Carpenter's Conceptions The Innovative Magic of Jack Carpenter Written by Jamie MastersonOne of the greatest cardmen on the planet has released a new hardbound book of never before published material! Jack Carpenter has been a creative force among magic's inner circle for over three decades and his creations are used by top flight magicians around the world. Beginning with his landmark book Modus Operandi released in 1992, Jack has published a wealth of material in his books Expert Portfolio's 1 and 2, along with his videos and many contributions to magic magazines and books. The quality of Jack's work has garnered him an international reputation as one of magic's true card experts. His material is highly sought after by card workers and those "In the know." Steve Forte has called Jack, "The Cardman's Cardman. A True Master." Carpenter's Conceptions is Jack's largest release to date and consists of material that he has created and used over the last fifteen years along with a few items that he has been keeping to himself for even longer than that. All of the material in the book has never been published. Inside Carpenter's Conceptions you will find elegantly crafted card magic routines and sleights as well as magic with other items such as coins, rope and even fire. There are 35 items (28routines and 7 sleights) all taught in exquisite detail and illustrated with over 200 photographs. There is magic that happens on the card table and magic that can be performed walk-around without a table. The routines are all magician foolers and layman dazzlers. Complete presentations for a majority of the routines have been included in the descriptions just as Jack performs them. There are no pipe dreams here... all of the material consists of top quality workers performed with a regular pack of playing cards and common objects. Allan Ackerman states in the Foreword that the 452 Control in this book is one of the best multiple shifts ever created, and this one item alone is worth the price of the book... the method is so ingenious and different from other techniques that have appeared in print. Among the many gems in the book you will learn... Final Jazz Aces - Classic magic with a surprise "Double Climax." Jack has fooled many knowledgeable magicians with this routine; it takes them completely by surprise. No-Palm Queens to Pocket - Four queens travel to the performer's pocket without any palming at all. A clever and entertaining routine that is easy to do yet will fool mostly everyone
