World's Greatest Magic: The Last Trick of Dr. Jacob Daley by L&L Publishing - DVD

\n

Dr. Daley war ein New Yorker Chirurg, aber auch ein begeisterter Amateurregler, der genug Fähigkeiten hatte, um mit vielen Meistern des Handlungsreglers seiner Zeit, wie Dai Vernon, Charlie Miller und Al Baker, Bekanntschaft zu machen. Ein brillanter Innovator, fanden einige seiner ursprünglichen Tricks in Stars of Magic, Annemann's Practical Mental Effects und verschiedenen Zauberzeitschriften ihren Platz.

\n

Bevor er plötzlich und tragisch im Alter von 56 Jahren starb, arbeitete Dr. Daley an einer Transposition der roten Assen mit den schwarzen. Er präsentierte diese Idee Dai Vernon, der sie nach Dales Tod in The Dai Vernon Book of Magic als "The Last Trick of Dr. Jacob Daley" immortallisieren sollte.

\n

Auf diesem DVD-Video treffen Sie sich mit sechs Performern, jeder mit seiner eigenen einzigartigen Interpretation von Dr. Dales Vision. Während alle mit Dales Grundprinzip beginnen - einem Paar Karten, die magisch aneinandergetauscht werden, während ein Zuschauer das andere hält - sehen Sie verschiedene Techniken und Ansätze zur Umsetzung des Effekts. Bill Malone beginnt mit der Version, die er als 18-Jähriger lernte und noch heute auftritt - einfach, direkt und mächtig. Dann nutzt Daryl eine Kartenzählerin, die normalerweise zu einem anderen Effekt assoziiert wird, um die Behandlung zu vereinfachen. Gregory Wilson präsentiert einen zweistufigen Version, die ein unvorbereiteten Zuschauer geschickt vorbereitet, während Dan Harlan seine Zuschauer in eine Vermutungsspiel geführt und dann zum Ziel führt. Schließlich präsentiert Michael Ammar den Effekt in seiner traditionellen Form mit einigen wertvollen Nuancen, während Martin Nash die überraschende Transposition in einem Karten-Spielspräsentation versteckt.

\n

Wenn zwei Objekte magisch aneinandergetauscht werden, ist das sehr erstaunlich. Allerdings sind die Reaktionen noch beeindruckender, wenn es direkt in den Händen des Zuschauers passiert - und mit den großartigen Performungen und klaren Erklärungen auf diesem DVD sind Sie immer bereit, das Unmögliche mit nur vier Spielkarten zu bewirken!

Originale englische Beschreibung

As one goes through the literature of magic, the name of Dr. Jacob Daley crops up quite frequently, particularly in reference to card magic. Dr. Daley was a New York plastic surgeon but also an avid amateur magician who was skillful enough to keep company with many sleight-of-hand legends of the era, including Dai Vernon, Charlie Miller, Al Baker, and many others. Also a brilliant innovator, Dr. Daley's original tricks appeared in Stars of Magic, Annemann's Practical Mental Effects, and many conjuring periodicals. One of the tricks he was working on before his sudden and tragic passing in 1954 at the age of 56 was a transposition of the red Aces with the black ones. He had demonstrated this idea for Dai Vernon who then immortalized it after Daley's passing in The Dai Vernon Book of Magic as The Last Trick of Dr. Jacob Daley.

On this DVD, you'll meet six performers each with their own unique take on Dr. Daley's vision. While all of them begin with Daley's basic - but very strong - premise of a pair of cards magically changing places with another pair held in a spectator's hand, you'll see different techniques and approaches to accomplish the effect. First off, Bill Malone begins with the version he learned when he was 18 years old and still performs to this day - simple, direct and powerful. Then, Daryl utilizes a card count usually associated with a completely different effect to streamline the handling. Gregory Wilson is next with a two-phase version that masterfully sets up an unsuspecting spectator for the astounding transposition while Dan Harlan leads his audience in a guessing game before moving in for the kill. Finally, Michael Ammar presents the effect in its traditional way with some valuable nuances while Martin Nash disguises the startling transposition in a card game presentation.

When two objects magically change places, it's very surprising. However, when it happens right in the spectator's hands, the reactions are spectacular - and with the great performances and clear explanations on this DVD, you'll always be ready to do the impossible with just four playing cards!
