The "exact" protocol of the "Collectors" principle as taught to Dominique by Derek Dingle is scrupulously respected here, namely: - The four Aces are placed face up aside at the beginning of the trick. - Three cards are chosen, and are lost in the deck. - The four Aces are put on top of the deck. - And without shuffling or any other manipulation, the Aces "collect" the chosen cards, i.e. they are found face down in between the four face up aces! Dominique Duvivier's version of Derek Dingle's trick is a true miracle! To buy a “Regular Bicycle Rider Deck” click here.  

An “Ace Leader” routine unlike any other since the Aces are represented by four 8 of Spades, and the indifferent cards by Jokers. The 8s join the "8 Leader" one by one, and at the end, the four 8 of Spades transform into four Aces, thus fully justifying the name of the trick as "Ace Leader"! And the icing on the cake is that at the end of the trick, the entire deck becomes Jokers! To buy: - a deck with 52 identical cards click here. - single cards click here.  

The magician displays his deck of cards, and eight rather special cards: four of them are blank-faced, and on the face of each of the other four ones, a bumblebee is drawn. One by one, the bumblebees change places with the blank cards, and at the end, the magician strikes the packet of bumblebees... which all end up crushed! The icing on the cake: all the cards in the deck are now shown, and they're all crushed bumblebees! Everything is handed out for examination.  

A very special Ace Assembly routine: instead of putting any three cards on top of each Ace, only one card is used in all: a Joker! Clean and so simple! To buy an ordinary deck of cards click here.  

The special feature of this version of McDonald Aces is that all the cards are shown face-up AND back-up. McDonald Aces is a great classic of card magic: the four Aces are displayed on the table, each covered by three other cards. One by one, the Aces disappear from the three packets, and gather under the fourth Ace. But in the end, the Aces disappear from the leading pack and find themselves back under their original pack!

A direct Ace Assembly... with a surprising climax! The four aces are displayed in a row on the table. Three indifferent cards are shown, and placed on top of the Leader Ace. Instantly, the Aces are shown to have gathered together with this leader Ace... and when these Aces are displayed on the table, a King is revealed... the other three cards are then turned face up to reveal a four of a kind in Kings: there are no more Aces, nor any other cards! And the icing on the cake is that these four kings are instantly transformed back into four aces! Everything is handed out for examination... a true miracle!

Another visual curiosity, designed by Dominique Duvivier in 2003 based on an effect by Edward Marlo. The magician cuts the deck into four piles, and the four Aces that have been previously set aside are clearly put down on top of each pile. The piles are stacked on top of each other to reform the deck... and the four aces rise to the top! To buy: - some regular cards click here. - an ordinary deck of cards click here.  

A different handling of "Clean Assembly", already described on this platform. A very clean Ace Assembly routine. The four Aces are laid out on the table in a row, with three indifferent cards placed on top of each Ace. The first three Aces disappear from their respective packets and collect in the last packet. Neat and tidy! To buy a “Regular Bicycle Rider Deck” click here.  

Four thieves, symbolized by the Aces, pass one by one through the deck, then when they are caught by the gendarmes (symbolized by the cards in the rest of the deck), vanish... and gather in the packet chosen by the spectator! The saga of the gendarmes and the thieves, "Renélys style"!
