A sheet of newspaper, a few folds, and two cuts. The result is a
beautiful double-cut star: either the Star of David or a Pentagram.
The basic premise is this. The performer shows a plain and
obviously un-gimmicked sheet of newspaper. Following a series of
quick folds and two straight cuts, a perfectly formed double-cut star
is produced.
What do I mean by “double-cut?”
If you look at the cover art above, you see that the star image
appears in relief; the lines or arms of the star have weight. Compare
this with the traditional star cut from a newspaper; the star is
simply a hole in the paper!
But there’s a lot more here.
The methods taught allow for the production of either a pentagram
or a Star of David. The Star of David may be familiar to some of you,
and yes, it is the creation of Gene Anderson and is included here
with his permission. The pentagram is all new. The Star of David is
included because, for the first time, both styles of stars may be
produced as either a positive or photographic negative style.
You will learn a fool-proof way of preparing for these cuts so that
they always come out the same. You’ll also learn how to perform
these cuts in an impromptu situation.
Also included are presentation ideas and tips: my own, plus
contributions from Ariel Frailich, Evil Dan Terelmes, and Patrick G.
Redford.
