Always examinable, never detectale, totally EZ
I have been a casual magician for years and have become a more serious ameture down through time. This trick, which was one of the 1st I’ve ever owned, has remained a favorite. I have always pulled it out and mystified friends and family alike. I could do it immediately, and its secrets are never detected.

A Worthy Mummy
I am a collector of period and contemporary mummy effects. I have all of the nice pices that Francois Danis makes. This one in particular is a nice working or display piece!

Even better than Run Rabbit Run!
I think that Run Rabbit Run is probably one of the best if not the best "Children’s Effects" ever devised. This version is even better because not only do you have all the fun of the original, but you can have extra fun with the whole Cookie Monster theme.
This may not be the strongest or best made version, but for sheer entertainment and story telling I think it is very hard to beat. No longer available, so difficult to track down. But if you see one, snap it up!

Lay Audiences Love It.
I booked my wife to be a walk around magician at a Green Bay Packers Public Shin Dig at Lambau. She had never done magic before, but is a fast learner. This is one of the two tricks she did and totally killed. Very bright and visual prop.

Ah Original, Quality Magic!
Harold Voit has marketed some great magic. This item and one of my other favorites, the Wandering Mummies, are both beautifully made, effective, and clever – a collector’s dream.
This particular piece, made by the German Master Craftsman Tony Lackner, is really a utility item, in that you can control what the hand points to – and it can be different each spin. But when you dress it up like this, the performance and story aspects really incease and you can perform some very impressive, and scary, magic. Perfect for bizarre performances, or any Alan Warner collector who is inspired by his Equptian themes.
Briefly the effect is: 6 items are chosen – these can be anything within reason, and laid around the stand. A spectator selects one and is handed the box with Cleoptra’s hand encased. The spectator removes the hand and places it on the base. They then spin it and as it spins it slowly comes to a stop and points to their chosen card. The key thing is that the spectator places and spins the hand themself without any interaction from the magician.
A very beautiful effect. Be wary of cheap knock-offs that have recently been offered, get the original that Joe Steven’s is now offering again.

Two Thumbs Up!
Another top quality collectible and performing piece from Francois Danis! Mine was custom-made for me… with a yellow color scheme rather than the red. Very attractive… and very well made.

This beautifull effect works so smooth and resets automatically its just amazing.I feel bad for who ever missed out on this one. This is by far the best divination ever made. This is my new favorite Richard Gerlitz effect ..At least until his next one comes out !!

Two Thumbs Up!
Francois is fast becoming another Alan Warner type builder. His wooden Egyptian-themed pieces are very well made and absolutely beautiful! The Wandering Mummies was the only the first of his creations to add to my collection. Nicely done… and stores in a nice wooden, decorated case. I’ve added several more of his crafted pieces since this one. Each piece is hand numbered, dated, and signed. If you see one… get it! Once his name gets out, and collectors begin to admire and appreciate his work… these pieces will become quite sought-after.
