Annotated erdnase review4/1/2024 Oddly enough, Hofzinser was not one to disperse secrets lightly. Most (american) cardmen point to Erdnase & his " Expert at the Card Table" as "The Bible" of card magic. I doubt that bible would have existed if it weren't for the efforts of Hofzinser and his contemporary. Heck, it's quite likely without his efforts, we wouldn't even have 'close-up' magic as it exists today. He was one of the first to bring it into the light as a form of sophisticated entertainment. J ohann Nepomuk Hofsinzer was one of the most important magi in the history of our art. I've never been a super-historian, but if there is anyone (aside from Erdnase) that I'd like to know more about: Hofzinser is the man. Only 900 sets were published and I couldn't be happier to be able to read one of them ) I'm a bit concerned that the set is to 'heady' to be enjoyed: but I'm going to do my best. Kudos to "Magic Christian" (the original composer of this collection) Hermetic Press and the Conjuring Arts Research Center for releasing this set in English.
