Kaufman & Co.
TIME magazine has dubbed Derek Dingle, "...the greatest card manipulator extant," and honestly, who are we to argue? From his charming television stints with Tom Snyder, Dick Cavett, Barbara Walters, and Mike Douglas to his many contributions to Genii, Apocalypse, The Pallbearer's Review, Epilogue, and Innovations, he’s consistently proven that there's simply no one quite like Derek Dingle.
Now, let’s talk about The Complete Works Of Derek Dingle, his first book in over a decade (don’t worry, we’ve all been waiting). This hefty tome features over 120 items involving cards, coins, and even cigarettes (smoke 'em if you’ve got 'em). It’s really two books in one—about 60 classic routines that have graced the pages of long-gone magazines (and trust me, you’ll want these), alongside around 60 fresh-off-the-press sleights, effects, and routines that have never seen the light of day. Among the hidden gems, you’ll find:
- Four Handlings of The Classic Pass
- Deluxe Double Color-Changing Aces
- Ultra Clean Slot Machine
- Two-Fisted Deck Switch
- World's Fastest Card Under Glass
- Super Floating Card
- Copper Silver Brass (The Silent Steal)
- Post It!
- Inflation
- Complete Torn and Restored Card
- A Case of Kings
- The Restoration Assembly (as performed by Doug Henning on TV)
Every little nuance of technique, every cheeky line of patter, and everything that makes Derek’s magic utterly brilliant is captured by Richard Kaufman, one of magic's most innovative scribes and illustrators. With over 11,000 words and 800 illustrations, the very essence of Dingle's magic is laid bare like never before.
