{"product_id":"mint-1-by-edward-marlo-book-1","title":"MINT #1 by Edward Marlo - Book","description":"\u003cp\u003eM.I.N.T #1 by Ed Marlo isn’t just another book; it’s the first half of a two-part treasure trove from the legendary card master himself, compiled from his golden period in the New TOPS magazine (Marlo In New Tops). This hefty tome gathers 53 of Marlo's brainchildren from 1963 to 1968, showcasing a dazzling array of tricks, sleights, and clever nuances that have become the bread and butter of magicians everywhere (and no, I’m not talking about your local baker).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor those in the know, Marlo’s name is often bandied about in the same breath as the greats, but his classic contributions to the New TOPS have been as elusive as a good parking spot in London—hard to find and pricey when you do. Thankfully, this reprint offers a fabulous chance for aspiring magicians to dive into Marlo's mind and start wielding his crafty techniques and engaging tricks to impress their mates (or at least distract them from your questionable card skills).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith 365 pages packed to the brim with 53 contributions, M.I.N.T #1 is a veritable buffet of ideas, techniques, utility moves, visual sleights, and fully fleshed-out tricks. And let’s not forget the eye-candy—over 300 detailed line drawings to guide you through the magic (because sometimes words just don’t cut it).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you want to peek into the genius of one of magic’s finest, M.I.N.T is the book you didn’t know you needed (but trust me, you do).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublisher's Preface: Louis Falanga\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: Jon Racherbaumer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForeword: Edward Marlo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1963\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJune: Clipped Thought\u003cbr\u003eJuly: Cardician Makes Good\u003cbr\u003eAugust: Remember And Forget\u003cbr\u003eSeptember: The Incomplete Faro\u003cbr\u003eOctober: A Table Pass\u003cbr\u003eNovember: The Homing Card\u003cbr\u003eDecember: Gad - About Aces\u003cbr\u003eTRICK ANNUAL: Original Homing Card Routine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1964\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJanuary: Preview To A Chapter\u003cbr\u003eFebruary: Vanishing Aces And Face Up Switch \u0026amp; Effect\u003cbr\u003eMarch: The Blue Thought\u003cbr\u003eApril: Atfus \/ Mental Reverse III\u003cbr\u003eMay (Bonus): Marlo's Coin Pass\u003cbr\u003eMay: Mindreading Queen\u003cbr\u003eJune: The Mental Sandwich\u003cbr\u003eJuly: The Fufu Switch\u003cbr\u003eAugust: A Flourish To Reverse\u003cbr\u003eSeptember: Marlo's Princess\u003cbr\u003eOctober: After The Princess\u003cbr\u003eNovember: Siamese Strangers\u003cbr\u003eDecember: Incomplete Faro Control\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1965\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJanuary: Incomplete Faro\/Multiple Peeks\u003cbr\u003eFebruary: Packet Switches\u003cbr\u003eMarch: A Problem Posed\u003cbr\u003eApril: Card And Coins\u003cbr\u003eMay: Glide Variation\u003cbr\u003eJune: Table Reverse And Effect\u003cbr\u003eAugust: Impromptu Coin And Cards\u003cbr\u003eSeptember: As An Opener\u003cbr\u003eOctober: A Multiple Effect\u003cbr\u003eNovember: The Olram Subtlety\u003cbr\u003eDecember: Marlo's Aces\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1966\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJanuary: New Palm Position\u003cbr\u003eFebruary: The M.P.
