Vol. 1 - PREMISE
David focuses on different elements of presentation. In Volume One, the element of premise is explored as he presents a variety of effects that highlight this facet of a magical performance.
Each of these stunning effects is performed in front of a live audience and then fully explained:
-
Look at Me, I'm Special (unpublished) - A Four-Ace production that leads to an ultra-clean moment of magic.
-
Carried Away (from Constant Fooling) - An any-deck, any time incredible transportation.
-
Eight Ball (from Constant Fooling)- Ink slides off a playing card and forms itself into an eight ball!
-
Tenacious Climber (from Constant Fooling)- This entertaining approach to the Ambitious Card plot leads to a climax that will fool all.
-
Coins Through the Table (from Constant Fooling)- Stand-up versions of this plot are few and far between...and this one is a killer.
-
Exhibit "A" (from Penumbra) - A stunning handling of Hamman's Signed Card plot. Magic just seems to happen.
-
Sum of the Parts (from Constant Fooling)- A spectator shuffles a deck and selects a card, then a demonstration of playing card mathematics (and visual changes) ensues in which cards "add up," finally totaling the selection!
-
Shred of Proof (from Constant Fooling)- An eerie revelation with dozens of applications.
-
My Best Friend (from Close-Up & Personal) - A chop cup routine with a difference...in the form of a small mouse.
-
Chink-A-Drink (from Constant Fooling) - The classic assembly with a logical kicker.
Vol. 2 - POWER
Power is the focus of Volume Two. In this collection of routines, David explores various ways power can be defined in a performance of magic, lending a subtle variety to a series of presentations.
Each of these stunning effects is performed in front of a live audience and then fully explained:
-
Isolated Force (from Close-Up & Personal) - A unique and convincing force of a card in which the back of the card is never seen.
-
Half & Half (from Star Quality) - A signed card changes color in an atypical fashion.
-
Perfectly Oiled (from Star Quality) - A very clear Oil & Water effect that builds to a no-moves climax.
-
Face It, You've Changed (from Constant Fooling) - A spectator selects a card, examines it and signs it. Its back changes color...in spite of the fact that the magician never touches the card.
-
An Incredible Journey (from Star Quality) - A signed card invisibly travels into a card box that has been placed inside the magician's jacket pocket.
-
Not Quite Dead / Haunted Pack (unpublished) - A demonstration of supernatural forces that uses a classic method in a novel way.
-
A Magic Lesson (from Constant Fooling) - A tongue-in-cheek explanation of Card to Pocket leads to an inexplicable magical climax involving a spectator's signature.
-
Holding On (from Star Quality & Constant Fooling) - A playing card is signed. The magician stands and reaches under the table with an empty hand. When he presses on the deck, the selection passes through the table.
-
Prophecy Pack (dealer item, details of construction explained) - This is the incredible hands-off prediction effect Regal used to fool all and sundry when he moved to the West Coast.
-
Penny for Your Thoughts (from Close-Up & Personal) - A glass of pennies is examined-the dates are different. The spectator selects a penny while the performer's back is turned, yet the performer tells him the date.
-
Fill in the Blank Transpo (from Constant Fooling) - One of Regal's current signature pieces-a clear and spotlessly clean transposition of two playing cards.
Vol. 3 - PARTICIPATION
This volume deals with effects in which audience participation is stressed. The element of participation creates a unique dynamic in a performance of magic and can create a sense of community.
Each of these stunning effects is performed in front of a live audience and then fully explained:
-
Lucky Seven (from Constant Fooling) - An incredible self-working prediction effect, presented complete with Regal's latest touches.

-
Off-Color Thought (from Constant Fooling) - A visually perfect switch with myriad applications.

Mystic Poker (from Close-Up & Personal) - A new plot. The spectator draws any card that can be found in a royal flush onto a blank card...then the magician magically prints the other cards needed to fill out the hand!
