However I thinks Card Startlers is quite a good value. Some things may be derivative, many things in magic are, but there are many usable, practical (quite important) effects for the money. I also think Corner of Picadilly is excellent and looks great with the "antique" cards.

I use about 30 of the tricks. If were better skilled, I'd use all 50! JP Reminds me of the preface to RRTCM where a young magician approaches David Devant and says "Mr Devant, I know about 100 tricks with cards, how many do you know?" And Devant replied "About 7". Took me MANY years to realise what it meant. You never, ever need 30 tricks. Learn a few, but learn how to perform them perfectly. Vernon said to learn just ONE trick and do that better than anyone else. Food for thought.

I checked the manual on my DVD player and it wont play PAL DVDs so I'll have to wait until this set becomes available in NTSC. I wrote to Paul Gordon and he informed me that he has a new 2 DVD set that will be coming out very soon and will be distributed by Murphy's. This will be available in NTSC. Roberto Are you sure it won't? Most DVD players can be hacked via the remote to enable multiregion, unless yours is about 20 years old!?!
