Fine Tuning A Fooler Lecture Notes by Paul Gertner
We were lucky enough to catch magic legend Paul Gertner's headline lecture at the 2026 Blackpool Magic Convention. It was absolutely stuffed to the gills with mind-popping magic, and worldclass material. And Paul had an epic set of lecture notes to go along with the session. AND WE HAVE 50 SETS IN THE BBM OFFICE!

In this beautifully produced A4 spiral-bound book, Paul reveals some of the secrets behind creating powerful magic for television and high-level competitions. He opens with a section on Magic Theory, sharing eight core ideas that have guided him through more than 50 years as a professional performer.
The Practice section then takes you behind the scenes of his record-breaking five appearances on Penn & Teller: Fool Us, where Paul breaks down the original magic he devised to fool Penn & Teller. He shares custom-designed methods and exposes moments that never made it to air.
Finally, in the Performance section, Paul teaches five polished routines drawn from his corporate work and one-man shows—reputation-making pieces he has relied on for over four decades.
One of the taught routines is THE WEDDING SHUFFLE, a new version of Unshuffled that is (excuse the cliche), worth the price of the book!
