Build Your Own Illusions Book

Complete Text & Drawings for 20 Practical Stage Size Magical Tricks

By Jim Sommers

Jim Sommers is a full-time professional magician. He always uses a few illusions in his show, and he has built these himself. His plan in making illusions and writing about them, is based on the theory that many magicians live in small apartments, drive small cars, handle their shows themselves. The tricks in this book will fit into the life-style of these magicians.
