Description: "...that's the first thing you do in the morning... make sure you have your Thumb Tip with you... then you're ready to go out and conquer the world." -- Gary Darwin This incredible new DVD set will give you dozens of original and unexpected effects that you can perform professionally. Plus, it'll give you a handful of effects that will fool even the most seasoned magicians. If you thought the thumb tip was just for vanishing handkerchiefs, get ready to feel like the cockroach Darwin brings back to life at dinner (Volume One). This is the ULTIMATE work on THE ULTIMATE UTILITY GIMMICK . Filmed in Las Vegas at four venues: The Penguin Studio, The Penguin Close-up Stage, Darwin's legendary Las Vegas Magic Club, and Darwin's Magic Museum.
