Now You See It - Bill Tarr

A comprehensive course in sleight of hand complete in this classic book. This simple learn-by-picture method makes it easy for anyone aged twelve and up to perform all the classic sleights just as they are done by the world's greatest professional magicians.

Long-time magician Bill Tarr has teamed up with Barry Ross, an illustrator famous for his instructional sports diagrams, for easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions, so that with the help of more than 1,500 line drawings that capture each eye-fooling movement, you'll learn everything from simple sleights you can master in minutes to the great classics of magic.

With ordinary objects - a regular deck of cards, a coin from someone's pocket, a few balls of crumpled aluminum foil - you'll soon be performing:

• Cards
• Fans
• The Cups and Balls
• The Three Shell Game
• The Miser's Dream
• Cut and Restored Rope
• Three Card Monte
• And Much More!
