If you’re serious about your magic, this video series should be your go-to reference, no matter where you stand on the skill spectrum.
ACE ASSEMBLIES
Ah, the classic Ace Assembly! Originally credited to the French magician Conus, this timeless effect has been delighting audiences since 1853. Picture this: four Aces dealt face down, three random cards on each, and somehow, those Aces all come together in one pile. Magicians have been putting their own spins on this routine for over a century, and the variations just keep getting better.
VOLUME 3
In this download, you’ll get to hang with six magicians who each bring their unique flavor to the Ace Assembly plot. First up is Bill Malone with a clean assembly that’s surprisingly breezy to perform—don’t let that fool you, though, it packs a punch! Darwin Ortiz follows with a slick update of his classic routine, where the Aces vanish and reappear under increasingly absurd conditions. Then, we’ve got Petrick (of Petrick and Mia fame) showcasing an elegant Ace assembly peppered with visual flair, while Paul Wilson rolls in with an assembly routine that feels like magic on fast-forward. Next, David Regal takes it up a notch with an even quicker assembly, and to cap it all off, Harry Lorayne brings us a turbocharged version of a classic from Peter Kane. Talk about a lineup!
As Hugard and Braue wrote in their classic book, Expert Card Technique, “Of all the tricks with playing cards, as much thought has been expended on the Four Ace trick as on any other—and the performers 'and performances' you'll watch and learn from on this download are ample evidence why.”
