CARDBOARD by Patrick Redford

As a follow up to Patrick G. Redford’s best-selling magic book, Applesauce, comes Cardboard.

Patrick explores over a dozen effects and techniques with a shuffled deck to create powerful and memorable magic. Featuring “Double Thought,” in which two cards are thought of and two numbers are thought of, and both cards later appear at those exact numbers. It’s an impossible hands-off card miracle that will slay your audience. You’ll learn several impossible card controls including the star effect, “Haystack,” where a card is thought of from a small shuffled group of cards and mixed back into the deck. The deck is then made into ten piles and the performer not only identifies which pile the thought-of card is in, but also the exact card and its location in the small stack – all without ever looking through any faces of the cards! This one has fooled the best of the best and will quickly become one of your working favorites. There’s so much packed into this booklet you’ll find yourself reading and re-reading it over and over again — always coming away with something new.

Survive the Zombie Apocalypse, perform impossible card locations, become a human scale with pinpoint accuracy, and learn how to exhibit complete shuffle tracking control over a deck of cards. Cardboard is yet another book of easy-to-do, professional card magic from the fertile mind of Patrick G. Redford.
