Paperback. Condition: VG. Very nice clean copy. From the Foreword: I was invited to write this foreword, I agreed with some misgivings. So much has already been written on the subject that I could not imagine what the author had to offer. This book, however, I find is well titled and is just what it says " Basic Card Technique."… The material has been carefully collected for easy reference for the beginner and student of card magic. The author has given a wide selection of methods for performing standard sleights, and introduced to the reader most known methods of prepared cards. References are made to the works of Hugard and Hillier for those who wish to pursue their studies in later developments. This is not exactly a book for the expert, for he will be familiar with much of the material, but it will save the beginner much trouble and expense in acquiring his knowledge, for this book does not pre-suppose his knowledge of elementary card work, and the student is taken in hand from the beginning through the whole realm of card sleights. Apart from the description of basic sleights, I find very good advice given at the beginning of the various chapters. One piece of advice that particularly interested me and which I have always advocated is that smoothness is often more important than speed. Many otherwise competent card workers sadly lack this desirable acquisition and the student will be well advised to consider this well. This book is particularly recommended to the beginner who does not want to spend a lot of money buying several books to acquire the knowledge contained in this one volume. FRANCIS HAXTON 77 pages.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. #149 of 600 numbered copies. Book appears unread, with a magic-shop stamp to front endpaper; unclipped (35/-) DJ shows light wear to edges and corners; staining to back cover; spine slightly toned. "For many years there has been a real ne…ed amongst the magical fraternity, for a book of this nature. Until now, no work has been produced which bridges the gap between books of easy card tricks without skill, and the books of advanced card magic, most of which presuppose a knowledge of basic sleights and subtleties. We are therefore proud to present this book, in which for the first time have been assembled all the sleights, methods and subtleties essential to the successful practice of card magic in all its stages." 298 pages.
