Effect

You place a jumbo card face down on a chair without revealing it's identity.

A participant is invited to sit down on the mystery card and is shown a deck of shuffled playing cards. You explain that they will use their subconscious to deduce the identity of the jumbo card they are sitting on. The spectator cuts the deck into two piles and places them in either hand. They are asked to toss one half away and keep the other. After they do this they cut the remaining cards into two piles, holding one in each hand and they once again toss one pile away and keep the other. Down to the last few cards, the participant chooses one card, having the opportunity to change their mind several times. They make a final selection. With their final choice in hand the spectator stands and picks up the jumbo card, to find it matches their selection EXACTLY!

SMART ASS Considerations:

Perform SMART ASS close-up and surrounded.
Perform SMART ASS for large audiences.
SMART ASS packs small and plays big.
SMART ASS happens in their hands.
SMART ASS takes seconds to reset.
Perform SMART ASS naked (if you need to).
SMART ASS can be suitable for all ages.
SMART ASS uses no equivoque or magician's choice.
SMART ASS uses no switch of the jumbo card, deck or final selection.

Mo Mo by Attacky - Book  
Mo Mo by Attacky - Book

skill level

 Ref: C247
Attacky's "Mo Mo" Book includes the following tricks:

DEEP BLUE

EFFECT: The magician takes out a blue-backed card and put it face down on the table as a prediction card. The magician asks a spectator to freely name a card. Let's assume that 8 of Hearts is chosen. Then, the magician takes out a deck so that the card will not be forgotten and that it will not be told differently later. It is a red-backed deck, from which the magician takes out 8 of Hearts. The magician ask the spectator to hold the blue-backed prediction card with the right hand and the red-backed 9 of Hearts that was pulled out from the red-backed deck with the left hand. At this timing, the magician confirms what was done so far.

"I had taken out this blue-backed card before you named a card. After that, you chose the 8 of Hearts. Is it right?"

When the spectator opens the prediction card, it is 8H!

The Back of the Back

EFFECT: The magician borrows a coin from a spectator and asks him/her to sign on this coin. Then, the magician teaks out a case with cards inside and show the inside to the spectator by opening the flap. The inside is filled with cards approximately to the half without anything on the top of the cards.

The magician closes the flap to confine the cards. The coin is vanished. When the flap of the case is opened, the coin is seen on the top of the cards in the case. When the coin is taken out, it is found to be the signed coin. Even if the inside of the case is shown again, obviously there is no coin anymore.

36.5C

EFFECT: The magician says, "Since the cards are delicate, you have to handle them carefully and quickly. They may be affected by a slight change of environment or even by temperature. It is like a sushi of fresh tuna is damaged when a person who has warm handle spends long time to make one. It is not widely-known but the cards are most affected at the temperature of 36.5C, and indeed my normal temperature is 36.5C (97.7 F). Therefore, I have to do the magic quickly" Then, the magician takes out a blue-backed, cuts it into half, turns the bottom half face up and shuffles it with the top half face down.

The magician shows the mixed cards, face up and face down, to the spectator slightly awkwardly. However, when the magician snaps his/her fingers then all the cards show face-up in a moment.

The magician says, "I managed to turn them face up but it seems to have taken longer because the cards were affected." When the deck is turned face down, all the cards are now red-backed.

The magician says, "The temperature of my hands affected the cards. In my case, what was affected was not the material of sushi but the trick of magic."

All the faces and back may be completely spread, and another routine may be done afterwards since the deck is a regular one.

Mental Cards

EFFECT: The magician takes out a bundle of word cards that he/she uses to acquire a wide variety of knowledge. Many questions and answers are written on the cards. The magician takes out one card from the bundle, write something on it and put it in front of a spectator. The magician gives the bundle of cards to the spectator, has him/her divide the bundle wherever he/she likes and asks him/her to secretly memorize what is written there on the two pages of cards where the bundle was opened. The magician asks the spectator to mention what is associable with those written on the card in front of him/her. The performance may be repeated and the bundle may be examined.

A Triangular Competition

EFFECT: The magician takes out a deck of cards and shows that all the cards are well-mixed. On the back of each card, one of the five symbols - circle, triangle, square, star or cross - is drawn randomly. The magician also takes out five pens with different five colors and a small envelope. Only one card is in the envelope, and a half of the card is shown out of the envelope. The magician puts a rubber band around the deck, ask a spectator to divide it whichever he/she likes, and ask him/her in remember the number and the suit of the card where the deck was divided and the mark drawn on the back of the card which is facing to the selected card. The magician turns away and says to the spectator, "Please pick up one of the five pens, remove its cap, imagine the card you saw just now and draw the mark you saw in the air with the pen you picked up." When it is finished, the magician asks the spectator to mix the five pens so that the magician cannot find which was used.

The magician turns around and takes out a card from a deck but it is not a selected card. The magician says, "I know this is not your card. My prediction has been here from the beginning," and points out the card in the envelope. The magician takes out the card from the envelope and puts it face-down on the top of the deck. Then, the magician asks the spectator's card, the mark and the color of the pen that was used. When the magician turns the top card face up, it is the card the spectator remembered, and the mark which the spectator saw is drawn on the card with the color of the pen which the spectator picked up.

And Many, Many, More Exciting Tricks brought to you by Attacky.

Colour Blind by Matthew Johnson 
Colour Blind by Matthew Johnson

skill level

 Ref: C216
From the creator of "Voodoo" and "Stabbed in the Pack" comes a color changing deck and box routine that will leave your audience feeling Color Blind!

The Magician starts by removing a red deck from a red card case. After the jokes are removed and placed on the table the magician proceeds to show that all of the cards have red backs.

A card is selected and then lost back in the deck.

First the deck changes color from red to blue, that is except for the spectator's card which is now the only red card in a blue deck. Then the spectator's card changes from red to blue.

Secondly the two jokers that were placed on the table before the deck changed color are show to have red backs. In a SNAP the jokers also turn blue.

Finally the magician explains that he cannot put the blue cards in a red box...It would not look right. As he says this the card case changes from red to blue!

The cards are placed back in the case and now you are instantly reset and ready to perform the whole routine again!

Color Blind is visual magic at its best and comes complete with the special Card case, necessary gimmick and a DVD showing the performance and explanation.

You provide your own deck of Bicycle Playing Cards.

Performed at the Magic Castle

Magic Castle 2007 Close-up Magician of the Year

"In 1973, with a nod of appreciation to Jeff Busby, the innovative mind of Roy Walton introduced CARD WARP to the world of Magic. It too the community by storm. I can still remember the first time I saw Card Warp performed. It took my breath away! I loved the trick, but was never satisfied with my ending. That has changed now!

When I shared my handling with Roy Walton in 2002, he told me it was one of his favorite version of his gem. I promised him that I would only teach this to other magicians directly. Roy Walton has finally allowed me to share my routine with you via DVD. Now you can have my Finale to show your audiences with certain gasps of amazement.

This is my complete interactive routine, designed for the Strolling Magic performer. It is audience-tested. Use the whole routine, or add my Finale to your own routine. Your audiences will love it!" - Paul Green

"I've seen Card Warp. I've done Card Warp. Paul's setup and finish are fantastic. I look forward to applying these simple yet effective techniques to strengthen my presentation of this classic effect." - Bill Exley (Member of the Magic Circle)

"Sometimes when you thing there is nothing else you can get from an effect, someone comes along and proves you wrong. Paul Green and his handling of Walton's Card Wrap has done just that for me." - John Armstrong (Close-Up Magician of the Year at the Magic Castle)

 Ref: A555
Warp One is a completely re-wired version of Roy Walton's classic Card Warp. The big news? David removes the cover card and performs the entire illusion in full view!
NO EXTRA PIECES!
NOTHING TO PALM OR SWITCH!
NO GIMMICKS!
Warp One uses a single card from a normal deck... held out at the very tips of your fingers.

You fold the card in half then simply wave your fingers over the card, and the single card visibly turns inside out: First half the card, then the other half (both sides are shown), then the card turns completely inside out and then back to half and half.

Each stunning visual change happens with a single normal card held at the tips of your fingers!

You end with the classic Roy Walton ending by tearing the warped card in half and handing out the pieces for examination.

David Ren Jenkins' Warp One is a visual treat. The moves are completely invisible. The handling is a downright joy to perform.

All you need is a single card and your bare fingers to permanently warp your audience's reality.

Includes David's special handling for restoring the card.

THE FINGERS MAKE NO MOVEMENTS OTHER THAN A GENTLE WAVING ACTION!

Special Features:
Multiple Camera Angles (including your point of view)
Alternate Ending (David's method for restoring the torn card)
Pre-show (how to bring the card into play)

Dingle's Deceptions - Derek Dingle, DVD  
Dingle's Deceptions - Derek Dingle, DVD

skill level

 Ref: C226
"We have with us the greatest card manipulator in the world."
- Barbara Walters

Derek Dingle's first book, Dingle's Deceptions (written by Harry Lorayne), which was released in 1971 created a firestorm of interest. The routines taught in that book created his reputation as one of the best, most skilled and creative close-up magicians in the world. On this DVD you will see Derek Dingle perform and teach the miracles that first made him famous. As a bonus, Dingle teaches the hysterical routine which he uses in his stand-up and formal close-up shows.

Routines performed and explained:

Card In Balloon: A funny stand-up routine where a selected and signed card appears in a chosen balloon.

The International Coin Trick: Four coins, each from a different country, penetrate the center of a table, one at a time arriving audibly in a glass.

Through and Through: Four cards are placed at the four corners of a table. They magically gather beneath a jumbo card one at a time.

Color Triumphant: A card is peeked at in a red deck. The deck is cut into three piles and the piles are shuffled face up and face down. When the deck is spread all the cards are now facing the same way. As a kicker ending the deck is now blue backed and the selection is the only red backed card in the deck.

Four Coins In The Countin': The coin assembly that introduced the now famous Pickup Move. Four coins in different corners of the table vanish one at a time and gather under one playing card. As a finale a large coin is produced.

Open Sesame: Four Aces are lost in different parts of the deck and are then found using four different flourishy methods.

Double Color-Changing Aces: Four aces are lost in a red deck and then produced, but now they have blue backs. In a visual ending their backs change back to red in a flash.

Sleights explained within routines: Topping The Deck, Rubdown, Han Ping Chien, Turnover Switch, Peek Force, Pickup Move, Bluff Shift, The Nelson Quickie, Bottom Slip Cut, Triple Buckle, Throw Cut and much more.

Torn Too by Daniel Garcia - DVD  
Torn Too by Daniel Garcia - DVD

skill level

 Ref: C202
Effect

From the mind of Daniel Garcia comes a torn and restored card routine that will make you smile.

"You've got a great smile." -- Daniel Garcia

A card is selected and signed.

You explain: Your "secret" is a small "CRIMP" you put in the card so you can find it.

You demonstrate: Your "CRIMP" is actually a hilariously large chunk that you tear off of the corner of their signed card.

You explain: This "CRIMP" allows you to cut to their selection "just by feeling for the missing part".

You confess: There's one small problem with your method... sometimes a spectator with "a highly trained eye" will notice the extra piece. With this, you pick up the torn chunk of card from the table and place it on top of the spectator's signed card.

You give the deck a couple of tiny shakes to position the CHUNK into place. As you wipe your thumb over the tear, the card is VISUALLY restored.

Immediately hand your spectator their signed card. It's COMPLETELY RESTORED.

Now take a moment to relax and enjoy and bathe in love. You're completely re-set for the next table.

THE POWER OF NINE (Raymond Grosholz, Snr): A spectator helps you to reveal the four nines in the deck.

P.D. COINCIDENCE (Arthur Carter): You predict a coin selected among three by a spectator. Virtually no sleights.

DAVID FORREST'S "COLOUR BURN" - THE SLOW MOTION COLOUR CHANGING DECK!

"The method is a thing for the AGES!" - David Regal

"WOW! The colour change at the end of the routine completely fooled me! Great work!" - Andi Gladwin

"Excellent trick! I don't know how the gradual change happens..." - Peter Duffie

"Dave perfomed this inches away from me and my eyes almost popped out of my head. This is SERIOUSLY visual magic!" - Cameron Francis

"I can't get my head around it! It looks SOOOOO good! It's like 'WOW' all over again - only not £40 and breakable!" - Liam Montier

"Just watched the rest of the video sections. Very clever!" - Peter Duffie (a little while later)

"This is VERY clever my friend. I was completely fooled by the slow motion colour change!" - Cody Fisher

"I have been trying to acheive that exact effect for for a year or two. Awesome!" - Ben Williams

THE 'COLOUR BURN' EFFECT

A blue backed deck is removed from its case. The deck is spread and your spectators are asked to call out the names of some cards that they see. You then take the named cards and, one by one, begin to magically change their back colour from blue to red! Offering a better look at the technique you announce that you will change the back of another card...
...IN SLOW MOTION!

With a gentle wave of your hand, the card begins to visibly change. The card actually appears to change as you move your hand back and forth over it! You pause halfway - the card under your hand is half blue and half red! Slowly, you complete the colour change, visually changing the remainder of the blue card to red. The card is now fairly shown on both sides - it has completely changed to red!. But, you're not done...

With a snap of your fingers the entire deck instantly changes to red before their already disbelieving eyes. They pick their jaws up - you move onto your next miracle!

DAVID FORREST'S 'COLOUR BURN'

Colour Burn is a colour changing deck routine unlike any other. The effect plays exactly as described above and includes a stunning 'slow visual' moment where the back colour of a card is seen to change visually as you wave your hand over it. This amazing visual transformation is accomplished via a devilish gimmick, the details of which are fully explained in the DVD and the special cards you need to achieve "Colour Burn" are included inside the box!

The gimmick has a multitude of uses. You can CHANGE ONE CARD INTO ANOTHER or even PRINT THE FACE OF A CARD! Once you understand the gimmick a world of opportunity will reveal itself but, as a special bonus, a second effect is included on the DVD:

BONUS EFFECT: 'PRINT RUN'
A spectator is invited to select a card which is then lost back into the deck. You remove a card from your pocket which you allow your spectators to examine thoroughly - it is completely blank on both sides. You take back the card and ask your spectator to concentrate on their selection. Slowly and visually you begin to print the face of the blank card to match the selected card. Piece by piece, the image of the selection materialises on the previously examined blank card as you rub your fingers over it! You then display the back of the card - the back has printed too - the card can then be handed out for examination.

WITH COLOUR BURN THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS!

Without you even touching the deck a spectator thinks of any card and removes it from the deck and hides it in their pocket. You then take another deck and claim that you are going to try and choose the same card that the spectator has hidden in their pocket. You remove one card and the spectator removes the card from their pocket, however it is NOT the same card. You ask for a Second Chance to prove that you have chosen the same card.

Turning over your card it is seen that the spectators 'Thought of Card' is written on the back, proving that it is the Same Card!

Sounds impossible? It's that good!

Have you ever dreamed of being a performer who can fill a room with personality, excitement and mystery, without resorting to a lot of props to do the filling?

Bill Abbott's Cabaret Card Magic reveals how to turn your card tricks into real magical experiences that can entertain and mystify large audiences. Proper selection of material, the effect of your performance environment on that material, as well as the use of stories and how to generate consistent applause are some of the tools Bill discusses in detail. Ultimately, what is revealed here is how to create commercial card magic for the stage. Bullet proof performances that will work for any audience and in any environment you are thrown into.

Praise for Bill Abbott's Cabaret Card Magic...

"As a professional magician for over 12 years, I am very picky when it comes to material selection for my act. Having read this booklet, I will be putting two of the routines directly into my show and I'm anxious to try out the third. Bill is a true artist. Whether it's an effect, a method or a presentation, Bill remains unsatisfied until he has created something truly unique. The routines in this booklet are a breath of fresh air for the stand-up performer. The effects are easy to do, the presentations are simple to carry out and their impact on a lay audience is HUGE! To top it all off, each routine is fully scripted, complete with all the lines, comedy, bits of business and psychology that makes each blockbuster routine play so well."
- Richard Sanders - from the Foreword

"Bill Abbott's Cabaret Card Magic is an extremely cogent work and is of tremendous value to every magician out there, but particularly to magicians who want to increase the effectiveness of any material they choose to do for real people. Bill's ideas with the do-it-yourself Ultra-Mental deck is wonderful and I love the Princess and the Pea, a very commercial routine that packs small, plays big. However the real gold is found in the information on pages 7 through 9. To any working magician this information is worth the price of the book."
- Marc Desouza - Author and Performer

"The idea of entertaining a large group (as in 50 plus people) with only a deck of cards is at once thrilling and scary. It would be convenient...but what sort of material would you use? Bill Abbott's Cabaret Card Magic has answered our questions with a collection of card material designed for large groups, and I enjoyed it immensely."
- Joshua Jay - Magic Magazine

"Reading Bill Abbott's Cabaret Card Magic was a real breath of fresh air when it comes to literature about "card magic". It became increasingly clear that Bill thinks long and hard about staging, presentation and creating professional pieces that are memorable. Although I have my own signature presentations of classics like the Invisible Deck and the Tossed Out Deck that I use professionally, Bill's original take on each of these is incredibly inspiring and are truly worthy of serious study. Professional secrets worth ten times the asking price!"

The Dayton Wallet
by Ron Dayton

Effect

Attention all Wallet Collectors and performers who have come to know Ron for quality and simplicity of thinking!

Announcing the Dayton Wallet Workshop!!! For sometime this simple but clever idea was shared with a select few subscribers to Oracle Magazine. Now, in new forma, Ron shares for the first time with the magic community at large, his Dayton Wallet.

This is a simple Do-It-Yourself project for the magician or mentalist. With a few simple tools and a few minutes of your time, you can create a magician's loading wallet that is charming in the ease of operation and versatility.

Specifically, this is what would be considered a loading wallet, allowing you to load a card, or any small object in to your wallet as needed. It could similarly be used to steal any small object from within your wallet, and peeked at later.

This thorough 10-page color monograph is available as a glossy printed booklet, or as an E book, your choice- It takes you step by step through the process of creating this simple but powerful utility device (And best of all, you can make as many of these wallets for your own use as you like- all for the price of the manuscript!)

But the HOW-TO is only one half of the value of this little gem. The other half is the two routines which Ron has supplied.

First- A deck is riffle shuffled and a spectator is given free choice to cut the deck at any point, and place their cut-to card face down on the table. You do not touch the card at this point. The freely selected card is marked with a sharpie on the BACK and SIGNED by the spectator on the face. The spectator replaces the card on the deck.

You attempt to name their unseen card using your psychic ability (Body Language, finger tip sight or whatever you like) However, you name the WRONG CARD. (Gasp- Oh No!)

Not to be outdone, you take the card (Marked back still visible and showing on the top of the deck) and turn it over, showing that the marked card, which previously WAS their signed card, now is NOT the card they signed, but the (apparently wrong) card that you divined earlier. You toss this card onto the table, commenting- "Of course THAT couldn't be your card...Your card is in my wallet!" (And sure enough, when you open the ZIPPERED COMPARTMENT of your wallet, they can reach in and pull out their card.. Signed on the face, marked on the back!

The tabled card is wiped on your sleeve and the mark that was seen on its back (Now clearly back on the selected card where it started) has vanished!

Now...The BEST thing about this trick is that it does not require any palming, no controlling of the selected card and the spectator will believe they see their card plainly right up until the instant it vanishes! How? As Ron says in the booklet- Through Subterfuge and lies!

The second routine, for those of you who are familiar with Ron's Bizarre writings such as "Darker Light" and "By Darkness Influenced", is a bizarre version of the same routine. Enjoy a story of a Soldier and a deck of cards from the 1800's. Gambling with the Devil's Pasteboards. A treat for you lovers of storytelling and the bizarre.

HypnoTrick by Ben Williams 
HypnoTrick by Ben Williams

skill level

 Ref: B984
Now it is possible to make people believe you are a master of suggestion/hypnosis techniques without having to learn the detailed ins and outs of this advanced skill!

Imagine dividing your audience into two groups, the first you influence with an hypnotic suggestion, and the second remain unaltered by your powers!

Effect

With HYPNOTRICK a spectator can select a card from a deck and show it to everyone in his group before signing it. The performer then shows the second group the selection and they see a totally different card, despite there being only one card and it being signed across it's face!

The performer can release the spectators from their hypnotic state at any time, to show the true identity of the card. Oh, and the card can then be immediately inspected!

Now you can do all these things with Hypnotrick, a brand new effect from the creative mind of Ben Williams. With this knowledge and detailed photo illustrated routine you will be able to perform a whole range of effects from convincing people you are a master of suggestion techniques to doing a signed colour change using just one card and your bare hands. This effect could also be translated onto stage for a larger performance maybe in a mentalism act.

This is visual magic at it's best, not just 'another card trick'; this can be as powerful as you want it to be.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS

Can the spectator really sign the card?
Yes! Although it is not necessary, the spectator can sign the FACE OF THE CARD before it changes. There are no duplicate signatures used. The signature can be in full view the whole time whether the 'hypnotised' group or the 'unhypnotised' group are seeing the card.

Can the spectators inspect the card?
Yes, after the trick is done the card is 100% examinable and can be kept as a souvenir, something I would encourage. In fact because of the nature of the effect the card can also be fully inspected as it is selected.

Do you need to be highly skilled with cards to perform this effect?
No, not at all. In fact all you need to know is one sleight that is not hard to execute and 95% of people reading this will probably know how to do it. The handling has also been refined so that there is no knucklebusting sleight of hand required, allowing you to concentrate fully on your performance.

Do you need to know any hypnosis or suggestion techniques?
No you don't. Although to gain full credability for what this effect can achieve you should be able to act the part of a mentalist or somebody who can influence a persons mind using suggestion, such as when you read a spectators mind to tell them what card they have.

Is it suitable for 'real-world' working conditions?
YES! Here's a few reasons why :-
No difficult angles and unrealistic 'moves'
Quick reset
Fast and entertaining for your audience
Adaptable to your current performing style or card effects
Can be performed surrounded
Works one2one with a spectator or plays to a whole group
You can put your business details on the back of the card

"Nice One!!! I've been playing with this for the past few weeks and I LOVE IT!" - Dan Makings

"I purchased this on the strengh of your other 'own' items which I have found to be excellent. Once again I am not disappointed. Keep it up!" - JoJo UK

"I actually made a GUY scream out in shock and amazement with this! It's a strong bit of magic guys, now moved it to be a card magic closer effect! Thanks" - Mat Cane

"I have my sticky mitts on a copy of Ben Williams' effect, Hypnotrick. I havebeen eager to see this ever since Ben showed me a video when he was workingon the effect.

Hypnotrick is written with Ben's friendly and witty style. The instructions areclear, detailed and easy to follow. Ben goes into the minutest detail whendescribing his presentation and handling of this effect, though he pointsout that this is just one presentation, you could easily come up withsomething that fits your own style.

What I particularly like is the depth in which Ben describes the finerpoints of the handling, misdirection and audience management, something thatmany magicians leave out when publishing an effect.

The effect relies on a simple gimmick which is easy to prepare, there aredetailed instructions on how to do this. Due to very clever routining thecard is 100% examinable when selected and at the end of the effect. It canbe signed by the spectator if you wish, and can be handed out as a keepsake.You end totally clean.

This is a very clever routine with the potential for you to inject your ownpersonality into it, though Ben's style fits it perfectly and he givesdetailed instructions on how to achieve this. It's a routine which willamaze your spectators and have them thinking you truly do have hypnoticpowers. For the spectators that is the only possible explanation.

I am now busy practising my hypnotic stare, and unnerving all around me Imight add! I have tried this out on my family who are used to being my magic guinea pigs, but this really freaked my sister out, tee hee! I willdefinitely be adding this one to my new repertoire of effects this year andI highly recommend it.

For all you wannabe Derren Browns out there, you are going to love this.Brilliant in it's simplicity as the best magic effects should be, but withgreat reactions! I wonder if Derren has seen it yet?" - Stephen Morrison

After they frantically examine the card, they have no clue how you did it. The new piece really does appear to be part of the card even while they examine it!

The performer asks, "Would you like to see the I Hate David Copperfield trick? Do you know why I call it that? Because "I Hate David Copperfield". I actually don't hate him. He's a really nice guy and a great magician... it's just that every time people find out I'm a magician they start comparing me to him. "Can you walk through the Great Wall of China?" "Can you make the Statue of Liberty disappear?" "Do you date a super model?" That last one hurts the most. So I decided to do something Copperfield can't do. A close-up illusion that happens right before your eyes."

The performer then visibly and cleanly melts one card through another in a manner that looks like trick photography... but live in person, and 3 times!

Geoff Williams' I Hate David Copperfield Trick is an ultra-visual, ultra-practical, and ultra-cool handling and presentation for Larry Jennings' wonderful "The Close-Up Illusion" trick. This is a miracle that you will carry with you all of the time and absolutely will blow your audiences away. This looks like real magic...even to YOU as you do it.

"What inspires BELIEF in other people? Things they can SEE. The HYPERVISUAL project features an amazing collection of specially printed Bicycle brand cards, each of them designed to create a visually shocking illusion people will remember for years to come. Pips move, back designs transform and holes appear and vanish. But not only is this card magic people can really SEE, it's also card magic people can TOUCH. Many of the effects not only happen IN THE HANDS OF THE AUDIENCE, but a moment after the magic happens the playing cards can be HANDED OUT FOR EXAMINATION. Several of the very special cards can even be kept in your pack at all times with very little chance of being discovered by even a close examination of the pack. In other words, instead of having to secretly add them before or after an effect, these special cards can quietly sit among all the other ordinary cards like secret weapons. Featuring brand new routines, as well as several of my most visual card effects that have been unavailable for years, HYPERVISUAL is one of the most powerful collections of card magic I've ever released. Because when it comes to magic: SEEING really IS believing." - Jay Sankey

Includes 11 specially-printed Bicycle playing cards plus an instructional DVD with over TWO HOURS of magic and mental effects!

Many of the routines happen IN THE HANDS OF THE AUDIENCE and then the playing cards can be handed out for close examination!

Several of the very special cards can even be kept IN YOUR PACK at all times with very little chance of being discovered!

Many of the routines include SEVERAL different handlings and presentations, so one will be pefect for your skill level and style.

Here are just a few of the outstanding effects:

LOCOMOTION: The pip on a selected card is visibly PUSHED across the surface of the card and then the card is handed out for examination!

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY: A prediction written on the card case undergoes a startling transformation! And the case is handed out!

SHIFT: The back design on a selected card mysteriously 'shifts' 45 degrees! It then magically 'shifts back' in the spectator's own hands!

SLEEPING BEAUTIES: The two faces on the Queen of Diamonds both "fall asleep" and the card can be handed out so everyone can verify that their eyes are truly SHUT!

TERRA UNFIRMA: A 'pretend hole' is stuck to a card and a moment later the hole becomes REAL!

UBERCHANGE: A card visibly changes despite a sticker initaled by the spectator STUCK TO ITS FACE!

OUT OF CONTROL: This INCREDIBLE 3-climax mental routine might be one of the most mysterious versions of "Do As I Do" ever!

Learn all the insane card changes Jay is famous for, taught in the kind of detail that only Jay provides!

 Ref: B931
One of card magic's most direct and dramatic tricks!

Since the early 1700's, magicians have been dazzling their audiences by finding selected playing cards with knives. In the intervening years, legendary magicians such as Charles Bertram, Nate Leipzig, Karl Germain, Max Malini, and countless others have used this effect to astound onlookers and forge reputations.

On this DVD, you'll be treated to seven different interpretations of the Card Stab. Johnny Thompson begins with Max Malini's legendary version as he stabs three selections from cards scattered across a table while blindfolded. Michael Ammar contributes another legend's take on the Card Stab - this time Nate Leipzig - as two cards are located by a knife thrust into the center of a pack of cards that's been wrapped in a napkin. In a similar vein, Frank Garcia enables a spectator to stab their own signed selection in a wrapped-up pack while also providing a lovely bonus card production from a card case. Daryl finds a selected card by stabbing through a newspaper that covers cards that are spread across a tabletop while Jeff Sheridan expands on a Milbourne Christopher concept and stabs a card from a shuffled deck while it's suspended in a bag fashioned from a paper napkin. Steve Dacri demonstrates how to make the Card Stab play big as he stabs two selections right out of the air and Paul Potassy shows off the trick he used as an encore when he performed on some of the world's most prestigious stages.

Milbourne Christopher once wrote in Hugard's Magic Monthly, "Card-stabbing mysteries are effective on the largest stages, on night club floors when the magician is entirely surrounded and, paradoxically, close-up." In this volume, you'll find ample proof of Mr.Christopher's assertions.
