This is a good dvd that i am happy i got, this dvd shows you really easy but well thought of and good magic tricks. I'm not much of a card magician myself, but even the card tricks in these dvds are pretty good, easy, fun and concealed well. I would recommend this to anyone who wants variety in their magic field.

Back To Basics
[Verified buyer] by Paul W. Savell from San Antonio, Texas on 01/08/2005 15:00:32
I gave this set the highest rating, because I can't think of a better source for beginning magicians to start their new hobby or career. Nearly all of the tricks contained here are self working, meaning no sleight of hand, just simple misdirection and memorizing the steps of each trick. There are only a couple of exceptions, and even these can be mastered with a few days practice.
As for myself, I was looking for a refresher, just getting back to the basics of magic, before all the gimmicks and fancy props. Jay gave new life to some old childhood favorites, and really inspired me to dig out some of those old magic books from the sixties that have been gathering dust on my shelves. There are some real gems in there that I'm seeing for the first time from a new perspective, no longer the child looking for easy tricks, but now an experienced performer thinking "How can I make this as strong as possible?" For my money I didn't get just the tricks shown here, but a philosophy that will make my magic stronger, and make me a better magician. Well worth it, whether you're a beginner, or an expert in need of humbling.

too expensive for the material
[Verified buyer] by Tom Smith from NJ USA on 11/13/2004 05:02:16
There are some fine effects with clear explanations on these videos. ?) Some of the effects require preparation, some require specific performing conditions (including clothing). Unfortunately, the price is certainly excessive. Think of the library a beginning magician could get for this price! If money is no object, then consider these videos.
and share your thoughts with other magicians!
