As a digital download, this valuable resource is instantly accessible, allowing you to dive into these groundbreaking techniques without delay.
Unveil Secrets with 'The Very Modern Mindreader'
The flagship routine, 'The Very Modern Mindreader,' updates Annemann and Hewitt's classic for the 21st century. Osterlind reveals practical touches, honed over thirty years and never before shared, empowering you to divine information sealed within envelopes by audience members. The most astonishing aspect? No gimmicks are involved. All elements can even be left with the audience, making this a truly self-contained and baffling miracle. This is reputation-making material suitable for any setting, from intimate close-up performances to large platform shows, designed to leave a lasting, powerful impression on everyone who witnesses it.
Revolutionize Your ESP Routines with the 'Osterlind ESP Card System'
Also included is the 'Osterlind ESP Card System,' a groundbreaking approach to ESP cards reminiscent of his legendary 'Breakthrough Card System.' While countless effects utilize these cards, a truly definitive routine for basic ESP tests has remained elusive – until now. Osterlind presents a cleverly structured stack for the ESP deck that appears completely random, adheres to flawless rules, and is cyclical, ensuring seamless transitions. Beyond allowing you to 'test' your powers according to the cards' original intent, this new system unlocks a vast array of fresh possibilities and effects with these iconic tools of mentalism.
Predict the Future with 'StenoESP'
The third major offering, 'StenoESP,' provides a dual-routine approach to a favorite Osterlind theme: the three-phrase prediction effect, akin to 'Mental Epic.' This clean, easy, and incredibly convincing routine uses nothing more than a steno pad and a grease pencil. The directness of the method enhances its impact, making the prediction seem genuinely impossible. As an added bonus, Osterlind details an alternative routine that utilizes slightly different apparatus, streamlining the effect for even quicker, high-impact stage presentations. 'StenoESP' offers versatility and a powerful impression, making it a must-learn for any serious mentalist.

Richard Osterlind – The Very Modern Mind Reader
The Triumphant Return Of One Of Mentalism's Living Legends!
Richard Osterlind's name has always been associated with strong and practical effects guaranteed to leave a powerful impression on an audience. In this new manuscript, The Very Modern Mindreader and Other Miracles, his first release of completely new material to the magic and mentalism fraternity in over ten years, Osterlind delivers three outstanding effects, ready to go right into your professional repertoire.
The first, "The Very Modern Mindreader," takes Annemann and Hewitt's classic routine into the 21st Century. With practical touches developed over thirty years and never before released, Osterlind gives you the power to divine information sealed in envelopes by audience members with no gimmicks whatsoever-in fact, all of the elements may be left with the audience. This is reputation-making material, suitable for all venues from close–up to platform.
The second offering is the "Osterlind ESP Card System," a revolutionary new idea for ESP cards, reminiscent of his now-legendary "Breakthrough Card System." Although there have been thousands of effects with these cards, there has never been a routine for the basic tests for which they were devised. Osterlind solves this problem with a stack for the ESP deck which looks random, has no exceptions to the rules and is cyclical so that the last card leads back to the first. In addition to allowing you to "test" your ESP powers according to the cards' instructions, this new stack will open up realms of new effects with these wonderful cards.
The third effect is really two in one. The three-phrase prediction effect has always been a favorite of Osterlind and he's released a number of these ideas over the years. "StenoESP" allows you to perform this classic "Mental Epic"-type effect using nothing but a steno pad and grease pencil. The working is clean, easy and convincing. In addition, Osterlind offers an additional routine that uses slightly different apparatus and streamlines the effect for a quick stage presentation.
