Description
Conjuring Arts and the Albo family proudly and exclusively offer Dr. Albo’s “Classic Magic” collection in PDF format!
The definitive guide to the greatest prop-based magic ever created—further effects!
“There is still so very much to learn about magic” writes Dr. Robert J. Albo at the start of this magnificent volume. One of the best ways for readers to increase their magical knowledge, however, is to study this book.
Final Classic Magic with Apparatus offers a wealth of inspiring material for stage performers. Whether you want to study how masters like Kellar and Houdini made flowers appear onstage, or simply want to add new material straight into your act, this book has it all. Dr. Albo begins with a lengthy chapter on magic with flowers, before shifting his focus to silks and flags. Effects with bottles follow, before routines with lamps and radios, guns and rifles, tubes and vases, rings and livestock are explored in detail, with a separate chapter devoted to each category, while a concluding section covers miscellaneous tricks and props including the Baffo Box, Candle Tube, Color-Changing Die, and more.
Dr. Albo’s explanations are clear and comprehensive, and accompanied by detailed illustrations. His sources are the props that formed his own extensive collection, as well as items he found in the collections of his magical confrères. Choice pieces from the finest prop manufacturers in North America and Europe are illustrated in full color at the end of the volume.
424 pages. Fully searchable text with extensive illustrations.
