Pop-Up Magic is the very first book by Eric Leblon, a French magician renowned for his stage charisma, infectious energy, and uncompromising artistic standards. Written in collaboration with Yvan Laplaud, this work distills over twenty years of experience, fieldwork, reflection, and passion for the art of magic.Standing at the crossroads of practical handbook, theoretical essay, and personal narrative, Pop-Up Magic offers a remarkable sense of coherence despite its broad range of content: card magic, stage pieces, work with live animals, visual transformations, spectator psychology, character development, and performance philosophy.
More than a simple collection of tricks, this book is a genuine love letter to magic. It delivers ready-to-perform routines as well as thought-provoking material on rehearsal, stage presence, and the creative process.
The magic in Pop-Up Magic is visual, commercial, and powerful:
- Impossible locations: signed cards appearing in the shoe, in or under the card box, with deceptively simple loading techniques.
- Instant transformations: a card change under the watch, an ultra-clean Ace change - fluid, direct, and gimmick-free.
- Animal productions: dove productions and poetic metamorphoses (egg ? dove).
- Multi-phase routines: escalating effects with dramatic structure (e.g., Box Phénomène).
- Magic for close-up, parlor, or stage: all tested in real-world conditions (restaurants, cabarets, TV, etc.).
A must-read. This is not just a magic book. It's an artistic springboard.
Table of Contents
Foreword by Jean-Jacques Sanvert
A heartfelt tribute to Eric Leblon, praising the power, intelligence, and emotional impact of his magic.
Autobiographical Chapter
An intimate dive into Eric's journey: his beginnings performing on the streets of Antibes, his TV appearances, key encounters, setbacks, and his rise to becoming a respected professional.
Theoretical Essay - "Choosing Your Effects"
A foundational text on selecting material based on personality, impact, clarity, and commercial value.
Practical Routines
Card to Shoe - A signed card appears folded inside the magician's shoe. Simple, direct, and devastating.
Watch Load / Watch Change - A visible card under the magician's watch transforms into the chosen card - no difficult sleights.
Tempest Under an Ace - A dynamic, hard-hitting four-Ace routine blending technique, visuals, and surprise - built around the signature "watch change."
Dove in the Sleeve - A dove production from a borrowed jacket, using nothing more than a Topit and precise body mechanics.
Egg to Dove - A poetic transformation of an egg into a dove inside a spectator's sleeve.
Card to / under the Case - Two powerful loading techniques to send a signed card into or under the case - with many applications.
Box Phenomenon - A theatrical, comedic routine where the signed card repeatedly appears under or inside the card case... until it finally replaces the entire deck. A mini-show in itself.
Rehearsal & Practice Chapter
An inspiring exploration of daily practice: procrastination, mirror work, mime, tempo, mindset... a sincere call for personal rigor.
Highlights
- Original, hard-hitting material refined over 20+ years of stage work.
- Strong theoretical insights on effect selection, character, coherence, and audience reception.
- Clear, progressive teaching with detailed descriptions, photos, and performance advice.
- Adaptable routines for close-up, parlor, and stage conditions.
- A deeply human voice: Eric shares doubts, failures, breakthroughs, and his contagious passion.
- A rare blend of practice, theory, and inspiration: a true toolbox for the performing magician.
- Bernard Bilis
"I highly, highly recommend Éric Leblon's book. Éric is technically astonishing and a true perfectionist. If you've seen him work, you already know. If not, buy this book-you'll thank me later!"
- Etienne Pradier
"Burn this guy! Despite all the interest I have in my fellow magicians, it is extremely rare for me to actually look forward to the release of a magic book. But Éric's is the exception-I admit I can't wait to dive into all the subtleties that make his magic so pure... and that have been fooling me for years!"

This is gonna be long, so bear with me.
Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: Large
First of all, I didn't receive the pictured item. I got the "Large" sized barbell chew, and the one pictured is the "mega monster" chew.
This review is for the "mega monster" chew which is what's pictured. I have an 80 pound, 1-year-old lab, and this has actually helped her calm her chewing anxieties. She's become less destructive, and a lot more calmer. She even listens now that her hyper-ness has dwindled down.
The chew I got was the one with the golden retriever- which is the large size. It's the exact same thing and the size I'm reviewing (the one that's pictured with the lab). The one with the 'golden retiever' is recommended for sizes 25-50 pounds. The one I needed (the one that is pictured) is for dogs 50 pounds and up, so it's perfect for my lab. (Are you with me still?)
Anyway, I didn't wanna go through the 'returning and waiting for my new product' process, and I didn't wanna risk getting the same wrong product again. So I just took it to my local pet store and exchanged it for what I wanted in the first place when I ordered this, and paid the difference, which was like 3 bucks.
SO, overall this the quality of this item is amazing! My lab is a strong chewer, and she's entertained herself with this product for long periods of time leaving barely a dent in it. I highly recommend it!

DIEGO LOVES THIS CHEW TOY
Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: Large
NYLABONE DURA CHEW BARBELL - PEANUT BUTTER FLAVOR
Diego is soon to be two years old and loves to play with his toys and chew on NYLABONEs. NYLABONE is the ONLY bone we will let him have.
NYLABONE brand is long lasting. This BARBELL bone has plenty of little nubs for him to clean his teeth on. He loves to carry it around and play with it also. This particular NYLABONE is made for the extreme chewer and that would be little Diego.
NYLABONE products are veterinarian recommended. They are made in the USA. They are high quality. These NYLABONE products keep him happy, entertain him, and help keep his teeth clean. There no toxins involved the manufacture of NYLABONE products. Dogs naturally want to chew, so let yours chew -- on NYLABONE.

Excellent
Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: Medium
I will purchase this again and again as long as it is made in the USA. I have bought this specific toy 3 times for one of my dogs. He still has all three of them. They are durable, long lasting and are not dangerous like some toys are if they start to come apart or after they’ve been chewed on for a while. With these chew toys, you can tell they’ve been chewed on but they don’t fall apart or come apart in large chunks. I watch my dogs with their toys and have had to take away other toys, even from Nylabone, because large pieces will come off or they will get too sharp where they’ve been chewed. Not this one. I’ll keep buying this one as long as it is USA-made. My dog has not damaged his teeth on this toy. I do get the wolf size which is good for dogs up to 50 pounds and he is 66 pounds.

Some dogs will probably love this.
Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: Medium
My dogs were not very excited about this bone. I don’t think they are particularly picky, so I’m not sure why.
