DESCRIPTION

"Whether you do it or not, whether you ever consider doing it - like it or not, as you please - the linking rings have been, are and will be - possibly forever - one of the greatest magical effects in the entire realm of mystery presentation." - Dariel Fitzkee

In this extremely rare and long out of print manuscript, Dariel Fitzkee takes the reader through "The Old Routine," as performed by magic's pastmasters and explains why the weakest point in that handling is the fact that the key ring is held back by the performer, while the other rings are inspected. Fitzkee goes on to provide over half a dozen methods for secretly adding the key ring after the rings are looked at by the audience. This approach combined with various switches, and linking and unlinking moves; forms the cornerstone of one of the most thoughtfully constructed and impressive ring routines ever conceived - Fitzkee's own "Oriental Rings," which is fully explained. Profusely illustrated, individual moves covered include: The Wrist Count; The Drop Count; The Single Ring Count; An Exchange; The Clash Link; Key Steal; Laurant's Clash; Triple Chain Substitution; How to Remove the Center Ring from the Triple Chain; The Shoulder Drop; The Cascade; Jacob's Ladder; Mora's Improved Ladder; The Hilliard Idea; the Melting Rings; Linking from Arm to Arm; Another Count Idea; Variation with a Locking Key; The Final Count; Double Ring Move; Namreh's Solo Linking; the "Knockout" Finish; and more. 32 pages. This quality Trickshop.com PDF edition has been completely re-typeset from the original mimeographed manuscript. An important treatise on the linking rings by one of magic's most brilliant thinkers.
