Make Me
by Jim Gerrish
"Make me choose the seven of
hearts, I dare you!" And with the Make Me
deck of Jumbo Playing Cards, you can do just that. You
don't have to use Jumbo Cards, but this is a forcing deck
you make yourself that can be used with cards of any
size, for use on the largest stage. Any card in the deck
can be forced. YOU decide which one it shall be.
First, the Jumbo Deck of cards is fanned
out so everyone can see that all the cards are different.
The cards are then shuffled and cut several times by you
and a spectator taking turns. The spectator freely
selects a number card (two to ten) from the deck, and
then is handed the deck to deal off that number of cards
onto the table. It seems like a perfectly fair way to
choose a random card from the deck, which can be
immediately fanned out again and shown to consist of all
different cards in random order, but the card chosen by
the spectator is, in fact, forced.

Zen-Ten
by Jim Gerrish
A new set of Zener design cards
consisting of ten different symbols for
revealing extra sensory perception (ESP), clairvoyance,
and other para-normal powers in you and members of your
audience. You can buy a set of 52 Zen-Ten cards in either
color or black and white from our Make Playing Cards Store. Or you can use
any two sets of Zener design ESP cards combined together
and print out your own Zen-Ten faces.
Use the Zen-Ten deck to perform a
matching card routine that goes beyond the usual five
symbol version. Predict the order of five or more cards
that will be randomly dealt by a spectator. And more...

First, get yourself a pair of 3-D anaglyph glasses BEFORE you order
this e-Book, so you'll know what kind of magical world
you are entering. If you have the red-blue (or red-cyan)
glasses, look at my hidden mountain cave. This is just
the beginning. You can create an entire show of visual
wonders using 3-D projections, 3-D cards, 3-D games and
3-D posters. Of course the audience will have to be
equipped with glasses, but these days they are used to
that when attending 3-D movies, and I'll even show you
how to sell them the glasses for a small profit and
on-going advertisements for your 3-D Magic show.

A spectator opens up a box tied with a
red ribbon and removes a wine glass. The wine glass is
handed to the magician and the empty box is reclosed and
retied with the red ribbon by the spectator, who then
holds the box. The magician, in the course of using the
wine glass for magic, makes the glass disappear. The
spectator then unties the red ribbon and reopens the box
he has been guarding to find that the wine glass has
returned to it. A new effect for the old 1930's Gizmo Box
that no one will suspect could possibly be a Gizmo Box.

Using Christmas Themed Coloring Books
from the Dollar Store, you will find all the
illustrations you need to make a variety of Christmas
Magic on paper and cardboard... a version of Instant Art,
Two Card Monte, Four Card Monte, D'Lite-ful Cards,

these old faithful tricks guarantees that no other
magicians will be performing YOUR show, and no kids will

can be made with new themes from Dollar Store Coloring
Books for Valentine's Day, Easter, The 4th of July,
Halloween, etc! But this is MY Christmas Gift to YOU!
Merry Christmas!

This is based on my
“Impuzzleble!” e-Book that was published in
2014 for Hardboard & Duct Tape Book 3 – item
7. While the trick is essentially the same, the
method is much simpler and with the addition of some
animal blindfolds, it is a lot more fun. I'm using
puzzles with fewer pieces, like the Bob Ross Mighty
Mountain Lake puzzle from Dollar Tree. The simplest
version uses a 16 piece Dollar Store puzzle that is just
right for performing for kids. Spectators mix up the
pieces, then draw out three pieces while blindfolded. The
rest of the pieces are scattered on cardboard and covered
with a cloth. When the cloth is whisked away, the puzzle
is completed except for the three pieces held by the
spectators, which now can be used to finish the puzzle
for a round of applause.

Christmas Season, 2019: I’ve been
thinking about this for a couple of years now, ever since
I first saw a “carry-on” costume on the
Internet. This year I took the plunge and bought one for
my Christmas shows in December and January of 2019. There
are many other types available which can be adapted for
other seasons and themes.
I have an announcer introduce me as I
stand behind the curtain in my costume, jingling some
sleigh bells in my free hand. I enter, carried on by
Santa Claus himself, working him like a huge puppet,
"Ho, Ho, Ho-ing all the Way." Sometimes he
boosts me up so I can add an ornament to the Christmas
tree. Eventually we enter the "Phantom Chimney"
which I invented just for this trick. The Chimney is
opened up and turned around to be shown empty from all
sides. Santa and I enter from the back, but I come out
the front on my own two legs... Santa has completely
disappeared and the Chimney is again shown empty, inside
and out. Later, if you have a small assistant who can
keep a secret, you can produce him or her dressed as an
Elf from the Chimney, which has other uses for a magician
that are described in the e-Book.

The Magic Meter is a prop for
“measuring” audience applause, laughter, or
belief in magic. It is contained in a small plastic
suitcase attached to a sensor or a microphone or a
facsimile thereof, and has a needle pointing to a dial
that rises and falls according to the whim of the person
carrying the Magic Meter. At the end of your act, you can
make the meter seem to explode and fall apart from all
the fun and excitement you are apparently recording with
it. You can buy all the needed parts to make it for $20
or less.

This is like my Anniversary Two-Step, except this time I
will be using inexpensive decks of small heart-shaped
Valentine’s Day Cards from Oriental Trading. Because it is designed
for bashful kids who always squirm from admitting that
they really like a member of the opposite (or same) sex,
it can use any two cards to represent them, from King,
Queen or Jack to Ace or any of the number cards. The two
cards are freely chosen by the two Best Friends, signed
by each of them on the card face, and at the end, the two
signed cards merge into one just as in the other
Anniversary card tricks.

You borrow someone’s swag (ring, earring, coin,
trinket). You make the swag vanish in your favorite way
(or you can borrow any of my favorite ways –
included in this e-Book). Then, you call attention to the
Swag Bag hanging from a hook, or attached
by cord to the inside of your wallet, etc. You allow the
swag’s owner to feel the bag from the outside…
it feels like there is a something inside the cloth bag.
The owner opens the bag and his or her vanished swag is
found inside. Make or buy any small bag with tie strings
and easily turn it into a magic Swag Bag. OR use flat
swag (cards, coins, credit cards, business cards) and
after vanishing it, it appears inside TWO sealed paper
envelopes that were in plain sight since the beginning.

How does it work? When do I get my purchases? How
are they delivered? Where is everybody?
