Occasionally an intelligent and thought-provoking work is released to the magic community. On those rare occasions, the craft comes closer to assaying the beauty of play. It exhorts the reader to think more deeply. This is such a work and we are honoured to bring it to you.
Pasteboard Perpensions is the first major work to be released by Wesley James, a name that has long been respected by the underground. His work is not a nonsense, restatement or reworking of existing treatments. Each of the twenty-five items in this book adds something new, significantly improved, refined or innovative and powerful to the arsenal of card magic. Among them are six new four-as-four Elmsley-style counts.These counts and the way they are presented are sure to change the techniques used in today's deck effects and should also encourage the creation of new processes. A review of Marlo's Diminishing Lift Switch (BRBD-DLS) and Hamman's improved Gemini Move (The Virgo Move) should revive and stimulate new interest in these extremely flexible techniques. Wesley begins with the powerful, humorous and highly commercial flow of his professional work The Impeccable Follow-Up.
For those interested in completely new techniques, you will find Fake Reverse Reverse, Drop Cop Switch and T-Ace-T Test of great interest.
Interested in heavy but practical techniques? Try Torrales Bottom Deal and Sure Theory Second Deal.If you're creative, then Assemblies - A Categorical Perspective is a must-read. It should provide a starting point for the myriad of Assembly/Disassembly effects that have so far gone unexplored.
All in all, Pasteboard Perpensions is destined to be and has been one of the seminal works of the 1990s.
