School for Scoundrels is a company created by Chef Anton and myself. It is dedicated to the study of short cons and their history, psychology and techniques especially with regard to how these can be applied to magic.
We teach a class on these subjects every year at the Magic Castle in Hollywood as part of the Magic University program. This class is also known as School for Scoundrels, and we have taught it every year since 1996.
It is an eight hour class taught for two hours each night, one night a week on four consecutive weeks in Novermber. We also run a e-commerce store that sells our course books, props for these scams, and other books, DVDs, props and related items. The School for Scoundrels Store is located at
www.schoolforscoundrels.com This section of the board is to discuss the School for Scoundrels items, and offer reviews, criticisms, comments, ideas and suggestions concerning our products. We will not go into methods and secrets here that should not be revealed to the public. Those discussions are for the Scoundrels sections which are open to view only by those who have been approved for membership as a "Scoundrel." If you want to join the Scoundrels, you must be or have been a registered member of one of our classes, or you need to pm me about your level of interests and knowledge in these subjects and I will approve you.
Look forward to lively discussions with all of you.
All the best.
