Berland's Tricks and Routines
by Sam Berland

Here's a fabulous collection of Sam's beautifully routined magic with silks, smoke, dice, cards, liquids and more!

Long out of print, this collection includes several miracles, including some that Berland sold separately through mail order.

Contains ten complete, routined effects that include:

  • A triple surprise opening wherein a lighted cigarette emits a puff of smoke that yields a silk handkerchief from which a glass of whiskey is produced and, before you can applaud, a bouquet of flowers pops into view.

  • A most effective card trick called "Impact" where two mentally selected cards vanish and appear in the magician's pocket

  • Rising Card Out of Hat

  • A clever dice routine where dice pass through the table and dice cup, then segues into a nice Han Ping Chien routine, then as a finale, a jumbo die and a shot glass magically appear under the dice cup!

  • A thimble routine that ends up with your fingers staggering under jumbo thimbles

  • A real magical melange with silks, cigarettes, billiard balls and a glass of wine

  • An easy to perform Sun and Moon effect with a borrowed handkerchief.

  • Flop Over Die

  • Cigarette Billiard Ball Routine

  • The Deck That Cuts Itself

  • Buckley False Count

Seventy-three (73) illustrations by Herb Borin cover every move.

And, only in this new edition, are the illustrations sequentially numbered and laid out with the text.

Reviews:

"Ten complete effects, all cleverly routined. Very good and recommended." (Sid Lorraine)

"Excellent effects of headliner caliber — tricks for both stage and close-up." (John Braun)

"Which are my favorites among the treasures to be found here? While they're all outstanding, I’m especially fond of his Dice Routine, Flop Over Die, and of course, the laugh-provoking Sun and Moon with Borrowed Handkerchief routine." (T. A. Whitney in the Forward)

Magic World revised edition features three new chapters and an added illustration.
