The Amazing World of Mentalism by Burling "Volta" Hull is a cornerstone in the art of mentalism. First published in 1976 by Micky Hades International, this 211-page volume is packed with inventive routines and clever performance techniques, many of which have stood the test of time.
Inside, you'll find intriguing effects like:
- Number-Vision Flight, a subtle method for uncovering a number using a hidden mirror.
- All-Fair Want Ad Test, a word revelation trick centered around strategically placed classified ads.
- Volta Spiro-Predicto, involving a signed playing card and a hidden switch for an impressive prediction.
- Thought Transference Superb, using colored pencils and a swami gimmick for a stunning dual prediction.
Illustrated by Paul Lenti and edited by Stephen Minch, the book is both practical for performers and a historical gem for collectors. It's a vivid glimpse into Hull’s inventive mind and a great resource if you're fascinated by classic mentalism.
