Jazz Aces: A Milestone in Magic

Jazz Aces made its debut in the magic community in 1971, thanks to Peter Kane’s publication of Another Card Session. This release coincided with the rising popularity of the Elmsley Count among magicians nationwide. As packet tricks flourished, Kane’s routine provided clarity on the transposition elements of Ace Assemblies. Utilizing just eight key cards, his method was straightforward and effective, culminating in a remarkably clean final transposition. Consequently, Jazz Aces quickly spread throughout the magic world, inspiring creative minds to experiment, adapt, and enhance what they believed could be improved.
