U.F. "Gen" Grant (1901-1978) was a brilliant creator of magic who invented many iconic effects throughout his life. Revised, enlarged and illustrated by Gene Gloye, these are the kind of assorted comedy bits and pieces that you can add to any group of tricks to build up your show, add laughs, and fill in for time. Chapters cover: Cards, Comedy Props, Using Volunteer Assistants, Mental Magic Gags, Gag Bits of Business, Stunts with an Assistant or Plant, Patter, More Stunts, For the Master of Ceremonies, For Magicians, Politicking With Magic.
