In this issue of Penguin Magic Monthly, we learn about Franz Harary’s first magical creation where he skewered an assistant with neon lightbulbs. Franz breaks down his creative process and the evolution of the effect which happens to be Franz’s first-ever original magic creation!
In this issue, we also include a couple of Joe Rindfleisch’s Rainbow Rubber Bands. These are rubber bands specifically designed for magic tricks and effects. Here are the tricks you will learn using those rubber bands:
Locked and Lifted by Josh Burch
A rubber band is used to lock your fingers together. Then a borrowed ring magically passes through each finger!
Rubber Thruhand by Dan Hauss and Blake Vogt
A rubber band wrapped around the hand passes through each of your fingers one at a time. All you need is a single rubber band, no crazy setups, no difficult moves. This is an entire routine with one rubber band and one rubber band.
The Rubber Transposition by Mathieu Bich with Michael Weber
A rubber band wrapped around a card changes the value of that card. This is a wild card transposition like no other. Created by Mathieu Bich in this issue you learn Michael Weber’s streamlined handling.
Boomerang by Dr. Cyril Thomas
This revolutionary move allows you to do a slew of different rubber band effects and Dr. Cyril Thomas teaches a bunch to get your mind going. Cause a rubber band to vanish, reappear, and penetrate your finger. Cause the band to pass through a finger, bill, or pen. You can even break and restore the band, all with one incredible move.
