Reflections: 4 Aces change a total of 6 times; kind of a version of the Universal Card， but performed with four cards at a time
All Backs: A patter theme for Dai Vernon’s All Backs. Very nice enhancements to the beginning and finale of the routine; uses an unusal deck design to go along with the theme
The Card-Culator: An interlude with a deck of cards and a pocket calculator that seems to control the cards (ending with a card changing places with a battery)
Oil and Water in a Wine Glass: Not just another “Oil and Water”， but a highly visual， very clear presentation with a highly visible vanish
Flying Aces: A “progressive Ace assembly” that is simple， direct， with great emphasis on the vanishes
Cannibals: Where do I begin? This is an 8-minute Cannibals routine packed with entertainment， highly visual changes， etc. Cannibals suffer from losing a tooth， hiccups， ulcers， etc.
