DVD Review: Examining The Thumbtip - de Cova

Monday August 7, 2006
Of all magic props, the thumbtip is perhaps the most misused by hacks. In the hands of accomplished performers, the thumbtip is a fooler. And in the hands of Bavarian magician Alexander de Cova, the thumbtip is an artform. The three effects on this DVD may or may not suit your style, but the thought and handlings by de Cova are worth the price of this DVD.

Why describe what the effects are: vanish, appearance, or what? Not a very informative review.
