This eBook compiles all the mentalism-related ‘Hidden Gems’ from previous releases. If you’ve purchased the general Hidden Gems editions, there’s no need to buy this book.

A must-read for aspiring mind readers – researched by Mark Elsdon.

After receiving numerous requests over the past few years, it’s finally here!

Discover a collection of extraordinary mentalism tricks and routines. This compilation gathers incredible material from Mark’s acclaimed Hidden Gems series, now available in one comprehensive edition, featuring a dozen brand new Hidden Gems.

This edition reveals fantastic insights from renowned creators such as Smith, Dyne, McLeod, Minch, Jermay, Neale, Dunford, Weber, Marsh, Steinmeyer, Murray, Turner, Spelmann, Rowland, Richardson, Karmilovich, Knepper, Cushman, and Chandaue, among many others.

Mark shares one of the most impactful direct mind-reading techniques, multiple powerful openers for both close-up and stage mentalism performances, his favorite recent purchase, and the top five impromptu mentalism tricks that are currently under the radar.

These tricks exemplify the essence of ‘hidden in print’. Each entry details the trick, its source, why Mark values it, and why you should explore it. He describes the effect, sometimes the presentation, but NEVER the method.

Many tricks are found in books you likely already own (or should), some in accessible magazines, and a few may require a deeper search through SHM/MagicWeek/eBay. Enjoy the hunt!

If you seek ELITE MATERIAL that remains undiscovered by others, this eBook is a treasure trove. Praise for Hidden Gems:

“I confess that I would prefer to NOT recommend this ebook, purely for selfish reasons. It’s a treasure chest that will unlock your library and send you racing to fill in any gaps. And I just had to buy a book I didn’t have. This ebook is going to cost me a fortune!” – R. Paul Wilson

“Mark has curated a spectacular collection! I am like a kid in a candy store with so many effects and routines I haven’t even heard of before. The knowledge and insight that has gone into Hidden Gems is incredible.” – Bro Gilbert

“In magic, part of our daily ritual is to look for hidden gems, the real treasures. Mark Elsdon is one of the best-read ‘treasure’ hunters I know. When he points out a vein of treasure, I explore. In this book, Mark doesn’t teach tricks he’s created; instead, he highlights sources and effects worth exploring. His taste in material is exceptional, allowing you to skip the filler and discover true miracles. If you love finding great magic, this book will serve as your treasure map.” – Tim Trono

“Let’s face it; we all know that some of the best stuff is hiding in plain sight. We have all missed a beauty that was staring us right in the face. Imagine a book that does an incredible job of giving the savvy magician a second look at that killer material. Mark’s Hidden Gems does exactly that! A collection of high-impact magic, cherry-picked to only provide the best of the best. Polish up these Hidden Gems; they are true treasures. So is Mark’s ebook.” – Jonathan Friedman

“Whether you are looking for unique new pieces for your professional repertoire or killer effects for your next magic session, Mark has done the hard work for you! There’s gold in these pages from some of the greatest minds in magic. I’m equally thrilled and annoyed that this collection has been put together; it’s a must-buy.” – James Went

“Choosing new material is tough as you have to sift through a lot of mediocre content to find even a single worthy piece. But not anymore – Mark has done all the hard (and costly!) work for us, allowing us to focus on the fantastic, overlooked effects that no one else is performing! Hidden Gems has my highest recommendation!” – Iain Moran

“Mark Elsdon is my go-to source for hidden gems … he scours magic literature and uncovers ideas that inspire me to look harder and closer.” – Andi Gladwin

“I have mixed feelings – I suspect Mark has made things a bit too easy. The reader is guided effortlessly towards material that many performers have painstakingly researched to incorporate into their repertoires. It’s all there on a plate for you! This is a fantastic repository of great magic. Hidden Gems is offered at an excellent price for what could be a lifetime’s worth of killer material! A MUST BUY!” – Dave Jones
