Flashback to the early 20th century: legendary bar magician Matt Schulien casually threw a deck of cards against the wall of his tavern, accidentally creating a monumental moment in magic history. Who knew that sticking a spectator's selection to the ceiling would become a hallmark of card magic? Since then, ambitious magicians have taken it up a notch—literally—and have been wowing audiences with one of the few card tricks that boasts an undeniable "wow" factor.
In this volume, you'll meet five modern-day maestros who’ve put their own spins on the
Card On Ceiling. Doc Eason shares his secrets for playing to larger crowds, enveloping everyone in the magic. J. C. Wagner spills the beans on his go-to handling that’s a staple among bar magicians (including Doc, who might have borrowed a thing or two). Karl Norman reflects on the version he perfected over 40 years at the legendary Forks Hotel, while Michael Ammar shares his own twist that helped cement his status in the magic community. And let’s not forget Scotty York, who brings his unique blend of humor and clever presentation, along with a nifty gimmick to simplify the trick.
