Great review.

[@edblitch3549]

Many vendors have the book back in stock now for around $60. Just ordered mine!

[@EruditeMagic]

Absolutely right, and I've even updated my review for the reprint: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHu6g6ZjpLuXgK8

This book is so thin that I often forget about it on my shelf, but seeing this reminded me about how high quality the material is! Hopefully one day we will have a follow-up book from David Williamson 🙏🏼

[@EruditeMagic]

Say it isn't so! 😱 (But actually, I know exactly what you mean - the thin profile with the black dust jacket makes it difficult to see on a shelf full of colorful books)

[@TheFireArmorer]

I have a love/hate relationship with this book. Had a copy and sold it a couple years back when they were selling for ridiculous money. Bought another copy about year ago, but it belonged to a heavy smoker. It still smells like stale cigarettes and gives me an instant headache when I open it. Serves me right for ever selling my first copy I guess.

[@EruditeMagic]

Sounds like you have a love/hate relationship with smokers...🚭😄

[@stevenleung8684]

maybe put it near some charcoal dehumidifier bag / coffee remains for a few days helps to get rid of the smell

[@EruditeMagic]

Great tip!

[@ScottRSmith1964]

As always, another great review! Thank you!

[@EruditeMagic]

Glad you enjoyed it!

This is becoming my favorite KZbin magic review channel - thanks for the great review. I don’t own this book but love everything about David Williamson.

[@EruditeMagic]

Thank you for your kind comments and for watching! David is definitely one of the best in the biz!

[@lenhibbard4688]

Great review and well done (as always). These reviews are very motivating for me to open up the books on my shelf and get back to work on the treasures they so often contain.

[@EruditeMagic]

Love it, Len! So glad they inspire you to revisit book friends.

[@stevenleung8684]

Williamson also no longer perform the signature peel off because of difficulty to find the material. Thanks for bring up this long out of print book.

[@EruditeMagic]

Thanks for watching!

[@andrecombrinck1454]

Another book along with Greater Magic that I still want in my library. Well at least I have Expert Coin Magic, Paramiracles and The Collected Works of Alex Elmsley 1&2. I know that 2 is OOP.

[@EruditeMagic]

Hope you can find a copy - be sure to check with Don!

[@axyz246]

Excellent review as always! I happen to have a pdf, so I will have to go back and read it again. Side issue: am breathlessly awaiting the final foot of Anneman's 5-foot shelf - as is everyone else...LOL

[@EruditeMagic]

Ha, foot 5 is coming ASAP!

[@i.m.9381]

Hey Thanks for an other great review! I liked the last bit, in wich you said what would be a good price for the book. Maybe you could talk about 'the right places' to look for good secondhand magic books, because I don't know if I am looking at the good places... I think this is going to be on my list as well!

[@EruditeMagic]

I'll have to put some thought into your idea - thanks for sharing!

[@jonahberg9280]

Can you review the secrets of so sato

[@markditullio4575]

Did I miss the 5th foot of Ted Annemann’s Magic Five Foot Shelf?

[@EruditeMagic]

😆 - no, it's coming!!

[@supremekarate1]

when you say commercial magic what does that mean?

[@EruditeMagic]

I mean 'workable' - nothing that would only work in front of the mirror. It has to play well for real audiences 👍

[@DanielMendoza-su3ei]

Can I make another book-review request for "Blomberg Laboratories" if possible? The book title makes it sound like the materials within require a lot of 'self-made gaffs.' I happened to see that you had this book in another book video of yours, thanks! I have also read some mixed reviews of this on Magic Cafe : )

[@EruditeMagic]

I'll put it on the list!

[@DanielMendoza-su3ei]

@@EruditeMagic THANK YOU!!

[@EruditeMagic]

Timing could be off, but I'm always open to suggestions - thanks for your note 👍

It’s just black tape, thin black tape. Hmmmm I’ll look for it and get back to you.

[@frankrecinos7158]

What kind?

[@themcmc]

All talk and not one performance of any of the effects?

[@EruditeMagic]

Nope, that's not what I do on my channel. You might like Dan Trix, though. He often shares performances
