I operate a non-commercial web site at:
http://magicref.tripod.com The magic area has the following features: A magic reference guide for effects such as the Linking Rings, Color Changing Knives, Card to Wallet, Billiard Balls, Cups & Balls, Three Card Monte, and more. The reference page includes lists of many of the videos, books, and products available for that effect. So, for example, if you are interested in the Linking Rings, you can go there to find out what books and videos have linking ring routines in them, and what types of rings are currently available to buy. Another area of the site is the Table of Contents listings. I have placed these in three sections: Books, videos, and products. The books and video sections list the complete contents of particular books and videos (mostly from my collection). When possible, I have added comments about the effects so you can know, for example, that "Williamson's Now Cut that Out" (from Magic of Michael Ammar) is a coin and card routine. I have just made a major update, adding a simple search function. The following book Table of Contents listings have been added: Biow, Dick: The Sponge Ball King's Cups & Balls Carroll, Harrison: The Shell Game Ganson, Lewis: Dai Vernon's Symphony of the Rings Jensen, Jon: Professional Sponge Ball Tricks Volume 1 (changed comment) Jensen, Jon: Professional Sponge Ball Tricks Volume 2 Kaufman, Richard: New York Magic Symposium Collection One Kaufman, Richard: New York Magic Symposium Collection Two Lorayne, Harry: Apocalypse Volumes 6-10 Merrill, R. D.: Merrill's Knife Book Minch, Stephen: New York Magic Symposium Collection Three Minch, Stephen: New York Magic Symposium Collection Four Minch, Stephen: New York Magic Symposium Collection Five Trost, Nick: Expert Gambling Tricks Wolfsberger, Gary: Wolfsberger's Chop Cup and Ball Routine I have updated the Card to Wallet pages. I have split out an article on magic wallets to a separate page. In addition, I have split the Products section of the reference into Switchers (small/large), Loaders (small/large), and Other. This may help you navigate the many selections available when shopping for a magic wallet. I have also updated the Magic Links page, as sites are always changing... Enjoy! As always, comments are welcome. Doug Atkinson |

01/28/02 Update:
This is to announce another update to the magic reference web pages. I have added the 3rd book of the Apocalypse series to the Table of Contents list, along with Bobo's Watch This One!, Brewer's Unexpected Visitors, Allan Hayden's Fancy Ring Routine, Klamm's Ring Routine, Marshall's The Sponge Book, Novak's Jack Miller Linking Rings, and added descriptions to the Jerry Mentzer Card to Wallet contents previously posted. I have updated a few of the Magic Reference listings, including the Cups & Balls, Endless Chain, Linking Rings, Thimbles, Sponge Balls, and some minor changes to the Wallet guide. I have also updated the Magic Links pages. I have started work on the contents for the first Apocalypse book, and just purchased Ouellet's Close Up Illusions, so I will be adding descriptions to that listing soon (at least a few weeks).

This is just to announce another large update to my Magic Reference web site.
I found an old file I got from Jason Y-H almost a year ago that had a bunch of table of contents in it. Also got descriptions from Bill Duncan for Paul Harris' Art of Astonishment Volumes 1 and 2 (he's working on 3). Joe Pecore submitted 6 TOCs (no descriptions). John Pezullo submitted a TOC with descriptions of a Johnny Thompson book. I finally finished my TOC with descriptions of Apocalypse Volumes 1-5, so now all three books are up. I added Simmon's Scotch & Soda, Dime & Penny book as well. Books added include: 2 Bob Brown Books, Michael Close's Workers 1-5, Michael Costello, Giobbi's Card College 1-4, Bob Longe card and coin books, John Pyka's Just Like Magic book, Mark Wilson's Greatest Magic Tricks, Art of Astonishment 1 & 2, Dingle's Deceptions, Card Magic of Hamman, Vernon's Expanded Lecture Notes, Hugard's Mental Miracles with Cards, Minch's Elastrix Vol 2, Steele's Last Word on Card Magic, Ken Simmon's Dime & Penny/Scotch & Soda book Johnny Thompson's Polished Polish Prestidigitation, Apocalypse Book 1 Oh, and I also changed the layout slightly, moving the contents of the magref.htm page to the main magic0.htm page. Enjoy! Doug A. |
