Diversions with Dice By Treborix (Robert Olivaux)

DESCRIPTION

One of the hits of the 1947 FISM Congress in Paris was an entertaining Dice Act performed by Treborix (Robert Olivaux). This delightfully illustrated, hard-to-find booklet breaks down every aspect of his act, including various manipulations, and then gives you his complete routine with patter. Divided into six chapters, in the first the author recommends the type of table or table top to use, the kind of dice needed, the proper dice cup or dice-box, plus a word or two about exercises. In Chapter 2 he explains three entertaining bits of off-hand juggling labeled “The Turnover," “The Flip," and "The Flying Pigeon" any one or all of which will add a touch of savoir faire to one's performance. Chapter 3 goes into great detail on picking up and gathering loose dice on the table by means of the cup only. Chapter 4 teaches how to stack dice under an inverted cup, and is the highlight of the book. Those who have seen the remarkable effect that top exponents obtain with such a routine will appreciate the finesse of these manipulations. Chapter 5 outlines his exceptional routine, while Chapter 6 describes two tricks, "The Interchangeable Spots," and “Magnetised Dice," used in the routine given in the previous chapter. Re-typeset, Henri Bouyer illustrations, 34 pages.
