Andi Gladwin & Joshua Jay – The Definitive Jay Sankey Vols. 1-3

Andi Gladwin & Joshua Jay – The Definitive Jay Sankey Vols. 1-3

Finally available again.
A massive three-book collection featuring more than 500 tricks from one of magic’s most prolific creators.

The first edition of The Definitive Sankey sold out quickly and has since become one of the most sought-after magic books in the world.
Over the years, we’ve received hundreds, if not thousands, of requests to reprint it.
Now, it is finally back in stock.

When Vanishing Inc. was founded in 2009, one of our first major projects was creating the ultimate collection of Jay Sankey’s work.
The original goal was simple: curate a greatest hits collection from Jay’s unparalleled library.
What we didn’t expect was ending up with more than 1,600 pages of magic.
This is truly a lifetime’s worth of material in one place.

It took four years of tireless work from Joshua Jay, Andi Gladwin, and Jay Sankey to bring The Definitive Sankey to life.
This treasure trove of practical, worker-level close-up magic is one of the most comprehensive collections ever published from a single magician.

Tricks for Any Skill Level

What makes The Definitive Sankey so special is the sheer variety of its content.
There is material for all types of magicians and all skill levels, much of which does not rely on playing cards.

If you like tricks with borrowed bills, there are over 30 effects using borrowed money.

Interested in mentalism?
There are entire chapters devoted to it, along with full sections on rubber bands, coins, bills, finger rings, and more.

Jay dives deep into restaurant magic, bar magic, and other forms of situational magic.
The collection also includes his theory masterpiece Beyond Secrets, designed to help you become a better overall magician.

Of course, there is also a huge amount of card magic.
From 70+ impromptu card effects to an entire chapter on the torn and restored card plot, nothing is overlooked.

To help you get started, some of the world’s most innovative magicians including David Regal, Rune Klan, Richard Sanders, and others were asked to share their Top 10 favorite Jay Sankey tricks.
These curated lists are included in the books, complete with page references, making them the perfect entry point into Sankey’s work.

Three Beautiful Hardcover Books

Every routine is explained in full detail, supported by thousands of crisp photographs that make learning clear and intuitive.
Each trick includes difficulty markers, labels showing whether it’s impromptu, and special badges for effects featured in the Top 10 lists.

The books are fully indexed, printed on treated paper, and feature gorgeous two-color rendering.
A complete bibliography is included in Volume 3 for those who want to explore specific plots or ideas in more depth.

Since the first edition was released, much of the original source material has gone out of print and is now extremely difficult to find.
Even if you could locate everything individually, it would cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
With The Definitive Sankey, you get all of Jay Sankey’s best magic in one place.

The books are available individually, but you can save money by purchasing the complete three-book collection and gain hundreds of effects for one low price.

It’s taken nearly a decade to make The Definitive Sankey available again.
Don’t miss your chance to grab it before it sells out again.
