Advanced Card Sleights by Alexander Day

Looking back, it seems to me that I have been a magician for most of my life. I've worked in a magic shop demonstrating close up magic on a daily basis for over 16 years. I grew up with many of the classic close up magic books such as; Expert at the Table, Arthur Budsley's Card Control, Royal Road to Card Magic, Revolutionary Card Technique and others. I found them to contain very good techniques but sometimes they are a bit hard to read and may not have as many illustrations as a student may like.

What I have done in this book is to compile many of these techniques along with many advanced techniques complete with simplified descriptions and more complete illustrations of my own.

This book may not be for beginning magicians who would benefit from more basic books, however, students with basic skills may find this beneficial to their advancement in card magic.
