Enter the wonderful world of this expert and great magician. Patrick Page lectured at the Double Fond on February 13, 2000, which you can enjoy in eight parts. You will discover a fabulous artist, who will share with you extraordinary secrets.  

The magician shows a small box from which he takes out a red-backed deck of cards; the box is now empty. A spectator is invited to hold the deck in one hand, and her other hand is held by the magician. The magician explains that he is going to transmit a magical effect through the spectator, into the deck of cards! The spectator will then determine a card in a "virtual" blue deck. This card will appear in real life, folded four times in the "Dream Box" which was empty. The red cards are shown, they have all disappeared (i.e. they are blank on each side), except for one card, which is the card chosen by the spectator! Success guaranteed!  

Here is a beautiful handmade genuine leather tool that will allow you to store two foam balls without deforming them. It will allow you to be ready for anything without having to wait for your balls to return to their original shape. The tube fits easily in your pocket and hand, and holds two 2 inch foam balls. Perfect for 2 inch foam balls. Does not fit 1.5 inch foam balls. Available in limited quantities at the Mayette store: Click here  

A very different prediction effect! Cards are rolled, up like little tubes and placed into a bottle... You shake the bottle to shuffle them well, then you have a number freely chosen. The cards are then taken out of the bottle one by one until you get to the chosen number and the card matches your prediction! Only one card comes out, no duplicate and an intriguing object: this magic bottle can rest on a shelf in the living room for example, ready to use. You'll tell me about it!  

As a passionate magic fan, have you been longing for a new "Bloomerie"? Here's your reward for waiting! Gaëtan offers you here the pocket version of a theatrical card trick called "Attaboy", invented by Jack Hugues. In this trick, there was a kind of little cardboard bellboy who held a box in his hands and had another one at his feet. The magician would put all the cards in the bottom box and then put them, one by one, in the top box. When the spectator said "stop", the card on which the magician stopped would match the prediction. Thanks to the creative genius of Gaëtan Bloom, there is no more need for this very clever but very bulky device! It's brilliant, we love it! We are always fascinated by Gaëtan's universe and it's a great honor to be able to share his knowledge with you. Have a great time!  

At the beginning, this flourish by Marlo was only used to turn over a card magically and aesthetically. Dominique Duvivier adapted this move to secretly turn over a Himber Wallet. Very very useful and the applications are multiple!  

The real secret of the charges and appearances! You are on a big stage, in a parlour, or in a close up, surrounded by spectators. The music starts, the eyes are on you. It is then that four very large silks appear in your hands in a fast and fluid way. They are joined together and spread out in the air until the last second: they are empty. You dip your hand into the hearts of the silks and the object of the evening suddenly appears in your hands. This effect can be achieved with or without a partner and was created primarily for the solo performer. You only have access to the performance videos.

The magician shows some banknotes. He explains that one side is the "heads" side of the bill, and the other is the "tails" side. He alternates the heads and tails of every other bill. Miracle! The bills all end up on the same side!

It's a tool more than a trick, and it has had many versions. It is also a principle that will allow you to do many differently themed presentations. Specially designed for stage or parlour magic, with normal and contemporary objects... a notepad and a marker... To be passed around, because there's nothing to see... except success, at the end

A book test with a regular book. And the icing on the cake is that you can guess the card that was chosen by the spectator, and that allowed him to choose the page of the book! A book test with the "Bloom Touch"! This trick is extracted from the DVD " School of Objects - Vol 2 " that you can buy in click here.

It's like the Inexhaustible Vase, but reduced to an everyday object, with many possibilities. It's a very visual running gag. You do a trick, you wipe your forehead with a sponge, and you wring it out in a bucket... the sponge is really full of liquid. You put the sponge back down, perform another trick, and take the sponge one more time to wipe your forehead. Bingo... it's full of water again. Finally, you can take the bucket full of all this water poured, and the liquid turns into confetti! Great if you're also doing a clown act. My dear James Hodges used it for one of his shows at the Maison de la Magie in Blois, France.  

An atypical three-card monte with water. Ideal for children’s shows… but not only that !
