With this facsimile of a book by Harry Houdini from 1922, prospective illusionists can learn from one of the largest magicians in the world. The master of the pocket tricks explains how to captivate the audience with the simplest props - paper sheets. Houdini's easily understandable instructions, many of them with illustrations, are accessible to readers of all age and ability to age.
The manual consists of four parts: paper tricks, paper folds, paper tears and paper puzzles. The first part reveals the secrets behind magic tricks such as "The Dancing Sail" and "Ghost Communication". The following sections offer instructions on the folding of a bird, an ox frog, a hat and other traditional origami models as well as for careful tearing of paper to create a ladder, a fifteen star, a chain of dancing skeletons and other complicated figures. The last part presents several challenging paper puzzles based on geometric shapes.
Discover this page from Houdini that you have not yet known and learn some great magic at the same time!
