Dear Mr. Fantasy by John Bannon

Dear Mr. Fantasy is all about card tricks. There are so many ingenious items in this book! Everything uses unprepared cards, so "purists" out there will definitely enjoy it. John Bannon's rendition of Henry Christ's "Fabulous Four Ace Routine" is noteworthy, and it ends with a royal flush kicker (or other cards of your choice). There is also a totally impossible and clean card location described that combines several ideas for maximum effect. You'd think all brilliant effects was enough, but that's not the case. Bannon has grouped all routines in sets, combining items that work well together. Yup; he even did the routining for you! The book has something for everyone; assemblies, spectator cuts the aces, mind reading, impossible locations and sandwich routines. We highly recommend it! It contains nineteen card tricks with unprepared cards, most completely impromptu.  200 pages, hardcover, and illustrated with over 70 photographs. This is an out of print 1st edition.
