Jumbo Coin Magic by Graham Kirk.
Not cheap at around £20, for 150 pages. Try magic books by post but it might cost more. Smaller dealers may stock it. It was published four years ago , limited to 1500 copies and may not be reprinted. Eddie |

Gary Kurtz has some nice handlings in his "Unexplainable Acts" book, and also in the "Let's Get Flurious" video.

Mr. Wethington said what I was going to say. Gary Kurtz does a lot of great stuff. Also, there is a manuscript out called "Coin Vanish" with a great jumbo coin routine in it called "Jumbolahoya." The routine was invented by Dan Watkins and you can watch him perform it on http://www.coinvanish.com, his website.

I second the recommendation for the Kurtz video - excellent routining.
I also recommend David Stone's second video. He does some Jumbo coin work on that, inspired by Kurtz. Caught him lecturing yesterday in London - a bit older now ( about 27! ), but just as smooth and a really great lecture. Cheers, shafique |

Regarding the Graham Kirl book- If you manage to get a copy it will be a collectors piece oneday. However I found the diagrams poor and the book very hard to learn from.
It does however go over some great 'make yourself' jumbo gaffs etc. M@t |

I've only seen Gary Kurtz perform his routine on the A-1 video from some years back. I dunno, it always seemed way too busy for me. It was happening so fast that it was impossible to digest what was happening. Yes, I know the routine was called Flurious. Left me cold.
Misty Like a Dream, on the other hand is very beautiful routining which is very easy to follow. I do like Garrett Thomas' routine Big Coin Little Purse in regards to Jumbo Coin routines. Ed |

There is a small pamphlet called "Super Cents - Trix with Giant Pennies" by Jerry Mentzer that you might want to check out!

Close-up FISM champion Simo Aalto has tons of stuff with jumbo and super coins. Most of them are published in his lecture notes, but I am not sure if they are sold by any dealers.

I like Jumbo coin manipulation too. What do you think of McBride's "World Class Manipulation" #3 about this subject ?

A while back in Genii, when Jim Patton was writing "Magicana", he published Wes James' C/S/B finale, ending with the barehanded production of three jumbo coins (one S, one B, one C, natch.) Excellent example of sound management, if you can find it.
