ACE GREENBERG: JACK
MILLER'S HOLD-OUT MIRACLES DVD
Since
Prof. Jack Miller (1884-1962) began performing magic with his Hold-Out he
has fooled many of the best magicians with his routines and techniques. The
original ad for his Hold-Out read, "A revolutionary principle! Fast, clean
and smooth! Never in the history of magic has there been anything like this!
Hand empty at all times—yet balls, silks, cards et all appear and disappear
in full view at the fingertips, as if guided by the invisible hand of Satan
himself!"
On this DVD Alan "Ace" Greenberg, who was a
fan of Prof. Jack Miller, demonstrates and teaches his rendition of three
classic Jack Miller routines using the Hold-Out. You will learn: The Ball,
Silk And Wand Routine, The Jack Miller Egg Bag Routine and The Sensational
Rope Cut. You will also learn how to quickly make a Jack Miller style
Hold-Out using items that can be easily acquired.
Includes archival footage of Jack Miller
performing his Ball, Silk And Wand Routine and his classic Egg Bag Routine.
