The Erd­nase Bible

Recently I found some­thing inte­res­t­ing. The Con­ju­ring Arts Cen­ter sells some tiny TEATCT edi­ti­ons, which look like minia­ture bibles. Great.

The main idea is two-fold. Many times I was asked by the spec­ta­tors, how I lear­ned all those tricks. Now, by having this little book with me, the ans­wer is simple and impres­sive: »It was all published in 1902 and you can learn those tricks by stu­dy­ing this little book, which I have done.« Cute ans­wer, and it is the truth! 😉

The second one is the pos­si­ble trick with it. David Regal published his trick »Pass­port« (or so it was cal­led). In there he uses a prin­ci­ple of mine (with my per­mis­sion), which I used in my »card-to-sea­led-enve­lope« effect cal­led TNT. Com­pa­ring the pass­port David sup­plies with the Erd­nase bible, I rea­li­sed that the very same trick could be done with the Erd­nase mini-book!

So we have:

  • An expl­ana­tion on how these tricks are done
  • A ter­ri­fic trick
  • The oppor­tu­nity to study Erd­nase on the go and improve my magic.

Not too bad at all …
