The Complete Walton - Volume 1

Roy Walton, one of the world's most brilliant, creative, and innovative card magicians has brought to us a now classic of card magic, The Complete Walton (Volume 1).

This book features 112 card effects, all utilizing unprepared cards. A dedicated section for sleights allows The Complete Walton to be dubbed "self contained" as any sleights used in tricks that the reader is not particularly familiar with can easily be found.

There are many original plots included throughout this book as well as twists on several classics. All-in-all, there is a wealth of material in this book alone that can help build your repertoire and influence your routines to come!
