This begins with a dangerous look at Faustino Chacón, the fireproof man, courtesy of Enrique Jiménez-Martinez. The brush with Mr. Chacón left this issue a little bit singed on the cover, but none the worse for content.

Following this, we continue to heat things up with a revealing article on the World's Challenge Champion Card Manipulator of the World, Dr. James William Elliott! The article was written by Jan Janson, a card magic historian and friend of Conjuring Arts, who used a heretofore unpublished cache of letters between Dr. Elliott and T. Nelson Downs. These letters were in the collection of Robert Lund and are now in the collection of the nonprofit American Museum of Magic. Jan delves deeply into Elliott's life, and even reveals a few of his most cherished card secrets. A must read for anyone desiring to go for the title! This is the first collaboration between Conjuring Arts and the American Museum of Magic.

The mathematician Gaspard Monge's shuffle is next on the docket, featuring a look at how it may be used for magic, and its relation to faro shuffling, by R. Sid Spocane II. This delightful introduction leads you into a translation of Monge's original article, "Reflections on a Card Trick." Monge was a newly minted Ph.D. in France, in the late 18th century, when he first presented and published this great paper. The translation was expertly rendered by Maxwell Pritchard.

Gorgeous

I bought 2 of these dresses, they are adorable. They are well made, fully lined, quality product. They fit so well and will be flattering on any figure. I’m 5’10”, the length is perfect. Well below the knee. A classic fit and cut

Flattering fit, great feel, totally worth it
Size: Medium, Color: Black
I had to squeeze my girls in, but I made it work, lol! This was my first time shopping from The Drop and I was so suprised by the quality. It's definitely a heavy dress but I really love how it feels and fits on my body. For context, I ordered a medium, I'm 5'2", 155 lbs, 36DD, and 30in waist. It's tight on my bust but comfortable around my hips and waist, which isn't a big deal. The side zipper kills me though lol so beware, lots of twisting to get that thing shut. BUT still worth it. great dress.

Great dress!

Heavy linen, lined dress
Size: Medium, Color: White
Nice heavy linen. Lined. Has a zipper. Great quality dress. If you like pockets, this dress has them. The skirt is full at the bottom. I would prefer to have less material. The pockets are right at the hip, this is not helpful for those with hips as it adds weight and I am tall and have a nice hourglass shape, but am not looking to have bigger hips . But beautiful dress.
