details...

Conjuring Tricks, author and exact date unknown. I was seven years old when we moved house into an old and crumbling vicarage. I found a set of magic tricks in a box in the attic. Most of the tricks are long-since lost or broken since I was only a small boy at the time, but I still have the instruction book. I have scanned every page.

Page 4: The Bead Trick and The Magic Seed Barrel.

I have no clue what the bead trick was. The seed barrel was another one ofthese hidden compartment tricks. [$]

Page 7: The Mysterious Coins.

Presumably these were coins that were silver on one side and gold on the other; I don’t think I ever saw them. Or maybe they were cardboard discs. [more...] [$]

Page 4: The Changing Card and The Heart Trick.

I don’t remember the Changing Card; I think I saw the Heart Trick and didn’t understand it at all. [$]
