Entertainment doesn’t have to be expensive!

This is a great little book that looks just like a kids book and the routine is sure to please both young and old. It really is quite amazing how the little Bunny gets so much right about the distribution of the cards. With each page leading to a stronger impact!

Great Magic, Great Entertainment, Great Value!

Another nice one from Gerlitz!

This is another clever and beautifully made effect from Richard Gerlitz, from his lower priced collection!

Although, its hard to really say choosing one out of two can be magical with the routine and sublties that Richard has placed into this effect is a rare little fooler.

I don’t know if I’ll ever be buying his big and beautiful stuff again, but with these smaller pieces at least it keeps me happy!

Nice props and direct effect!

This is a nicely made prop that allows you to detect which card is the spectators, supposedly due to their fingerprints. As you place different cards into the slot at the top, everything is quiet until suddenly the bell goes off, and of course its their card.

Well made, easy to do and a bit different.

Nicely made props with some potential

This is a well made prop that allows you to choose when the odd colored bar will drop out from the hole in the bottom of the tube.

As it stands its more in the puzzle department, but if dressed up a bit I think it could be quite amazing.

I wish they were all so well made!

One of the nice things about Milson Worth is that you just know its going to be beautifully made!

This has always been one of my favorite effects: with the door closed the ball transports itself into the glass in the cleanest manner without any funny moves or covers. Although it is very simple out it works I think its a total fooler. You are left clean and the audience is left gawking. You can even hand everything out for examination.

Simple and Very well made

I haven’t been able to afford some of RIchard’s stuff recently but picked up a couple of his cheaper items over Christmas. This box is not a sure-shot box which is what I thought it was. But it works real well, and to my mind is less error prone than the old sure-shot boxes.

A simple ruse allows a very clean prediction of the shaken dice. And of course its very clean and beautifully made as is all of Richard’s stuff!

This looks very real!

If you look at the photos of this effect it should look very realistic to you. The picks are nearly all ungaffed and it really looks like you are sticking them straight through your hand.

A clever optical illusion is played on the audience and I use this as a warm-up for Death Trap so it has even more impact.

Clean force when you want to force a color

Lee Woodside is always looking for some simple ideas and nice looking materials that he can turn into wonderful marvels to fool and entertain.

When you need to force a color nothing comes cleaner than this deck. They look innocent and the force is sure-fire with no skill.

This is a riot!

I love this effect and routine. Plays really well, the audience has a riot and so does the magician! Check out the video to see how much fun it is! The other great snake in basket effect is of course: Khyber Chicken.
