Here's the trailer for David Stone's “Happy Lecture” program. 2 hours of show + explanations Lecture + unreleased bonus Stone : LIVE show in Paris and at the Magic Circle  

In the first part of the “Happy Lecture”, you can watch the performance part of the lecture; the tricks will be explained in subsequent videos. We suggest you go and look at the French video, as it's a different recording, even if the tricks are broadly the same.  

Enter the wonderful world of this great magician. Tommy Wonder lectured at the Double Fond on March 24, 1997, which you can enjoy in eight parts. You will discover a fabulous artist, who will share with you extraordinary secrets.  

The magician shows four Jokers... which turn into a Royal Flush in Spades! To buy an ordinary deck of cards click here.  

It's an incredible Three Card Monte, as the 3 cards are each isolated in a holder, making sleight of hand impossible. And yet, the spectator always loses! To buy the trick click here.  

Dominique Duvivier demonstrates a new Eddy Taytelbaum wonder (no explanation). Three small ivory-coloured discs are isolated in a box with three other small gold-coloured discs; the colors are well separated… and yet, in a fraction of a second, the colors mysteriously alternate!  

The magic of sound! Four coins travel one by one through space to appear visually and... "audibly" in a glass!  

The spectator shuffles the deck and thinks of a card under absolute laboratory conditions. The magician puts one card in his pocket. The card is named, the magician takes the card out of his pocket: it's the one! An absolute miracle! To buy an ordinary deck of cards click here.  

The magician shows four cards: the Ace, 2, 3 and 4 of Diamonds. He places the Ace under this small packet and, in a very quick magical gesture, brings it back to the top. The effect is repeated... and in the end, the Ace transforms from Diamonds to Spades! And to top it all off, the cards are transformed into a four of a kind in of Aces! Guaranteed success!

The spectator thinks of a number between 1 and 10. The magician count ten cards, and asks the spectator to recall the card that corresponds to his number. The magician taps the deck... and shows that the card has disappeared! He then asks for a number between 1 and 52... and the chosen card ends up at that number!

I want you to know that it's free choice, it's very clean and it's great. I'll say no more! To buy an ordinary deck of cards click here.  

Dominique Duvivier demonstrates a new Eddy Taytelbaum wonder (no explanation). In a small frame, we see a beaded pattern... which transforms to give the name of the card chosen beforehand. Another “Made in Taytelbaum” gem!

Dai Vernon explained this technique to Howard Hamburg. Dai emphasized that the Optical Move was used as a subtlety, not a trick. For example, one could incorporate the Optical Move in conjunction with a Three Card Monte presentation or within an Oil and Water presentation. To buy a regular deck of cards click here.  

Four pieces of bottle cork magically travel one by one through the table. A superb trick, ideal for the end of a meal!
