Wonderful, Clean, Entertaining Mentalism!

On the Martin’s Magic site one of the effects I get asked about a lot is Gary Kurtz’s amazing Psycho Kinetic Dice. Unfortunately Gary stopped making this many years ago and of course I foolishly sold my set.

However, recently I had a custom set of six dice made using the same method as Gary’s dice and designed this routine around them. You show six different dice and show them all to be ordinary by having the spectators shake them in the shakers a few times. Then you ask them to choose any four dice and to place them in the shakers.

In the meantime you introduce your Psychic Tortoise – Rocket "Rocky" Martin (yes named after my daughter’s tortoise!) – and write a quick prediction and place it inside Rocky’s shell. Now the four dice are shaken and one by one they are placed over Rocky’s magic shell so that Rocky can feel the vibes. At the end the four caps are opened to reveal the number of the top of each dice. The cover of Rocky’s shell is now lifted and there for all to see is the prediction that was made before the shaking began is the same.

There is nothing added or taken away and any of the six dice can be used. In fact you could have three chosen or six even.

I really like it and wish that Gary would start making the dice again so that other people could enjoy their magic!

The Prettiest Square Circle Around!

The Magic Wagon guys are getting good at making the best versions of some old stand bys, and this Square Circle is no exception.

Sure it’s an old trick, but just line all of these beautiful creations together and you’ll certainly feel magical all over again.

Just look at the amazing magic in the Magic Wagon Collectors Line – it is hard to find anyone either today or in the past making such beautiful magic.

Highly Recommended for Magic Collector’s and appreciators of fine craftsmanship everywhere!

More Breathtaking Quality!

Here we go again with some really incredible quality magic from those great guys over at the Magic Wagon.

This is an old effect, and I’ve owned versions from Alan Warner and Mel Babcock, and there have certainly been others. But although Alan’s and Mel’s are beautiful, it is hard to compare with the quality and finish of this set.

Just totally breathtaking. Just look at the amazing magic in the Magic Wagon Collectors Line – it is hard to find anyone either today or in the past making such beautiful magic.

Highly Recommended for Magic Collector’s and appreciators of fine craftsmanship everywhere!

What a beautiful Genii Tube!

The Magic Wagon guys are getting good at making the best versions of some old stand bys, and this Genii Tube is no exception. I just wich my photos were better to really convey how wonderful these items are. The darker woods are difficult to capture.
