SYNOPSIS:
Harry Lorayne wrote Afterthoughts in 1975, while at the center of the thriving New York City magic scene. In typical Lorayne fashion, this book is filled with workable material described in a clear and friendly manner. Highlights include a fan steal, innovative lapping techniques, and the now classic Tally-Ho Ace Locator. Most importantly, there is a substantial exploration of Lorayne’s Ultra Move and the great variety of effects and plots to which it can be applied.ext
