Description
Sixteen Thumb Tie Gems by Max Andrews is a great booklet for any magician who wants to entertain with a thumb tie. There’s solid instruction and a wealth of ideas for entertaining routines for both children and adults. The thumb binding routines can be used both in the parlor and on stage. It’s easy to learn. A bit of string, laces or ribbon and you’re off and running with a great routine, but as usual, the presentation needs a little work. If you use magic to get your message across to your audience, think about the possibilities of a hopeless situation (the bound magician) that magically or otherwise breaks free of the restraints.
The booklet is quite a few years old, the first edition dates back to 1934, this edition from the 1970s. The booklet is in English, in A5 format, is 50 pages long and has a number of illustrations.
