Richard Osterlind’s Legacy to Mentalism!

Richard Osterlind’s commitment of Corinda’a 13 Steps to Mentalism to the DVD medium is destined to become one of the most significant works on mentalism of all time. In addition to scrutinizing every section of Corinda’s famous book and demonstrating many of the effects, he has also added immense value by supplying hours of additional advice learned from years of performing experience in front of real-world audiences. The discussions between Richard and Jim Sisti are priceless!

Richard devoted over six months of his time and effort to the completion of this project and he feels it is one of his most important works – ever! Because he views this project as a continuing one, we are making the following incredible offer only if you purchase these DVDs directly from Osterlind Mysteries.

While a discount is not involved (the $119.95 price tag is already ridiculously low - by today’s standards, this set should be selling for thousands of dollars!), what we are offering is far more valuable!

You will also be placed on an exclusive mailing list and be notified of special offers such as limited editions of a number of the props used in the making of 13 Steps.

But, most importantly, you will receive one more thing - something much more valuable. Along with your autographed and personalized photograph, you will also be given an individual PIN code and Richard’s personal 13 Steps e-mail address.
