Ed Marlo 

His snap change?

I thought it was shit.

Watch slydini

He was great but he gets a lot of credit for things he did not invent. He had a habit of finding things before they were lost. He and Frank Garcia both.

Dai vernon was the best

Referring to Marlo?

miamimagicians magician miami I think the commentator is Ricky Jay

I thought it was bill malone also based on the strong Chicago accent.

We stand on his shoulders. No one is nearly as inventive

It's actually the "bomb door" - I leave it for you to determine why it is called that.

Marco S why would you say that Vernon is better than Marlo?

@@Lightman0169 You may not be familiar with Vernon - while Marlo is highly regarded (to say the least), the majority of card handlers regard The Professor as the pound for pound greatest

Chris Holden I think Marlo had much more output than Vernon- over 5000 entries on Denis Behr archive. I just wish I could have seen Vernon in his prime. He (Vernon) remarked that he had never seen anything like the D’amico second deal and then Marlo has D’amico do it over and over again in front of him so he could work out the mechanics himself.

Marlo was flashy. Like a theater actor. Vernon was natural. Like a movie actor. Both were masters with slightly different approaches (no pun intended). I would also add Martin Nash to the podium, his gambling routines seem unreal.

Yes there is unfortunately, I no longer have it but should I come across it again I will post it.

@@MR_MAG1C oh ok, that's a shame. I'll keep my fingers crossed for now then.

The poster will provide it if he happens to have the rest of the footage he said.

Yes, Marlo meant it to mean a magician who exclusively performs card magic, of which I am proud to be!

Yes

I need to double check it but i belive it was in expert at the card table.

@@MR_MAG1C This is just great. I'm getting something that looks similar with my thumb ending up on the other side of the card, but I still can't fathom how to do this ending on edge. Anyways, I should've purchased EATCT years ago. Sort of my own dumb fault for waiting this long, lol. Ordering it now. I'll try to get it in with my forces unseen purchase from penguin before they ship

@@MR_MAG1C It’s in Modern Magic by Professor Hoffman (1876). Otherwise known as the Hellis change where it’s attributed to Robert Hellis. Marlo also performed it in front of a crowd to a stunning applause if you can get ahold of his infamous “Secret Lecture”. He doesn’t explain it. It’s on page 31 “to change a card-fourth method”.

Pastor Peewee yes to name a few books, m.i.n.t vol 1 and 2, marlo without tears, revolutionary card techniqe

@@MR_MAG1C nice list, the last book is amazing, a lifetime of material.

Gonçalves TV you can find it in Arthur Buckley card control page 119

You can also find it in Ed Marlo's Revolutionary Card Technique, in the "Seconds, Centers, and Bottoms Part 2" section.

Do you know the name of it?

You look at his thumb before performing tricks and as he lies on the cards and after the trick, then you will understand the secret.

Is it like snap change.. but with the thumb?

Simple does not necessarily mean easy.

In Marlo's publications :)

@@BeeEatingOrchid which one? And what is it called

@@Frank-un5gn seconds, centers, and bottoms. You can buy it on its own, or buy his Revolutionary Card Technique. It's in there too along with so much more. It's quite pricey, but it's worth every penny.

@@Frank-un5gn Marlo published three extensive manuscripts. They are entitled Seconds, Centers, and Bottoms Parts 1-3 individually. They form part of the Revolutionary Card Technique series which is available for $70 from select magic retailers, the entire bound collection!

Jason Simonds If this footage is from the Prime Time Marlo DVD, it should be Jon Racherbaumer, but the voice also sounds a bit like Danny Korem.

No man is Bill Malone narrating this video

Jason Simonds It's Dave Solomon, one of Ed Marlo's students and friends.

Yes it can be done with a flap, but this one here is completely impromptu

@@MR_MAG1C WOW

Ah! The legendary Hellis change! Edit: 2:57… the obscure Eidetic Slide from the forgotten but wonderful tome, the Card Magic of Edward Marlo. Brilliant. Edit 4:29… the legendary Triple Buckle from The Cardician (1953). If you can’t tell, I’m a Marlophile!
