Eight + One! by Paul A. Lelekis eBook DOWNLOAD

Build a varied close-up set with Eight + One!, a downloadable eBook by Paul A. Lelekis. Its eight effects and bonus bring together comedy, card magic, a book test, and a two-person mind-reading routine, giving you several different ways to engage an audience.

• Napkin and cup routines: Perform a torn-and-restored napkin effect with a surprise kicker, or a hilarious one-cup routine modeled after Sen. Clark Crandall’s Cups & Balls routine.
• Oil and Water: Add an easy-to-do version of this close-up card effect to your repertoire.
• Card revelations: “Name Any Card” is described as self-working, while “SNAP!” combines a rising-card moment with a visibly changing revelation and is completely impromptu.
• More audience surprises: The eBook includes an impromptu book test, John Murray’s self-working “Four Card Coincidence,” and “Telepathic Spectator,” in which a husband and wife each experience a thought-reading moment.
• Bonus effect: Learn a doubly signed, two-card transposition described as simple, quick, and easy to do.

Lelekis also teaches the “Simplex Bottom Reversal” and “The Lost Peek,” concepts described as useful beyond the routines in which they appear. Keep this digital close-up collection on hand when you want to move from a funny moment to an impossible-looking card or mind-reading effect.
