These just might be the best
coin tapes ever made! This material has been sought after by
magicians for years and now all three volumes are available on
one 4
Hour DVD!
Volume
One
- Bologna Debut, a gradual production
of coins with a surprising ending.
- Purse Spellbound concerns a
half dollar in a purse viewed by the spectator. With the purse
in his hands, the spectator suddenly discovers the half dollar
has changed to a Chinese coin.
- Twilight Zone is a routine with
a Midas touch. Four copper coins turn to gold, one at a time,
then magically, return to copper. This trick introduces the Duo-Mat
idea to good advantage. A useful device that eliminates pocketing.
- The Black Hole. A black disc,
slightly larger than a half dollar, is displayed. With the "hole"
flat on the table, four coins are apparently tossed in this black
space. The black "hole" is picked up and magically
changes to a small black box which, when opened, reveals the
missing coins. A most effective and amusing routine.
- Shuttle Flight. Four half dollars
are vanished, one at a time and make a reappearance beneath a
playing card. Neat coin handling with easy-to-follow moves, thanks
to the close-up camera work and good lighting.
- Okito Klinker is an Okito Box
routine with a surprising touch that makes this a real winner
for any close-up worker. The empty coin box is covered with its
lid. A half dollar is tossed toward the covered box and heard
to arrive. Two more coins are tossed magically into the box and
the spectator hears each coin as it arrives in the box. He removes
the lid and believes what he heard, as the three coins are found
within. This is a pretty effect and a clever bit of deception.

Volume
Two
- Voodoo Revelation is a happy
combination of card and coin magic, with a number of magical
surprises. A chosen card is shuffled in the deck and the cards
placed aside. Five copper coins are arranged in a row. One is
chosen and a white gummed sticker affixed and the spectator places
his name or initials on this coin for identification. The coin
is now placed, sticker side down, beneath a metal chalice (or
cup). Now, the magic starts. The four remaining coins are picked
up and turned over, one at a time. Each coin also has a white
sticker and each bears the spectator's name or initials. The
coins are dropped in the chalice. One at a time, the coins are
removed and turned over, the stickers have vanished but a word
appears on each coin. The layout of the four coins (plus the
original selection from beneath the chalice, from which the sticker
has vanished) form a sentence which names the chosen card. Upon
looking through the deck, the chosen card is seen to have the
missing sticker attached to its face.
- Arithmatic Coins is an amusing
two coin routine with an old and 'new math' theme.
- Kaps Matting Copper/Silver is
a neat presentation of Fred Kaps' routine where four half dollars
end up as four Chinese coins.
- The Dream - A routine with a
purse and four coins plus a story of a dream of entering a competition
for the world's greatest magician.
- Tax - The performer relates
a visit to a store and a purchase in which he has but a half
dollar. Price of the article is one dollar so, magically, another
half dollar appears. When emphasis is placed on the one dollar
price, the two halves change to a silver dollar. When the storekeeper
indicates that additional tax is required, the performer clasps
both hands and produces a handful of thumb tacks!
- Magic Coins is a neat, ungimmicked
coin routine that will puzzle knowing wizards who suspect magnetic
coins.
- Giant Sucker Coin Vanish is
an amusing routine with a jumbo coin. There is sucker by-play
with 'under-the-arm' hideaway a la egg bag buffoonery of yesteryear.
The tape concludes with a description of the Fingerless Retention
Pass.

Volume
Three
- The Heckler offers the performer
an opportunity to demonstrate what he can do to fool the 'wise
guy' or 'heckler' who is determined to explain just 'how it is
done.' There are vanishes, appearances and changes during which
a bent coin and one with a hole play an important part.
- Silverlint II is a copper/silver
sequence that starts after a piece of silver lint is plucked
from your clothing. A giant half dollar is involved with this
brief bit of coin chicanery.
- Two Card Reverse Matrix is an
unusual matrix effect using two cards from which the centers
have been cut, thus making them into window cards. Even though
the spectator can see through the cards, the customary matrix
routine is presented, with coins vanishing and accumulating.
The surprise finish is when suddenly, the four coins are discovered
back in their original four corners of the close-up mat.
- Giant Four coins Through the
Table. Four jumbo coins penetrate the table top one at a time.
Beautifully routined - looks impossible!
- Karate Coin - A thumb penetration
of a half dollar.
