Packet Trick Instructions

Postby Rennie » February 6th, 2021, 12:18 pm

I have purchased over the years numerous magic collections and for some reason packet tricks are in there, but no instructions.
If anyone could help me with a copy of instructions for the following it would really be appreciated. I will pay for any expenses.

1 - Twisting the Aces by Nick Trost (4 gimmicked cards)
2 - Color Blind by Emerson & West (10 cards with letters one side and colored diamonds on reverse)
3 - Time Out by Phil Goldstein (5 cards, 3 blank, 1 with watch and 1 with broken watch)
4 - 3 Card Routine by Bert Allerton ( 3 cards, 1 KS, 1 AH, 1 DF Ace on one side King on the other)

Thanks in advance,
Rennie

I don't know about "3 Card Routine" by Bert Allerton. It sounds like the cards could be used for "The Two Card Trick" from "Bert Allerton's The Close-up Magician".
Not the one who created the Potter Index.

Received Time Out, Thanks Evan
Jackpot, you are correct about Allerton's trick, but don't have the book. Thanks

Does Twisting the Aces by Nick Trost appear in any of his books? If so, I may be able to locate it.

Twisting the Acrs with gimmick cards are not in any books.
