The Montreal Transpo: A beautifully disarming two - card transposition from the minds of Acer and Jay Sankey!

This Side Up: An entire deck reverses itself instantly within the confines of a card case! Quartermain: Three coins penetrate a regular deck one by one, dropping into the drinking glass upon which it is resting! Printed Matter: 3 blank cards drawn from a blank - faced deck print visibly into duplicates of 3 different selections. Then, the entire deck prints, and everything can be examined! So good, it was originally slated to appear as a separate manuscript! Madcap: The magician thrusts his finger through a bottle cap, ripping a jagged hole through its center, then restores the cap instantly! Heavy Credit: A credit card is removed from the magicians wallet, the wallet is closed, then the credit card is placed on top of it. In the blink of an eye, the credit card vanishes, only to be found back inside its slot in the wallet! And so much more! 4 collaborational routines with Jay Sankey, 2 with Simon Lovell, new killer sleights, new devious gimmicks, and the list goes on and on! Hardcover, color dust jacket
