Pittsburgh is small enough that the local magic scene is probably three people who know each other. That is not a disadvantage — it is how most performers learn, and a smaller room is a more honest audience than a big one.
Most people looking for magic tricks in Pittsburgh want one of three things: something to learn tonight, a gift for someone starting out, or a specific gimmick to finish a routine they already perform. All three are here — self-working decks and sponge balls at one end, shells and stage apparatus at the other.
Pittsburgh
Close-up and street magic
Material built to survive inspection from three feet away: sponge balls, cups and balls, chop cups, ring gimmicks and close-up mats. Street and table work is the most forgiving way to get good, because the audience is small enough to restart and honest enough to tell you when it did not land.
Pittsburgh
Card magic
Trick decks do the heavy lifting while you learn: a Svengali deck forces a card without a single sleight, a marked deck tells you what they took, and a stripper deck lets you find it blind. Gaff cards, double backers and card gimmicks cover the rest. Most working repertoires are still mostly cards, and most of them start here.

Starting out in Pittsburgh
If you are starting, the honest advice is to buy three things and work them until they are invisible, rather than twenty and perform none of them. A Svengali deck, a set of sponge balls and a decent close-up mat will carry you further in six months than a drawer of apparatus.
