Fogel card collection

THE BLURB:
It has been 25 years since The Amazing Fogel (1911-1981)
passed away. He was a brilliant showman, magician,
daredevil, mentalist, and illusionist. Nominated as the
best lecturer at the Magic Castle. He performed in
vaudeville, cabaret, cruise ships, and had his own
full-length show, which toured the British Isles. His
telepathic radio broadcasts in England created great
controversy and sensational publicity followed him where
ever he traveled. His bullet catching and Russian roulette
presentation set high marks for mystery and excitement. A
book describing his life and secrets - In Search of the
Sensational: The Secrets of Maurice Fogel - will be released
shortly by the Hermetic Press. Co-authored by Chris Woodward
and Richard Mark.

Here his friends and admirers have provided their own card
effects of the sort that Fogel would have enjoyed. Some of
these were published in a Fogel Tribute in the Linking Ring
Parade July 2006 and are included here with permission of
the creators. Included in this collection is FOGEL'S
favorite close up card routine that he included in his
lecture notes.

MY COMMENTS:
This 16-page, 5.5" x 8.5" booklet is a nice anthology of the
type of card mentalism that Maurice Fogel would have
enjoyed. It contains nothing new in terms of methods,
principles, or routines, but it's solid, practical material
and a worthy tribute to one of the most compelling
personalities in mentalism in magic.
