Mentalism

What is OUTPUT? . . . OUTPUT is a monthly book of primarily card magic with a focus on classic and off-beat effects and methods. This is Steve’s outlet for his ongoing OUTPUT of unique magic, with contributions from his magic friends. There is always a heavy dose of Marlo, with a focus on Ed’s unpublished work. Steve brings his extensive knowledge to the task and so OUTPUT often features a deep-dive history from the 1950’s-1990’s, connecting the dots to the Marlo library.

This 16 page manuscript details not only the effect in full, but the preferred handling of each of the authors. Suitable for both close-up and stage, Once Removed has been used extensively by the authors, who have finally decided to tip this work after fooling magicians and layfolk alike for quite some time.
