You've seen him perform this on TV!
If you haven't... read on...
In the book "The Final Word on Cards" by Rufus Steele there was an entry titled "Sam & Moe" (author unknown). This was a stunt in which the magician tells a story while turning over cards from the deck, the cards matching the words in the narrative. In itself not a new idea...
Bill Malone took the Sam the Bellhop story and added expert blind shuffles and cuts to it, making real magic out of an amusing story.
Now that was a new idea!
Over the years, he refined it and it became his signature piece.
Eventually he was asked to perform it on the TV show, "The World's Greatest Magic." His electrifying performance was destined to open golden doors of opportunity, and Bill shuffled off to the bank!
After seeing Bill's performance, other magicians have attempted to teach this trick, but they missed the essential ingredients. the real secret was never revealed...
until now...
This DVD uncovers Malone's original dynamics that make the effect flow. A great piece of entertaining card magic for those serious about their comedy!
Bill Malone takes you slowly through each subtlety of the routine, showing you all the bits of business that have made this routine Bill's trademark piece.
He shows the rhythm, the pacing, the timiing, the flourishes, the asides, the energy, the comedy and the attitude that has made Sam The Bellhop one of the most memorable pieces of card magic EVER!
Comes complete with Bill's special bonus effect 'Radical Aces'
