Gazzo's recommended reading:

Please note: the following books are not about magic tricks, they're books about advantage card play, i.e. how to cheat at cards. They will all help you polish up your knowledge and your gaming demonstration technique.

If you're a young, up-and-coming card mechanic, and want to learn the art of dealing and all types of crooked gambling techniques, these are the books that Gazzo recommends--HIGHLY RECOMMENDS! We only have a few in stock, so get them while they last.


"Some of the books are $ 3, some are $ 5, and some are $ 8, but value for money it'll be the best under $ 10 you've ever spent. When I was 14 or 15 I did odd jobs and saved up my pocket money to obtain these books. I stayed away from the modern magic books at that time and went for these classics. Rarely talked about and rarely seen, but trust me wannabe card men... THESE are the books that should be in your library... that you should be reading now. No disrespect to other authors or other titles, but in my opinion these are the books." -- Gazzo
  1. Phantom of the Card Table (the original manuscript) by Author Eddie McGuire - This is the book that started it all.
  2. Phantoms of the Card Table by David Britland and Gazzo (Coming Soon to Penguin - More information than the original Phantom. Gazzo was the only student of Walter Irving Scott (the Phantom), and you should read both books together.
  3. Expert at the Card Table (Coming Soon to Penguin) - A must. If you had to sacrifice all other books, this is the one to save. The book is over 100 years old, a lot of the material is dated, and a lot of the material is not. But you need it just for the read. It's the most talked about book in the history of card artifice.
  4. Lessons in Dishonesty - This work came eight to ten years after the Phantom and has one of the best descriptions of the bottom deal ever put in print.
  5. Koschitz's Manual of Useful Information - A lot of the information is still being used today and fooling A LOT of people.
  6. The Rich Uncle from Fiji - Another GREAT BOOK. Just for the three card monte stories and the description of the three card monte. The swindles, etc.
  7. The Little Secrets - Just for the information.
  8. Spotlight on the Card Sharp - Excellent. In my opinion THE BEST description for the classic table hop. Clear-cut illustrations. Nice dice moves.
  9. Master Key and Run-Up Systems - If you're interested in marking and disguising cards, this is a great little booklet. There's some stacking in the back, also.
I intend to update this little library from time to time to try to steer you in the right direction. So keep logging on to the Gazzo Store as it will be updated with other classics if I can locate them.

Look guys, I'm not trying to sell a double bed to the Pope, I'm just trying to lead you in the right direction.

So there you have it in a nutshell. I'm not gonna tell you how to spend your money... it's no skin off me and I've still got somewhere to hide my chewing gum.

But if you do listen to me and purchase some of these books, you will not regret it. - Gazzo (Updated 12.2.05)
