Lennart Green's
Green Magic
Just how good is Lennart Green? Well, some years ago, he competed at the F.I.S.M. World Championship of Magic. He lost! Why? Because his act was so thoroughly amazing and impossible that the judges accused him of cheating and using trick cards! Fast forward to the next F.I.S.M. Lennart performed the same act, but this time the judges were satisfied that Lennart was indeed using a straight deck. When the dust had settled, it wasn’t even close. They had no choice but to award Lennart Green the title of WORLD CHAMPION MAGICIAN!
Witness the most incredibly original display of card magic ever seen! And then learn how to do it! There is no one else in the world quite like Sweden's Lennart Green. He is a true original, both in life and in magic, and this originality really shines through in his incredible and hilarious performances. He is in constant demand all over the world, including his tour de force appearance on NBC's World's Greatest Magic. Lennart Green does things with a deck of cards no one else has ever done before.

Included in the act are the vanishing glasses, the appearing glass of liquid, the Laser Deal, separation of colors, full deck separation from a shuffled deck and the incredible blindfolded Ace through King production.

Deceptive Perception (featuring The Mirror Count) - No matter which card a spectator selects, it is always the odd card! Very magical and inherently humorous. The Mirror Count is an invaluable utility move.
The One-Two Separation - From an audience-shuffled deck, Lennart magically separates the cards into reds and blacks, incredibly isolating a thought-of card several times along the way.
False Angle Riffle Shuffle - One of the most deceptive false shuffles ever!

2nd Birthday Gift - Lennart recalls a humorous story involving his father wherein a shuffled deck magically becomes separated. For the finale, Lennart produces a full bottle of whisky, which is then opened and a thought-of card is produced from inside!
Impromptu Royal Flush - This routine begins with the production of a shoe from a deck of cards, and then a thought-of card is removed from the shoe! Within this routine is a myriad of effects, including the full separation of a deck, winning poker hands, card productions and more!
One In Fifty-Two Bet - From a shuffled deck, a card is selected and lost. The deck is then repeatedly separated into two piles, with one pile being eliminated each time until only one card is left. It is the selection! This effect is a self-working masterpiece.

Ken Krenzel - Card Classics
Harry Lorayne called Ken Krenzel's ideas, routines and original sleights 'lasting contributions to the art of card magic.' Ken Krenzel has been a respected innovator and leader in the field of sleight-of-hand magic for more than four decades and now shares some of his most powerful and carefully guarded secrets of card magic with you.In this 90-minute visit with Dr. Krenzel and host Gary Ouellet, you'll learn novel ideas, moves and routines guaranteed to warm the heart of any card magic enthusiast.
Volume 1
Featured items include:
Cutting Aces - An Ace turns up on the top of four piles of cards, even though the spectator did the cutting! No palming required!
Chopsticks - Two cards are inserted into the deck to trap a card between them. The card is noted and returned to the center, still clipped between the chopstick cards. Everything is squared yet the chosen card magically appears on top of the deck.
Invisible Reverse - A great Krenzel stratagem that will enable you to secretly reverse one or more cards so they turn up in the middle of the deck.
Natural Double Lift - Krenzel's work on this most essential sleight.
Eerie Spinout - A card pivots out of the deck, apparently of its own volition. A spooky ending for any pick-a-card trick!
Three Plus Three - Three Card Monte Krenzel-style!
The Ultimate Tunnel - Two cards are inserted sideways into the deck face down yet when they emerge from the other side, one card is reversed while the back of the other has changed color!
The Haunted Pack - A new take on a classic of card magic. The performer's hand, while holding the deck, is inserted into a clear plastic bag, which is fasted to his wrist with a rubber band. A spectator is invited to peek at a card while the encased hand riffles through them. The deck, resting on the spectator's palm, then apparently cuts itself at the chosen card. A sure-fire closer!
Volume 2
Featured items include:
Krenzel On The Peek - The complete work on this important utility move. From the free selection to shuffling the deck, every bit of information needed to employ and accomplish this bit of card wizardry is explored including several effects.
Vanishing Collectors - The ultimate version of this classic plot. Three selected cards are placed between the four Aces. The seven-card packet is placed in the middle of the deck and the selections are shown to have vanished. However, just as quickly, all three return. A fast and magical effect!
Light And Heavy Cards - The ultimate version of Bob Ostin's 'Submarine Card.' A high (heavy) card sinks into a packet of four low (light) cards one card at a time. Suddenly, it rises to the top because it's suddenly turned into a light card. The others, of course, have all changed into heavy cards.
The Jack Miller Pass - A great utility item that can be used as a transformation or a control, meticulously explained by Ken.
Transcendental Transpo - A stage illusion in miniature as Ken recreates the classic 'Metamorphosis' illusion with just a deck of cards.
The Magic Bullet - Krenzel's work on another card magic classic. The two interlaced halves of the deck are set at right angles to look like a pistol as the performer causes the selected card to shoot out of its barrel.
New Peek Control - A powerful weapon in any card man's arsenal. Imagine the possibilities of being able to immediately and secretly steal a card from the pack after a spectator has peeked at it. A deceptive piece of card magic with endless possibilities!
Volume 3
Featured items include:
Progressive Aces - Four Aces are dealt onto to the table with three indifferent cards placed on each. The first Ace vanished from its packet to join the second. Then, both vanish from that packet to join the third. Finally, all four Aces end up in the last packet. Also includes Ken's handling of the Mexican Turnover.
Ever So Slowly - A folded card turns inside out. A single-card eye-popping illusion.
All Fair You Do As I Do - A moveless version of this two-deck classic - with absolutely no exchange of the packs!
The Mechanical Reverse - Now you can learn this classic move from its originator. Reverse one or many cards undetectably.
Floating Cut - A mysterious and pretty flourish that will fascinate your spectators.
On The Up And Up - An astounding rising card effect with absolutely no gimmicks!
Mechanical Poker - What begins as a poker demonstration turns into an instantaneous and astounding Ace assembly.
To Indicate The Future - The magician selects a prediction card. The magician selects a prediction card. The spectator has a free selection yet chooses the mate of the performer's card.
Fan Exchange - A versatile utility move with limitless possibilities. A card, fairly displayed in a fan, can be invisibly switched for another.
PRICE $30.00 $25.00 each
Ken Krenzel - The Pass
The Pass has been called magic's most illusive sleight. Usually encountered early in one's development as a card performer, it is soon abandoned as being impossible to do. However, this fundamental sleight is not only possible to do, it can be done invisibly - without your spectators being any the wiser - and Ken Krenzel shows you how.Volume 4
Long considered by knowledgeable cardmen as a master of the Pass and all of its variations, Ken Krenzel now unlocks the secrets of this valuable and versatile sleight for you. In this hour-long video, Ken and host Gary Ouellet cover a variety of topics relating to the Pass and its variants, including:
The Classic Pass; Common Mistakes; The Pass as a Color Change; Ken's Preferred Method; The Jiggle Pass; The Top Card Cover Pass; The Top and Bottom Card Pass; How to Practice the Pass; The Single Card Pass; Reversing a Card with the Single Card Pass; The Sendax Tap Pass; The Hermann Turnover Pass; The Expert Card Technique Pass; The Jack Miller Pass; The KE Pass; The Dribble Pass; The Marlo Dribble Pass; The Louis Histed Pocket Pass (with a Cliff Green Subtlety); Poltergeist; LePaul's Spread Pass; The Leipzig Pass
