A pure sleight-of-hand, card routine with instructions ands illustrated pages The performer holds a deck of cards in his left hand, with the bottom card (Three of Diamonds), facing the audience. With the right hand, he takes the Three-Spot away from the deck and with a throwing motion toward the breast pocket, causes the card to vanish. Deck in left hand is then fanned, and the Magician reaches into his breast pocket and removes the Three of Diamonds. This card is added to the pack which is then shuffled and fanned in the left hand. A wave of the left hand and a silk handkerchief suddenly appears into view from behind the fan of cards.

The deck is held in the right hand as the left hand reaches into the air and produces a fan of cards, after which six cards are produced, one at a time, at the tips of the right fingers. When it appears that nothing else could possibly be. concealed in the right hand, another card appears at the finger tips for
a surprise finish!

John D. Pomeroy's Early

MAGIC IN SEATTLE

John D. Pomeroy was fully devoted to magic and he knew the history of how magic developed and grew with the modernization of rhe west coast, especially in the state of Washington in general and the city of Seattle in particular.

Anyone interested in the beginnings of magic in Seattle would gain a lot of information here. As time went on, every major magic show came to Seattle as it was a busy port to the rest of the world. This is a truly historical work worth knowing.
