Just had an email from Denis Behr saying that Continuum in Spell-Binder is a different move of mine! Similar set up but different idea. In fact, I must admit I don't even remember coming up with that one. If I find another reference, I'll post it here. David
David, I have been fascinated with the Succession Aces plot since 1976- See Solomon's Secrets pg. 176 for my current method. Here is a YouTube video of me doing the effect -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiH4tdi4pZU - This is a non-gaff method.
Thanks again David, it is wonderful to read about Peter Kane. I was introduced to Peter along with Bob Ostin by my friend Ray Bradbury, at a Blackpool Convention in the '80's. I was new to magic and seeing Peter doing a twisting the Aces routine I was awestruck. He taught me the Emsley Count that night and I was amazed by the time he took with me. We became good mates. I attended his funeral with Ray and Kevin Fox, a sad day was improved by the Jazz played during and after the service. Once again - thank you.

Beautiful routine and handling Shiv. Lovely to see. ♥ Paul Gordon
Excellent - well done Shiv and David (and of course Peter Kane!)

I seem to remember he worked for the Manchester Guardian. There is also a lovely story of how he used the switch board for a magic trick.
Very exciting post, as usual. Thanks:
