Gary Kurtz: Unexplainable Acts
Get 400 VI Points for this purchase.
Unexplainable Acts by Richard Kaufman is something of a cult classic and it is finally back in print!
The elusive Gary Kurtz is known as one of the great minds in close-up, and this is his only hardbound collection. Although a thin volume, the book is densely packed with outstanding, visual magic that has influenced the current crop of parlor-friendly close-up magic. You’ll learn classic stand-up coin effects like “Trio,” and magic with rings, envelopes, cards and more.
Pages 102 - Hardbound
I have really enjoyed reading the book. There is a lot of coverage in terms of coins and cards (and fruit). Most of the effects are not easy to perform and will take a lot of practice - which is not bad, just keep in mind its more for the intermediate magician. It has the jumbo coin routines in as well which is really cool. Lot of the effects require a jacket etc. So not a lot of impromptu stuff. I really enjoyed the book and I can highly recommend it. Get his videos as well!
There's cards magic, coin magic and even a trick with an orange. It's a fun book to read. Although I don't think I will be doing any of the routines in the book, it has been a great read and great for learning and education. Highly recommended.
