1st edition. A "Magic Wand" Publication. "Those magicians who specialise in coins, cigarettes thimbles or cards will undoubtedly find something that will at once find its way into their repertoire. Of one effect I must make especial reference, and that is the Card Stab. With the Author's permission I have performed this on many occasions and altough I should have liked to have obtained the exclusive rights, Al Koran is keeping a promise that he made to many magicians that he would disclose the secret in this publication. I have no hesitation in saying that for close quarter work or an intimate audience, it is the finest card effect that I know or have ever seen." (Preface: Edward G.Love).
