Thought Wings Onward - Eddie Clever

DESCRIPTION

Long out of print and virtually unobtainable for decades! "Thought Wings Onward: Mental Magic for Magicians" was the first book and only major mentalism book written by the brilliant magician and mentalist, Eddie Clever, who was also a long-time contributor to The JINX, Sphinx, Linking Ring, Genii and Tops.

This re-typeset 136-page volume is a complete reprint of Eddie Clever's 1945 2nd Edition. The first part takes the reader through the evolution of magic and mentalism from the earliest times to the modern day and explains why people want to believe in ESP, along with advice on routining and presentation, patter and ethics. This includes an informative chapter on presentation by Herman Weber (Namreh). The second part of "Thought Wings Onward" is dedicated to the performance of mental magic and begins with an outline of "The Mentalist's Kit" - a complete list of standard properties and equipment necessary to the successful performance of many mental problems. You'll also find a rich assortment of truly mind-boggling mental card mysteries based upon subtle methods, plus effects with slates, pellets, book tests, figures and more. There's even a section on two-person card effects, as well as Eddie Clever's own One-Man Mindreading (Q & A) Act, plus Mahendra's Impromptu Mindreading method, as well as lists of additional code and system resources (many available from Trickshop.com) as well as other reference material. Top quality new Trickshop.com edition.
