Magic Tricks

The first third revolved around a trivial method Thayer is well known from books available in book stores and libraries. Perhaps mor importantly, the presentation to being able to use this in a routine is inappropriate for a contemporary audience (woman/audience member putting hand into magician’s pants pockets. repeatedly.).

The last ⅓ even Dan said he had to include eve though it was just a bad trick.

The middle ⅓ (two lessons), however, was useful. There methods for vanishing a silk, and cost effective approaches for vanishing and reappearing a candle, e.g., not using Fantasio. Some good ideas in this section.
