Howard Hamburg – Sessions
“One of the best DVDs I have ever seen” – Lucas Zambrowsky
Experience the magic of legendary underground card magician Howard Hamburg as he performs and teaches his personal routines for the first time ever!
Over 60 Years of Magic Experience
Personal Friend of Dai Vernon for over 20 Years
8 Complete Routines Described in Detail
Routines Included:
- Ace, 2, 3, 4: A captivating packet trick featuring Aces with a surprising kicker ending that will astonish your audience. No gaffed cards required—this is a must-see!
- Rising Card: A spectator’s card mysteriously rises from the middle of a deck while still in the card box. Howard adds unique touches to this classic effect, originally shown to him by Tom Craven. Everything is examined before and after the performance—no gimmicks involved!
- Magic Con Revelation: The spectator selects a number of cards from a ribbon spread deck and remembers the card at that position. After shuffling, the magician reveals both the suit and value of the chosen card without any setup—it’s self-working!
- Mystery Card: Two face-up kings flank a mystery card on the table. The spectator freely selects a card, which is then lost in the deck. When the mystery card is revealed, it astonishingly matches the selected card. This can even be signed—no force involved!
- 19: An intriguing twist on a classic effect where the spectator counts cards and remembers one. The magician spells out the card, revealing it as the final card turned over—an impressive revelation!
- Mystical 13: A best-seller at Howard’s lectures across the U.S., this is the performance-only version of the effect.
