The Magic Of Les Albert by More With Les

Description

“Some years ago Les performed an original dice and cards mentalism piece for some friends. They asked that he perform this effect for a gentleman seated across the room. Not knowing who the gentleman was, Les obliged and ultimately baffled Harry Lorayne, at least for a little while! Harry asked permission to write up the routine in Tarbell 7 and named the effect Die-Duction. 

Being a Philly boy like myself, Les used to hang out with Nat Litt, Lee Gray and was Jack Chanin’s doctor for a while. Through the decades, Les honed his skills and created many wonderful routines and some great variations on existing ones. I am delighted to bring to you, More with Les! 

The effects chosen for this dvd are rather simple to execute, fun to perform and have a great reaction from any age audience! We think you’ll enjoy the magical teachings from a very humbled gentleman!”

The Tricks You’ll Learn: 

1. Coin Transference by Les Albert 

Influences and inspirations from Lee Gray and Jack Chanin. Years later a similar routine was published by Paul Chosse.
Copper and silver coins jump back and forth several times; copper coins turn to silver, silver coins turn to copper, and then all returns back to normal. Truly a wonderful effect that is easy to master. You will use this one in your act! 

2. Flushstrated Aces – Routine by Les Albert

Cutting the Aces by Patrick Reymond. Another great variation to a classic four ace production and then some! 

3. Triple Prediction Revisited 

Originally performed by Dai Vernon; made easier by Les.
