perhaps, one of the most influential magic books ever.
Many of its routines have now become classics in magic,
including Flight of the Paper Balls, Helicopter Card,
Coins Through The Table, Slydini’s Knotted Silks, The
Paper Balls in the Hat and others. In this brand new edi-
tion, Dr. Gene Matsuura went through the text of Ganson’s book with Tony Slydini and took
careful notes as Slydini made valuable additions and observations based on his experience

PART ONE: A VOYAGE TO THE REAL WORLD. Working behind a bar, for an audience of real people,
Eugene Burger makes it clear why he's one of the world’s most celebrated close-up artists. Then, he’s joined by
David Parr to analyze these time-tested routines from Eugene’s actual performing repertoire, such as his ultra-
commercial approach to the Sponge Balls (including the “real work” on breaking them in). You’ll be delighted
at the clever method behind David Solomon’s Cutting Ten.You’ll be impressed at how much excitement
Eugene can derive from a Simple Spelling card trick. You’ll be drawn in by his presentation for Alan
Ackerman’s Gemini Money gambling routine. And, for the first time, Eugene and David reveal two astonishing
new methods for a U. F. Grant classic (which can now be done using the new-style bills—or any type of cur-
rency) in The 21st Century Bill Transposition.
PART TWO: A VOYAGE TO THE UNREAL WORLD. Eugene Burger is joined by Jeff McBride to explore COMPOSED & DIRECTED
close-up magic that is offbeat, whimsical, and decidedly strange. This journey begins with a Flash Spirit
Message, as efficient a link to the ghostly realm as you could ever ask for. In Double Reverse, a classic Walter
BY MAX MAVEN
Gibson effect is raised from a card trick into an evocative piece of intimate Spirit Theater (that includes
Eugene’s personal handling on Glorpy). Eugene’s version of Al Baker’s The Card in the Hat leads into a
detailed discussion of advanced thread technique. Jeff then shows what happens when Mark Twain meets
Robert Neale, as he performs and explains The Five Gifts of Life. A darker humor is on display when Eugene
teaches Phil Goldstein’s The Wagers of Sin. And finally, there’s a thorough analysis of Matt Schulien’s superb
Corner in the Glass.
PART THREE: A VOYAGE TO THE INNER WORLD. If you’ve ever dreamed of a private session with
Eugene Burger, now’s your chance. On this tape it’s just the two of you, as Eugene speaks his mind and opens
up his heart. Sinology, a simple coin routine, becomes a parable about self discovery. In his version of Lin
Searles’ Cannibals, Eugene combines sly humor with impressive technical chops that will fool you, until he
explains it. In New Match Stickler, a Milbourne Christopher item usually thrown away as a bar stunt becomes
a powerful mystery. More ominous themes are considered in Robert Neale’s daring Last Dream. To conclude
this encounter, Eugene discusses the thinking that led to the creation of two of his most requested routines,
which he also performs: The Inquisition, his wickedly dark take on Roy Walton’s Card Warp, and
Shakespearean Thread (or, as Max Maven insists on calling it, “Vishnu Doesn’t Live Here Anymore”), an
evocative new presentation for the Hindu Thread.
