A close-up magic case is a portable kit that contains various props and supplies needed for performing close-up magic tricks. These cases are specifically designed to hold and organize the necessary items for magicians to entertain and amaze their audience at close distances. The case typically has compartments, pockets, and elastic bands to securely store different props like decks of cards, coins, ropes, and other small objects. It is crucial for the magician to have quick and easy access to their materials during a performance, and the case provides the necessary organization and accessibility. Close-up magic is a type of magic performance that happens within arm's reach of the audience. Unlike stage magic, which is performed on a larger scale, close-up magic relies on precise hand movements, sleight of hand techniques, and misdirection to create illusions and surprises.

Israel Regardie (1907-1985) was an Adept of the Golden Dawn and he was one of the greatest exponents of the Western Esoteric Tradition of the 20th century. He was also an initiate of Aleister Crowley's Order of the A.·. A.·., and he was a IXth degree initiate of Crowley's O.T.O. It was his aim to preserve the teachings and work of the Golden Dawn and Aleister Crowley. His success in this task has profoundly influenced occult thought. From the age of 21, Regardie worked as Crowley's personal secretary. During this period, until their bitter parting, Regardie was one of the few who knew Crowley well. He was one of the few who were qualified to provide first-hand, personal insight into the character and personality of one of the major figures in Western Magick. In addition to his extensive writings, Regardie practiced as a chiropractor and as a neo-Reichian therapist. He taught Psychiatry at the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic and contributed articles to many Psychology magazines. Regardie's most profound work, The Complete Golden Dawn System of Magic, is a 1200 page book published by New Falcon Publications; a company he founded with his student Dr. Christopher Hyatt. The book is currently available in three different editions: a) 1200 page hard bound with index; b) eBook with the same material; and c) a new portable edition as a soft cover. Today Regardie's work is being preserved and perpetuated by New Falcon Publications and the Israel Regardie Foundation.

Reviews for "Close Up Magic and the Art of Misdirection: Keeping Audiences Guessing"
1. John - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the Close up Magic Case. The tricks included were basic and not impressive at all. The instructions were also poorly explained, making it difficult to understand how to perform the tricks correctly. I felt like I wasted my money on this product and would not recommend it to others.
2. Sarah - 1 star - This Close up Magic Case was a total letdown. The quality of the props and materials included was extremely poor. They broke easily and did not withstand even a few uses. The tricks themselves were lackluster and didn't amaze anyone. I regret purchasing this product and wish I had spent my money on something better.
3. Mark - 2 stars - The Close up Magic Case promised to bring the wonder of magic into the palm of your hands, but it fell short of expectations. The tricks included were too simplistic and didn't offer much variety. The case itself was flimsy and didn't provide proper organization for the props. Overall, it lacked the wow factor I was hoping for and I wouldn't recommend it to serious magic enthusiasts.
4. Emma - 3 stars - While the Close up Magic Case had its flaws, it did have a couple of decent tricks that were mildly entertaining. However, the overall quality of the props was subpar, and some of them didn't even work as intended. The instructions provided were confusing, making it difficult to follow along and perform the tricks correctly. It's an okay option for beginners, but not worth the price for those looking for a more professional magic experience.
