Diverse Deceptions

Richard’s first new book of effects in over six years!

Most of the greatest mentalism first saw the light of day in small booklets: Annemann’ s Mental Bargain Effects, The Book Without a Name, and so many others; Milbourne Christopher’s One Man Mental Magic series; Robert Nelson’s Miracles in Mentalism series, and on and on. Even Corinda’s 13 Steps to Mentalism was first published as a series of small booklets.

These books were filled with strong, direct mentalism without any fluff and filler. They also contained amazing presentations and tips for the performer. You knew you were buying quality material that worked and was proven.

In the grand old tradition of those times, Osterlind Mysteries is proud to present Richard Osterlind's Diverse Deceptions! This 50-page book is filled from cover to cover with new and ingenious routines and ideas based on solid principles and secrets.
