Calico by Rick Holcombe

Coin magic doesn’t need to be boring. These modern, refined routines from a contemporary coin magic master will shatter every misconception you have about the art.

Calico is the first full-length book from Rick Holcombe, one of the finest modern coin magicians our team has ever seen. This lavishly-illustrated hardback book is more than a decade in the making. It offers something for every skill level and, most importantly, proves that coin magic doesn’t need to be difficult or boring. It’s accessible for all magicians and can captivate any audience.

In total, there are 14 practical, visual, and amazing coin magic routines, as well as a collection of versatile sleights. You’ll enjoy the perfect cross-section of coin magic effects from transpositions to coins-through-table and even interactive effects that happen in their hands.

While many of these effects are visual, they are not the structure-less, eye-candy coin stunts that have become prevalent in the social media era of coin magic. These are fully-fleshed out routines with a concise beginning, middle, and end. Many of them are even designed to flow together into longer form routines that can play for larger audiences.
