Self-working Paper Magic

Put a little magic into your life. Karl Fulves, one of the best  known writers in the field, shares tricks of the trade in this marvelous  book — over 80 foolproof, easy-to-perform paper miracles that anyone  can master. You'll need nothing up your sleeve, no previous experience,  no special dexterity to execute these seemingly impossible feats.
Fulves'  clear step-by-step directions and 367 instructive illustrations by  Joseph K. Schmidt enable even beginning magicians to work wonders with  paper. Now produce a mind-reading effect with file cards, make a piece  of newspaper disappear, perform a routine in which paper rings link  "magically." You’ll find that a puzzling routine such as the "Magic  Mailbox" (No. 4) works best as a close-up trick, while the "Japanese  Checkers" illusion (No. 1) can be done as a showy stage effect.
In  tricks ranging from "telepath to teleportation," learn how to reveal  serial numbers on spectators' bills (No. 10), solve a murder as the  "Psychometric Detective" (No. 19), transport a cup of soda from inside a  paper bag to a borrowed hat (No. 48), pass a pencil through a jacket  (No. 54), cause a star to materialize (No. 72), and a hole punched in  one piece of paper to migrate to another piece of paper (No. 74).
With  this helpful handbook at your fingertips, create paper animals that  seem to come to life and perform magic tricks. Animated paper folds such  as a charming rabbit that flaps its ears are a perennial source of  fascination — and can be made in seconds. The materials needed for these  fascinating tricks range from single sheets of paper to bags, cups, and  paperback books. Lightweight, inexpensive and portable, they pack flat,  take up little space, and get big results!
