Hugard, Jean (Editor)

Encyclopedia of Card Tricks

Faber, London, 1981. Reprint, Softcover. Good Condition. 9780571070176 Jean Hugard was known and revered throughout the world of magic as a practical performer, inventor and author. This new revised edition of his ‘Encyclopaedia of Card Tricks’ is one of the most complete works on card miracles, and will be welcomed by professional and amateur conjurers, for it is a leading textbook on a specialized branch of magic. The masters of magic, drawn from all parts of the world, contributed many of their finest effects to this book, and their generosity has been rewarded by this new production of the Encyclopaedia. Much patience and time was spent by Hugard in assuring himself that each of the many effects described was practical in performance, and that the explanations of each effect would be readily assimilated by the student. It is therefore possible for the reader of this book, even if untrained in the subtleties required by a skilled magician, to follow the early examples and, with a minimum of practice, to acquire sufficient knowledge to present an exhibition of simple tricks. An experienced performer with a profound knowledge of card magic will possess, in Hugard's work, a brilliant book of reference which will enable him to revive many splendid tricks, the details of which he may have forgotten.

Unfortunately, in the case of this type of work, it could fall into the wrong hands. However, the person who is merely curious will soon find this work tiresome and unpalatable, leaving the true enthusiast to explore the teasing allure of the lock. This unique animal, who has the ingenuity and patience to follow through the fascinating study, will be rewarded in the knowledge that he is in the elite company that I salute in this work. For the people who argue that books on the subject should not be written, I would like to point out that a villain who wishes to gain entry into a property is happier with a brick than a pick."; an informative booklet covering many types of locks & the tools & techniques used to open them; 27 pages.
