Transposition by Arthur H. Buckley

Merry Christmas everyone!



Card Control by Arthur H. Buckley
Page 150 et seq. second method

Personal Comment: I love reading old magic books. Somehow most of the effects are pure in some way. Just single effort instead of the efforts of generations of thinking magicians. The above effect is very basic and a great opener to a card magic set, I think. And it is really cheap to get the book. Order it the paperback Dover book and you will be happy. Of course you could do this effect with three selections, but this 1-2-3 to 3-1-2 order is easy to understand even when you are drunk. The method is straight forward and not a lot of subtleties and convincers are thrown in. Sometimes that helps the effect.

Difficulty: 1/5
