready to go again for your next audience so there's no fiddly setup time.
What you get is a bullet-proof routine that Mark has been perfecting in his act, and an extremely detailed instructional video that you'll only get from a pro who's clearly been working a trick daily.
Matt Baker Penguin Live Act
"Matt Baker is a thoughtful, smart performer. His material mixes subtle methods and engaging presentations, and the result is always fun to watch." -Joshua Jay
"Matt is smart. Matt is clever. Matt Baker has repeatedly fooled me badly. His plots are clear cut and appealing and his methods are diabolical. These days it's a cliché to hear "Don't miss this lecture", but in this case it's really true: DON'T MISS THIS LECTURE!" -Mike Powers
"Combine Matt's personality with his expertise and you obtain that classic yet rare experience: being fooled by a gentleman." -Vincent Hedan
"Matt Baker is my favorite magician you've never heard of... yet. He fools everyone but the smartest person in the room… and that’s only because that's Matt himself. Carefully crafted principles are combined in new ways that make me giddy with excitement every time I see him perform." -Caleb Wiles
"Matt Baker is one of the magic world's best kept secrets. He has fooled me time and again with his clever methods and original thinking." -Dan Garrett
"I have seen several of Matt's routines and was fascinated and fooled. I am looking forward to his lecture, among other reasons, just to see how they work…" -John Bannon
The Power by Casshan Wallace
You have a gift. Something primal you were born with that allows you to tap into another physical dimension. Only one in.. perhaps a billion people is born with this ability, and it takes years to develop it at all. You've only just begun training it, and look what you can do already. Wait till they see you again in a decade.
The Power isn't meant to be combined with other tricks. You shouldn't perform tricks before or after The Power. Once you demonstrate The Power, you're done. The Power is an act in itself. A single, awe-inspiring demonstration that is as likely to create stunned silence as it is screams and expletives.
In the package, you'll get everything you need to perform The Power included. It's easy to learn, and very practical to use. Being setup to perform The Power will not impede your movement, your ability to thumb wrestle, dance, drink, hug or anything else most people do when they're out on the town.
In addition to the main routine, Casshan teaches 2 additional tricks, one using money and one using playing cards. The teaching is very thorough.
Legacy of Annemann with Docc Hilford
This is a unique mentalism product, even among those special products aimed at professionals. Learning this material is like standing on the shoulders of a giant who is standing on the shoulders of another giant.
Here's why..
Docc Hilford is teaching his own working material. But specifically, he's teaching his working material that is based on Ted Anneman's working material.
The tricks were gold to start with. Then Docc performed them thousands of times, and they've evolved into polished MODERN showpieces. He's pouring every bit of that lifetime of experience -- no wait, TWO lifetimes of experience -- into this nearly three HOUR course.
There is no filler here. Each chapter is a showpiece. You get to see live audience performances of everything, and then learn in full detail how to entertain and amaze with them.
FIVE polished routines. Full live performances for real audiences. Nearly 3 hours long.

DVD 2 - NEW EFFECTS II & THEORY
This DVD ends the "new effects" section of the previous disc, with some tricks, among which are "The Perfect Play" and Dani's versions of the classic "Reverse Trick by Paul Curry," and more.
In addition to the theory that Dani presents to us in each explanation, in this DVD he wanted to dedicate a few minutes to explore exciting subjects such as "how to be natural," explaining the concept using a "card in the mouth" trick.
DVD 3 -THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL (AND MORE EFFECTS)
Two interesting topics that Dani tackles in this DVD: Estimation, to which Dani dedicates more than an hour, with techniques, effects, subtleties and DaOrtiz-style handling, and a second theme, no less fascinating, as it is "The Thought of Card," which Dani has spoken about on many occasions, bringing new thoughts into this work.
DVD 4 - SEMIAUTOMATIC TRICKS & THEORY
Seven new semiautomatic jewels that will surely increase your magical repertoire. And also, an interesting section on "Lateral Thinking."
