M.I.N.T #1 by Ed Marlo isn’t just another book; it’s the first installment of a two-part treasure trove showcasing the genius of card specialist Ed Marlo as featured in the New TOPS magazine (Marlo In New Tops). Spanning from 1963 to 1968, this compilation brings together 53 of Marlo's most potent creations—a smorgasbord of tricks, sleights, and subtleties that many magicians today would sell their grandmother’s prized possessions to get their hands on. Spoiler alert: some of these gems have become so ingrained in our craft that they might as well be part of the magician's DNA.
Let’s face it—Marlo’s work is like the holy grail for the serious magician, yet his contributions to New TOPS have been collecting dust and commanding crazy prices on the collector’s market. Now, with this freshly minted reprint, you can finally dive into this goldmine of inspiration and equip yourself with Marlo's toolkit of mind-boggling techniques and engaging tricks. It’s time to give your magic a little kick in the pants.
M.I.N.T #1 comes packed with 365 pages of Marlo's finest, meticulously detailing a vast array of ideas, techniques, utility moves, visual sleights, and complete tricks. And worry not about navigating through the text; it’s fully illustrated with over 300 intricate line drawings to guide you through the madness.
Marlo’s creative journey through the art of magic is unparalleled, and M.I.N.T is your exclusive backstage pass to his influential mind. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to peek behind the curtain.
