"Sol Stone ist eines der größten Schätze der Magie."

\n

"Sol Stone hat den "Touch". Er findet immer die subtilste, täuschende und direkte Methode, um den Eindruck von echter Magie zu erzeugen. Liebhaber reinster Magie werden begeistert sein, dass seine Arbeit nun in diesem wunderschön geschriebenen und illustrierten Buch verfügbar ist."

\n

"Wenn es von Sol Stones Gedanken kommt, wird es großartig für deine Hände sein!"

\n

"Sol Stone schafft intime Wunder, die formell sind, aber verheerend. Ich wünschte, ich wäre mehr wie Sol. Nach dem Meisteren der Magie in diesem Buch könnte ich das vielleicht sein. Sehr empfohlen!"

\n

"Sol Stone war ein außergewöhnlicher Magier mit einer beeindruckenden Geschichte. Er war ein großartiger Freund und Mentor für alle jungen Magiker, die sich im New Yorker Magie-Kreis um ihn herum entwickelten, einschließlich mir. Seine wunderbaren Beiträge zu dem Klassiker Coinmagic sind in den verglichenem Licht der soliden Materialien in diesem Buch verschwindend klein. Der Schlüsselbegriff ist ESSENTIAL. Lass dir dieses Buch nicht entgehen!"

Originale englische Beschreibung

At long last, legendary New York magician Sol Stone's best effects have been amassed into a single volume. Here are more than 50 of Sol's favorite effects -- including some of his most closely-guarded secrets -- all completely updated and rewritten, with the full routines and Sol's newest improvements.

The Essential Sol Stone also shares Sol's life story, from his childlike wonder at experiencing the Thurston show, to his brushes with death in WWII; his use of magic as diplomacy; his years on the faculty of Brooklyn College and his successful private practice as a Clinical Psychologist. Sol's is the unusual case of a man with a thriving professional career who is also an outstanding magician -- not a lightweight, but a true master of the art of entertaining with close-up magic.

The book details all the sleights and subtleties in Sol's arsenal, clearly and in isolation, thereby streamlining and simplifying the learning process. Magicians of all skill levels can learn from this master of intimate illusion.

First softcover edition. Published by Meir Yedid Magic. Written by Stephen Hobbs, edited by Richard Kaufman, 350+ crystal-clear illustrations by Cassidy J. Alexander, 304 pages, 6x9 inch, perfect-bound book. Additional introduction by Meir Yedid.

As a special bonus this book includes Sol Stone's first, and little known, book Patter Punches that was published by Abbotts Magic in 1947 and includes 400+ jokes and one-liners covering 40 subjects.

"Sol Stone is one of magic's greatest treasures."

- Meir Yedid

"Sol Stone was an amazing magician with a storied history. He was a great friend and mentor to all the young magicians growing up around the New York magic scene, including myself. His amazing contributions to the classic book Coinmagic pale with respect to the solid material contained within the Essential Sol Stone. The key word is ESSENTIAL. Get this book!"
