Newspaper Magic by
Gene Anderson and Frances Marshall is a classic text from two experts
in the field. This is a revised edition of that classic book and hopes
to create a resssurgence in the once-popular genre of magic with
newspapers, which are almost as relevant as they were 30 or 40 years
ago. In fact, there are
few things more common, less suspicious or as inexpensive as a
newspaper!
Here's a whole book of tricks to be done with your daily
paper-some created especially for this book, some gathered from around
the world, and some included for completeness sake. This book contains
Gene Anderson's prize-winning routine,
"Extra! Extra!" - a full routine using just a newspaper. Along with it,
you get to learn Gene's well-known handling of the Torn and Restored
Newspaper effect, plus a selection of tricks by Val
Andrews, Eric Hawkesworth, Martin
Gardner and more.
This book is profusely illustrated;
newly edited and enhanced with new photographs, with Chicago magician
and Magic Inc. demonstrator, Ben Whiting photographed showing many of
the effects.
