Well, I'll be there, but I doubt meeting me will do anything for you! (In any sense of the word.) We could always say hi, anyway. Anybody else going?

This might not be a bad investment for £120..
Dr A Maze's
"Mental Mystery"
Possibly 1 of the best mental effects ever devised, which we are proud to offer the magical fraternity.
You WILLuse this time and time again! Sensational visual mental magic that sellson sight here in the studio, a sure-firewinner.
Must fr any mentalist will want to add this to their repertoire!!
As hard as the spectator tries, she is unable to care! Her indifference to everything you do is absolutelysolid!

Ive got 2 on order!

Heh heh, Big Cheese, I know where you got that from...

It came to me the other day that, depending on your existing sleight skills, you might do well to invest in the Royal Road to Card Magic and Bobo's Modern Coin Magic. You don't have to go a long way down either of these roads if you don't want to, but basic card and coin handling is necessary for an awful lot of good mentalism.

And yes, I know I'm preaching what I don't actually practise yet. I have the books, though, and plenty of good intentions.

Platform mentalism, eh?

Two A3-size sketch pads from the Works: £1.99 ea = £3.98
Two non-permanent Berol markers: £2.00
100 plain white index cards: £2.50
50 coin envelopes: £2.00
100 Golf Pencils: Free from Ikea

Total: £10.48

Did I miss anything?

Nope, that's about it.

And some nice clothes and a haircut

I can see this leading to a contest of who can put on the most amazing magic show but spend the least!

telepathy in action would be the cheapest mentalism show on earth...
