John Archer - The Handy Lecture
PDF
"...fully illustrated and packed with practical cabaret and stage material with a few close-up items thrown in along the way from the star of Sky's Undercover Magic" - That's what it said in the ad, and so it is!
The whimsical cover featuring a dandy John Archer as Desperate Dan lets you know straight away that this is going to be a little bit different. John's a very funny man but these lecture notes reveal a more serious side as he explains in detail some of his favourite magic. Although written as 'lecture notes' at 50 pages it feels more like a book and really stands up on its own (in other words you don't have to see the lecture first to understand what's going on).
