I think it is on John Mendoza's DVD titled "My Best, Vol. One". Is it the routine where the reds and blacks separate? John's routine is good, although I have never seen the original Paul Currie routine.

I think the Cups and balls is the way to go, it takes a little bit more practice but when you have a routine down, oh, the reactions and entertainment you can give is superb. Not only is the c&b a classic, you learn the basic principles of magic thru them as well.

I know this post is a little old, but can I vote for a Svengali Deck? Yeah, it may be cliche. But IMHO for a lay audience it can really be entertaining. Do a Svengali routine, drop the deck in your pocket, do something else -coins, cups whatever, then go back to your pocket and deck switch. Proceed to then blow them away with Out of This World. Just my two cents.
BTW - the original Paul Curry Out of this World routine is published in his book Magician's Magic. It is still in print and widely available. |

Do something that always works, in other words a self working one. There are some great tricks in Magic with Cards which are self working and are ideal for a beginner.

There's a very extensive and thorough review of the set here in The Magic Café: https://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/view......orum=109 . The set seems to be more of a compilation of utilities and packet tricks rather than a bunch of plastic crap. It also comes with Mr. Lim's instructions and tutorials on DVD. |

I agree that it is very much the exception to the rule as far as magic sets go. It doesn't come with the usual, brightly coloured, cheap-and-nasty, toy-like tricks that most magic kits have. Instead it has genuinely useful gimmicks, and easy-to-perform visual magic. It also comes with solid video instruction from Shin himself (streaming video online, not DVD). Definitely recommended. |
