A Personal Message

from the Author

This book introduces you to a new art form of mysterious enter-

tainment and reveals many startling effects of amazing impact, the

secrets of which have been carefully guarded.

I look upon demonstrating these miracle effects as distinct from

entertaining with magic, but they are related. There is a rule in con-

juring that definitely applies here. It recognizes that what makes magic

exceptionally entertaining is in the mystery evoked, and this is ac-

complished by the preservation of the secrets.

Treasure these secrets and never expose!

Learn to perform the many "miracles" that will be laid before

you in this text as your personal forte of unique entertainment. Keep

the modus operandi to yourself, apply the presentation of miracles,

as you will be instructed, and you will astonish your audiences.

Some of the effects described in this book call for caution and

care in their execution. Study them thoroughly and present them with

a sincere concern that they may bring real enjoyment to everyone.

Ormond McGill

Introduction

Every performer of mystery would like to be bewitching and

really bewilder their friends with things that look like miracles. I

have been a magician and hypnotist for forty years, and I tell you

professionally you can become the life of the party with magic tricks,

but if you can seem to produce miracles you become a never-to-be-

forgotten event. This volume shows you how to produce such miracles.

These are times when interest in self-realization, ESP, the mystical

and the occult are at a zenith. A mastery of such subjects can bring you

great popularity. Learn to cleverly present the effects explained in

this book and you will truly produce amazing social fun. They are

all produced by legerdemain, and yet as you study the "miracles"

you will be fascinated at how surprisingly profound are the details

of the psychology of their performance. For this is not just a book

on conjuring, it is a new entertainment form of mystery.

Magic is popular entertainment, but conjuring consists of obvious

tricks designed to entertainly mystify. "Miracles," on the other hand,

present exclusive commodities that hark of deep mystery, the un-

known, the weird and unfathomable, that to the spectators lie entirely

beyond the possibility of explanation. Such are the commodities you

will find in this book.

In another respect, "miracles" differ from any work on conjuring.

Prestidigitation calls for manipulation with cleverness of tanible ob-

jects while "miracles" call for manipulation with cleverness of little-

known laws of the mind, body, and science.

How to Produce Miracles is not a text just to read; it is a manual

of instructions to be put to use. You will find it maps a new road to

entertaining; follow it as you will.
