"Insightful and inspiring...fun to read...destined to be a classic. I can think of only a few performers a very few who do not NEED this book! It’s packed with more nitty-gritty, real-world advice than a whole shelf of magic books."
- Charles Reynolds
Award-Winning Magic Consultant/Producer

“Finally! A well-written book by someone who has been there and knows what he's talking about. If you are seriously interested in making an impact with mystery entertainment, your money would be so much better spent here than on the latest trick or video. Read it, digest it…let the material inspire you, provoke you and ultimately make you a better performer."

Self-Working Rope Magic book
We have sold this great rope book at our dealers booth for many years, and just realized we never put it on our web site. For centuries, rope tricks have been staples of the magician's repertoire. Surprisingly, many of the best ones are "self-working," meaning they do not require unusual dexterity or long hours of practice. This excellent guidebook, clearly written by Karl Fulves, presents 70 of the best, most amazing rope tricks ever devised. Most are "self working" and a few will require just a bit of practice.
 
After a brief introduction and a section devoted to acquiring and preparing the proper ropes, Karl Fulves begins the book by introducing rope tricks based on simple overhand knots, slip knots and square knots. These are followed by such tricks as "The Vishnu Rope Mystery" and the "Hindu Turban Mystery" in the chapter entitled "Cut-and-Restored Rope." In "Ropes That Think" he demonstrates such fascinating maneuvers as "Liars' Ropes" and "Seance." You'll also learn how to do a one-hand figure eight, perform a "Double-Ring Ceremony" and make an endless chain.
 
Novice magicians as well as veterans can learn these foolproof tricks quickly and easily with Fulves' clearly worded instructions and over 400 step-by-step illustrations. Along with the specifics of how to perform each trick, helpful phrases and bits of patter are provided to help readers present each routine with a professional flourish. Paperbound, 160 5 3/8" by 8 1/2" pages, 423 illustrations. Only $7
