We are excited to present a unique digital version of a rare set of lecture notes by Ricky Smith, originally released last year in a limited run of just 52 copies. After much discussion, we secured permission to offer this valuable resource to our members.

Threeve is an innovative compilation of Ricky’s previous works, enhanced with new material crafted during his performances at the renowned As Is bar. This booklet was tailored for a special appearance in New York, featuring effects and techniques that Ricky felt were essential for that event. As a result, it emphasizes sleight of hand, showcasing various effects, moves, and insights into the punch deal.
