Notes on Marlo's First 34
Each version that Marlo published in the New Tops is compared with barebones. This will not only give you the scope of Marlo's contributions to the effect, it also gives you a study guide.
Spectator Cuts the Aces Plus (Neal Elias)
This was mentioned in Marlo's references, but was never published. This description was found among other Marlo items (published in the Output series). This, along with Marlo's notes are included.
Bill Meisel's Letter to Marlo (1977)
This is a peek at a Bill Meisel letter to Marlo related to Spectator Cuts to the Aces, and includes further information.
Bluff Spectator Cuts to the Aces (Reynolds)
This is an off-beat version that extends the Veeser/Marlo ideas from Faro Controlled Miracles to create a handling that is direct--bold, but direct!

This is a fun and subtle production of a four of a kind that I think Leipzig, now that I think about it, would have enjoyed.
