His book is on my wish list. The trick at the 4-6 minute mark made me
smile till it hurt. If you know what Jimmy is known for, it is a deft
use of the gimmick.

He digs something out of his pocket at 4:00, but I've learned not to
guess randomly.

Does anyone know the names of the 3 tricks in the video or what the name of
the book is that has these tricks listed?

Thanks for any info,

Dave

I'm advertising a book i'm trying to bid on thank you! ...but since I
started, it's called "the magic of jimmy grippo", most of the time the
price is $200 and up for it since it is no longer in print. I mainly
want it not for the effects, but because he was also once a street
magician as well. For the $200 price range, i'd rather get something
signed by vernon or something worth that amount.

Jimmy is a master at card indexing (as demonstrated). Kenton Knepper
has a great effect in print called Klossal Killer that fits in your
wallet that kills & falls along the same principle.

Thanks Al for your feedback and recommendations!

Thanks for that. For that price, I'll add it to my collection. So
that IF I ever get around to learning card magic...
