The Openers and the Closers of your magic shows are the most important aspect of magical entertainment...they dictate how your audiences will perceive you...then and later.

Many photographs and a video are included explaining every detail of Paul's excitingly magical routines!

Paul's "The not so invisible deck" routine is not what you think. It is his very special routine that he has used as his "closer" for over 20 years. The patter is hilarious...wait until you see the real secret behind this routine. All patter and many nuances of performance are included.

The introduction contains sage advice for everyone. Openers and Closers 1 was a runaway hit having stayed at #1 on the Hot List at Lybrary.com, for a long time. Now...Paul Lelekis has come up with his latest smash hit e-book, Openers and Closers 2 with even more, "real-world" magic that will thrill your spectators. Paul has spent many years "in the trenches" performing.

Routines in this e-book:

1) VANISHING CARD BOX OPENER - Paul may be the first person to have come up with this incredible opening routine, having created it in the 1980s. A box of cards is brought out. The cards are removed from the box...and the box suddenly vanishes. The performer calmly removes the card box from his pocket...again. Everything is examinable and the cards can then be used for your next trick - you are clean. (Pictures explain every detail of this remarkable routine.)

2) DO YOU HAVE ESP? - A beautiful, multi-stage routine that is packed full of comedy and revelations that "hits you hard" and ends with a final shocker. Easy to do. This is what a truly professional opening routine looks like...and learn a technique that will elevate your performance.

3) ELIMINATION - This routine uses Paul's own little-known, sleight, that will fool all magicians! This beautiful multi-phase, impromptu transposition does not seem possible, yet everything is examinable. Fool all of the guys at your next magic meeting with this beauty.

4) Martin Gardner's 4 ACE TRICK - Paul presents two different versions of this almost "self-working" bombshell. Use one version as an Opener...or...use Paul's second version as an incomprehensible Closer. You're going to love this.

5) NO! NOT THAT CARD! - Another "side-splitting" routine that can be used as an Opener or a Closer. The Spectator keeps picking the wrong card. Spectator participation is what makes this routine so much fun, but also learn about the "fine" points of spectator management. Plus a bonus at the end.

6) 8-CARD BRAINWAVE - Learn the real method of performing this minor miracle. Included video explains the entire routine. Want an exciting opener with a beautiful subtlety taught to Paul by the late, great Dary. Nick Trost "wowed" the magic world with this routine, but now, with Daryl Easton's superb subtlety, you will even fool magicians.

7) THE NOT SO INVISIBLE DECK ROUTINE - Here's a routine Paul has 'played' for real audiences, hundreds and hundreds of times! This vastly improved routine takes away the three major concerns of the traditional "Invisible Deck" routine. Oh you didn't 'know' there were any concerns? Paul explains the history and every aspect of this routine, providing you with one of the GREATEST CLOSERS of all time!
