Book Description
The routine begins with a spectator naming their favorite playing card. A unique deck of transparent plastic playing cards is then introduced. The cards are removed from their plastic case and openly shown to the audience. The spectator's favorite card is removed from the pack and signed across the back; the signature can be seen from both sides of the playing card because of the see-through nature of the card. The spectator's signed card is then isolated inside the deck's clear plastic box, where it is kept in full view throughout the routine. The performer then names and removes his favorite playing card from the pack. He signs the back of it and then openly displays his card to the audience. That card is handed face down to the spectator, who is asked to wave it back and forth over the sealed card case containing the audience member's signed card. Upon turning the card over, the audience sees that the volunteer is now holding his own favorite card, but it now has the performer's signature on it. When the box is opened, the magician's favorite card is found inside, bearing the spectator's signature. Not only have the cards magically transposed, but so have the two signatures. Both cards can be freely examined by the audience.***NOTE: This version of "My Signature Effect" sold on Amazon is just the printed manuscript and will require additional purchases.

Book Description
KAHNCEPTUAL CARD MAGIC: More Deceptive Practices With Playing Cards is a NEW 140 page photo-illustrated book featuring ten extraordinary card effects for magicians with intermediate to advanced card handling skills. All of the routines in this book are practical, real world performance pieces. Eighty-two photos accompany the text to highlight all of the intricate handling details. IN-THE-HANDS OPEN PREDICTION (IHOP) A two deck solution to Paul Curry''s classic Open Prediction Problem with an unexpected ending that the audience will never see coming. An inexplicable miracle! PREDICTED CARD AT THOUGHT OF NUMBER A fun and easy-to-do prediction. The magician is somehow able to foresee which playing card a spectator will shuffle to a secretly thought of number. NAME, RANK AND SERIAL NUMBER Eight random cards are removed from a deck. After a series of thorough shuffles by both the magician and the audience, the order of the cards miraculously matches the serial number on a bill that was laying on the table the entire time. YOU DID DO-IT-YOURSELF A classic of magic with a twist! A spectator locates his freely chosen card by stabbing an indifferent card into the deck while the cards are held behind his back. The selection then proves to be the only odd backed card in the entire deck. No forces! THE QUEEN''S LIE DETECTOR Martin Gardner''s classic Lie Speller plot revisited with a brilliant kicker prediction. Incorporates ideas of J.K. Hartman, Marty Kane and Jim Steinmeyer. THE JOKE''S ON YOU (REDUX) An extremely visual card transposition meets Brother John Hamman''s Mystery Card plot. TRIPLE WHAMMY In a uncanny display of skill, the magician instantly cuts to the mates of three free spectator selections in a truly shuffled deck. A TRIBUTE TO HENRY A.W. NOMIS The classic Stop Trick revisited. A spectator shuffles a red deck and a card of their choice is placed sight unseen into the card box. A blue deck is then introduced and a second spectator stops on a random card as they are turned face up. Both selections match! At no time does the performer look at the faces of the cards. (TO THE FOURTH POWER)4 As a deck is dealt face up, four mystery cards are left face down in the pack at the spectator''s direction. These four selections ultimately match the magician''s prediction. Is it a quadruple coincidence or is it fate? The climax will answer that question definitively. ZIPPED UP & LOCKED AWAY A card is freely selected, signed and lost in the deck. The cards are dribbled onto a sealed zipper-style storage bag where the signed selection defies the laws of physics ending up INSIDE the sealed bag. Solid through solid. This is the original! WHAT MAGICIANS ARE SAYING ABOUT KAHNCEPTUAL CARD MAGIC AND SCOTT KAHN: "Scott is one of my favorite session mates. As a result, I''ve been able to see these ideas develop and grow into their current form. They started off strong and kept getting better and better. This book is a treat for card workers looking for practical, powerful magic." - Caleb Wiles "Powerful, take no prisoners card magic. If this were 1692, Scott would surely be on trial for witchcraft." - Michael Kaminskas "Kahn''s approach to magic is similar to that of his medical career, prescribing solutions that breathe new life into classic card magic." - John Guastaferro "Your In-The-Hands Open Prediction is a wonderful way of turning the plot upside down. I was severely fooled! In fact, I wish I had seen all of the routines in this book first before reading them to experience being totally fooled!" - Tomas Blomberg "Scott Kahn is a must study for those into card magic. He tackles a wide range of plots with a unique approach." - Ryan Schlutz
