ORIGINAL FOREWORD
The effects, methods, and ideas you're about to read were tested under all sorts of
performing conditions. The results were exceptional with cardicians and lay persons
alike.
We titled this manuscript because the effects are based on a classical theme or plot.
Classical Quickie transforms a "wrong" card to a "right" one, but the speed and visibility
of the methods make it different. It's quick, interesting, and mysterious. You have several
methods to choose.
Doubly Ambitious takes the Ambitious plot out of the humdrum class, and mastery of
the Double Transposition effects will give you a sense of happy accomplishment. The
Chameleon Queens inevitably intrigue audiences fascinated by repeated
transformations.
We haven't ignored cardicians on the lookout for new and different techniques. The
Marlo-Curry Change, Open Reverse, D'Amico Spread, and Marlo Pivot-Spread are
destined for future applications. The D'Amico Spread was kept close to the vest for a
decade. Until now it was taught to only a few top cardmen; it has enormous utility for
thinking cardicians.
Our goal is to inspire and inform. Creative magicians will study and use these effects
and moves. They will also ferret out important details that further lead to fresh ideas,
effects, and methods. This is why we're so enthused.
Yours for the best in visual card magic,
Edward Marlo
Carmen D'amico
INTRODUCTION
This reprint is the third edition, revamped along the lines of Full Tilt and Complete
Devilish Miracle . The spirit of the original manuscript is preserved, but the original text
has been revised, reorganized, amended, and emended. We added two more Pivot
Spreads , the Break-Less Curry Change , another version of "Classical Quickie,” and
Schwarzman's "Double Ambitious Kicker” for good measure.
The original, twenty-six-page manuscript was written in 1955-1956 and copyrighted in
1956. Marlo drew the twenty-six drawings that accompanied the text. The booklet has
been out-of-print since the early 70s, although copies occasionally appear on used-book
lists.
Original Manuscript
There were fewer hardcover books published in the 50s. Therefore, when magicians wanted to
publish new material, they either produced small manuscripts or contributed individual items to
existing magic magazines. Because Frances Ireland Marshall supported local magicians and
published their works, Ed Marlo was often tapped to contribute. And over the years, Frances and
Ed enjoyed a symbiotic relationship that was mutually beneficial, starting with Marlo in Spades
(1947) and The Cardician (1953). Earlier, Ireland Magic Company had published Future Classic
(1953) and The Magic Seven (1954). Classical Foursome , in part, was derived from a
presentation Marlo gave the 1954 I.B.M. Convention. He also performed routines from these
books at the same convention.
