Mentalissimo - john bannon
 

Description

"This stuff is fun to read, and fun to do."
- Max Maven

In Mentalissimo, John Bannon brings his talents to bear on mentalism and mental magic with playing cards. "I do card tricks, have a keen interest in mentalism and am a fanatic about the construction of magic tricks. For me, a book like this is just what I look for. All of the above; in one place."

You can expect: Squeaky-clean revelations of truly thought-of cards. Demonstrations of psychic ability that can't be explained simply as coincidence. Clear, commercial prediction systems. Offbeat treatments of classic mental effects from "Add-a-Number" to "Out of This World."

Thirty items are described and explained in twenty-one chapters. Almost all use regular unprepared cards. Two require a common gaffed card. Most are impromptu. A couple require a more-than-minimal stack. A few rely on easily-made external props. One employs a pack of ESP symbol cards. All are intelligently explained and laced with commentary and discussion. Come for the thought-provoking card effects; stay for the conversation.

"The more I study card magic and mentalism, the more impressed I am with John Bannon. His "lean and mean" style of construction and execution inspires me. His routines are hard hitting and fun to perform."
- Jeff McBride
