I bought my Nemo Rising Cards from Joe Stevens in Las Vegas.
For what it's worth, Joe Stevens used to do a very nice version of this trick, too! But I certainly would have LOVED to have Met Ken Brooke and see him do this trick. I'm convinced that the man was a genius...his instructions, I think, are the best I've ever seen in the business. Having said that, I took a tip from Del Ray's performance when I used my Anverdi Jumbo Card rise by having the spectator to command the card to rise, stop, lean to the left, etc., and also from Martin Lewis' performances by having the last card rise as the wrong card, then visibly change it to the right one. I think the "kicker" at the end helps a lot. Audiences LOVE watching the rising cards! |

Just for an interesting note, Roy Johnson also uses the Anverdi Jumbo Rising Cards for when he performed to his groups at very close proximity to them. Roy designed the routine to look exactly like his handling of the Nemo Rising Cards. (Note: See original instructions.) It was so identical that I was totally "fooled", until he told me. The houlette he used was different, to add to the puzzlement for me.

I have just purchased an original Nero rising card but unfortunately the instructions have long been lost. Does anybody have a set they could possibly copy for me.
I know it’s a long shot but would be great to find a set Thanks Rowland |

Rowland-
Do yourself a favor... BUY Gene Anderson's book ! Not only is the Nemo Rising cards explained in greater detail tan anywhere else, but he has another 20 or so routines that are definitive versions of classic effects. This book has my highest endorsement

EVERYTHING is explained!
Gene was a scientist in his real life and takes the same exacting pains to take ALL with exact precision.

I contacted Gene last week. What a thoroughly nice man. He was so helpful. I am trying to find the book in the uk but it seems nobody has it. Can’t even find a second hand copy so it looks like I will have to buy it from him. I have no problem paying for the the book it’s just the $45 shipping cost that is painful, and then on top of that there is the possible customs charge.

I started doing this routine about a year ago.
BUT... in my quest to be UNIQUE, I decided to forego traditional playing cards and have my own set made up. Each card has different relationships written on them (ie SON, DAUGHTER, HUSBAND, AUNT, WIFE, COMPLETE STRANGER, etc...) My idea was to have the cards sent into the audience and have two volunteers take out cards that best described their relationship to the volunteer onstage. BIG MISTAKE. I learned that it takes a long time for the average audience member to sift through the cards and find the appropriate one. It takes even longer for TWO people to do it. Yeah, so there's a routine I had to retire. |
