Something rare and very special from our archives. In 1985, the legendary Albert Goshman gave a performance for a group of 200 magicians in a secret London venue. By chance, a spectator had one of the first video cameras with him, and was given permission to film the show. He caught lighting in a bottle. To see a magician of this calibre perform the act he has honed over forty years, is a rare opportunity. To have that performance in your own home to watch again and again - is priceless. Albert worked with simple props, a few coins, cards and the occasional sponge ball. To see these items in his hands, with the timing, humor and misdirection, is an experience never to be forgotten. This incredible performance is now available on dvd. Running Time Approximately 40min |

This is one of those tricks that is...well...PERFECT! Here is a trick that the first couple of times you perform it you won't know "why" it works yourself. The effect is stunning to both magicians and lay folks, but it REALLY blows away the non-magicians. The performer displays a one dollar bill with a small "trap door" cut into the middle. Holding the bill front forward, a spectator is asked to hold the small door. Much like Alice had to go through a small door in Wonderland, the magician will send the spectator through the dollar bill to the other side! The performer proceeds to fold the bill closed, then opens it up again. When the bill is unfolded the back of the bill is now facing the spectator who is still holding the "trap door"! The magic happens right before their eyes! It is EASY to do and RESETS automatically. It fits easily in your wallet always ready to go. Nick Brown the inventor is both a terrific magician and a mathematician at Cal Poly. This is a brilliant working of a classic topological theme that will rock on lookers! Comes complete with Pre-Cut Dollar Bill. Running Time Approximately 34min |
