Peter Kane (1938? - March 18, 2004) was born in England and created some memorable close-up magic effects. Kane contributed many routines to various magic periodicals.

His most popular routine is probably "Watch the Ace" which is better known as "Wild Card" which was released as a packet trick in 1962. He also created a version with Tarot cards called "Gypsy Curse".

Other routines that spurred many variations include: Jazz Aces, Elongated Lady, and The Shrinking Card Case.
