No one's gonna try for any of em? Bah humbug!
isn't legerdemain the section where erdnase says that magician's rarely or never shuffle on the table?
Yes Riderback, I took quite a few of these questions from the legerdemain section because most erdnase quizzes are just on the preface and intro!
Here are the answers:
1. Faro, Cassino
2. Ordinary Methods Of Stocking, Locating And Securing
3. Yes, in the Card and Hat
4. Professional Secrets- ‘fledgling’ and ‘cub’
5. Fifth method of blind shuffling.
6. The invisible flight
7. Tricks with pre arranged deck
8. The word pass appears 9 times on page 189
9. (1)Ordinary Methods Of Stocking, Locating And Securing and (2)Stock Shuffle
10. 2nd method of blind shuffling
11. The Top and Bottom Production
12. Second Dealing - “Cutting Stocking”
4 is just fledgling, ignore the cub thing.
