Overview:

Ron Bauer has thoroughly updated his 2008 Lecture Notes, providing a unique opportunity for those who missed out previously. If you own the original notes, enjoy a 40% discount on the revised edition!

This expanded booklet features 32 saddle-stitched pages filled with valuable insights and illustrations, organized into three comprehensive sections:

• Part 1: The Wrong Lecture essay, along with a list of several performance pieces from the RBPS series that were demonstrated or discussed.
• Part 2: Do You Have an Act? Ron elaborates on how to craft a cohesive act, covering everything from format to premise, plot outline, and performance script. This method encourages the integration of unrelated tricks you already own, structured with an opening, closing, and transitions, all illustrated with examples. In just one afternoon, you can create a compelling act using The Big Bag of Tricks & The Little Black Hat premise.
• Part 3: Detailed, illustrated instructions for two iconic “no-tell” sleight-of-hand techniques: the Two-card Turnover Technique (TTT) and the Riffle Action Palm. These are the only complete illustrated guides available for these methods. As noted by Charlie Miller in Genii, November 1982, “I must confess that I never even suspected that Ron was turning over the two top cards as one.”

BONUS: A thorough description of an RB exclusive, “Case of the Card in the Case,” which helped him secure the Magician in Residence position at Detroit’s Kenwood Club in 1959. This secret method remained undisclosed until 1989, when it was revealed to Jack McMillen and Paul Chosse, who recognized its surprising effectiveness. You will too!
