Scarne On card tricks by John Scarne  

An authority on gaming and card tricks, John Scarne is renown for teaching professional gamblers how to sharpen their skills to avoid being fleeced. For this collection of mystifying and effective maneuvers, he assembled an exciting series of original effects and classic card tricks, reworked to eliminate the need for sleight-of-hand. 

Simple instructions and clear diagrams illustrate Houdini’s “Card on the Ceiling,” Blackstone’s “Card Trick Without Cards,” Carlyle’s “Piano Card Trick,” Milton Berle’s “Quickie Card Deal,” and dozens more. Also included are Scarne’s “Drunken Poker Deal,” “Knockout Card Trick,” and others from his repertoire — tricks that have fooled some of the world’s leading magicians. 

Scarne presents all tricks with advice on accompanying patter, offering helpful suggestions about the kinds of words and gestures that give performances a professional gloss. Anyone can learn these tricks, and this single volume contains everything a would-be master of card magic needs to know.
