Hiding the Elephant(Softbound)
by Jim Steinmeyer
Jim Steinmeyer's 2003 book is a journey thorough the rich history of magicians, their creations and their quest for the impossible. Starting with Houdini's famous and infamous illusion of making an elephant disappear, Jim traces the various inventions in 'optical conjuring,' from Pepper's Ghost to Tobin's Proteus Cabinet and the famous wonders at Egyptian Hall. The book discusses the creative masters of the art, including David Devant, Charles Morritt and Guy Jarrett. The book has received rave reviews. Publisher's Weekly called it 'a find.' Magician Teller, of Penn and Teller, reviewed it in the New York Times and called it 'a loving celebration,' concluding that 'no author has ever better conveyed magic's joys, terrors and longings.' Published by Carroll and Graf. Author's diagrams and magicians' portraits by William Stout.

One Card Monte
by Jim Steinmeyer's
Effect
Learn In Minutes and Always be Ready! What is One Card Monte? Unlike 3-Card Monte, the famous con game, One Card Monte is not a game of deft skill. Unlike 2-Card Monte, this specially printed card makes the effect simple to handle (you're holding half a card in your hand), and amazing to watch (the spectator retains an unprepared half of a card throughout), incorporating a magical finale which proves just how impossible the game really is! That's why One Card Monte may be the newest, oldest swindle around, nearly perfect in its chicanery!
A joker is torn in halves, and the spectator engages in a "heads or tails" game, trying to guess which half the performer holds in his hands. Every time-time after time-the spectator is wrong! Finally, the performer suggests that they "cheat". He allows the spectator a peek. Still, the spectator guesses wrong as the halves seem to magically change places!

The most amazing game of Three Card Monte ever devised, including the specially-made mechanical cards, step-by-step instructions with photographs, full presentation and patter.
Soft Shoe Monte uses just three jumbo cards (with the requisite Bicycle backs, thank you very much) to pull the proverbial wool over the eyes of your spectators. Through three phases, though it seems as if everything has been explained clearly and that the rules couldn't be any easier to follow, the money card is never where they expect it. Even when you use one hand and two cards, the spectators are completely flummoxed.
This is a trick that plays huge, packs small and packs a punch.
Masterfully deceptive, ingeniously clever and devilishly entertaining, Jim Steinmeyer's Soft Shoe Monte isn't just cheating, it's a complete stand-up routine that makes dishonesty a sure thing.
