Ten routines taken directly from the award-winning repertoire of contemporary magician John van der Put from Alakazam. Coming out Late October 2008!

Looks pretty good to me, any thought folks?

Check out the trailer from below:

Out of the Routine by John van der Put. Routines included:



Smoked - A chosen and marked cigarette rises eerily from a borrowed packet in the spectator's hand before leaping clean out of the pack. Smoking kills, and with this effect, you can too!

Flypaper - ThreeFly with a playing card! A selected card is torn into pieces, one kept by the spectator as a receipt. The remaining three pieces travel visibly piece by piece from one hand to the other at finger tips. The three pieces then magically fuse together, leaving the spectator's receipt matching perfectly (this effect was the centre piece of Johns's IBM award winning act).

E.T.E. - The effect that has fed and clothed the wonderput for the past four years. Incredibly powerful, completely commercial, 104% practical. John uses this at every table, at every gig, everywhere. Get your business card into their hand, increase your tips and blow them away. This one routine is worth many, many times the cost of the DVD.

The Visual Deck Producer - (This is John's original concept) An unfolded and empty card box is shown both sides and assembled, with a little shake a deck of cards audibly appears. Take them out and you're ready to continue the wow.

Outside the box - A thought of card appears under the box in this three-phase routine. A new approach to the misdirection involved means that this is a totally practical routine that you can perform standing, seated, at tables or in walk around.

Losing Face - An incredible all-back ace routine with a borrowed deck. Not one for the beginners, but the experienced card handler will love it.

Plus baby ghosts, bill switches, bonus show footage and much, much more...

Anyone bought it?

Can anyone shed any light on the e.t.e routine?

It's a pretty good dvd.Not a must have if money is tight though.
I thought E.T.A was a quick business card trick but it's not!
Without giving too much away it's basically a card to wallet with a signed bank note ending up in a envelope with your business card.
The baby ghost is a clever way of framing the Bob Read bottle production.
I really like seeing some of the cabaret stand up show at the end.

I saw John lecture on the material from this DVD at a recent convention in the UK and the material is nothing short of excellent. His repeat card under box routine was a personal highlight.

I recently use Martin Sanderson's Signed card in sealed envelope, where the envelope is inside a wallet. So strong!
