THE BLURB:
This is the first of many re-releases by Martin Breese
offering books previously published by Harry Stanley.
Al Koran's Professional Presentations is a magical classic
and was first published in 1967 by Harry Stanley at the
Unique Magic Studio. The original publication was marred by
poor photographic reproduction so this new edition from
Martin Breese has illustrations by Paul Griffin based on the
original photographs. Hugh Miller has contributed a
fascinating and lengthy introduction which explains a great
deal about the background of this book which is a 'must' for
every performer's library. "Each effect is a stunner and the
original Koran Medallion and many other now classic effects,
are explained in detail."

MY COMMENTS:
This is a much improved edition of a classic, must-have text
and those improvement are mentioned in the blurb above (new
illustrations, new introduction). Included in this are The
Gold Medallion and Encore Card Stab. All of the contents
are not mentalism, but all are solid presentations by one of
the masters of our art. This is an 80-page hardbound book,
approximately 6.5" x 9".
Here's a list of the contents:
Preface, Professional Presentation, The Gold Medallion, Ring
On Stick, Birthday Card Trick, Book Test, Torn and Restored
Cigarette Paper, Black Magic, Encore Card Stab, Doodles,
Princess Card Trick...Plus, Nap Hand Deal, Double Thought,
Card Prediction, Sure Fire Force, The Flying Ring, The
Pendulum Tells, Double Deal, Note Under Cup
