The Magic Gourmet by Lewis Jones.

Three quarters of these effects use playing cards. The rest use coins, bills, books, rubber bands, business cards and
calendars.

• Spectators read each others’ minds.
• A tossed coin will fall heads-up or tails-up, as you wish.
• You beat a gambler who plays by the random throws of two dice — even though the dice are imaginary.
• You demonstrate that you can always tell when a player is bluffing.
• You perform the 4-card Brainwave with four ordinary cards.
• You push cards through the table, one at a time.
• A signed card vanishes and re-appears inside a magazine at any pre-determined page.Anyone thinks of a card from a shuffled deck, then goes to the phone, and is told the card he is thinking of.
• Someone grabs one of your cards and pockets it — what you do? You’ll find out how you can still come out on top.
