THE EXPERT AT THE CARD TABLE - ANNOTATED




THE EXPERT AT THE CARD TABLE - ANNOTATED


The Expert at the Card Table is the foundation upon which modern card magic is based. 

It contains some of the most perfectly constructed sleights in all of card magic. Even more important are the profound lessons in the real secrets of magic: naturalness, attention to detail, uniformity of action, and the psychology of deception. The methods of S.W. Erdnase have been studied, practiced and written about by countless card experts. 

One person who spent a lifetime studying every detail of this landmark book is Darwin Ortiz. The copious notes he kept while meticulously dissecting each move and every sentence of The Expert form the basis for The Annotated Erdnase. His numerous annotations shed new light on the history of the various moves and effects, provide technical insight into their proper execution, give cross references for further reading, and include hundreds of obscure, but fascinating, bits of information.

Regardless of your level of expertise or specific area of interest, The Annotated Erdnase is a wonderful enhancement to the greatest book ever written on sleight of hand with cards.

Approximately: 270 pages - Hardbound with dust jacket. Available now at Tin City Magic.
