What a wonderful and colorful children’s routine that you just don’t see the like of today. Based on an original Louis Histed idea this wonderful routine comes from Bill Weldon. The magician explains how a silk is vanished during a practice session and after searching high and low he is unable to find it. So tells of how he ate a midnight pizza which results in a crazy dream which he goes on to illustrate. From a pizza box he removes a stage filling array of colorful animals and finally magically recovers the missing scarf. Apart from all the wonderful colorful characters there is also a Chinese Compass part to the routine which is always entertaining.

Just when you think you’ve seen all the variations of Anverdi’s amazing Enchanted Ring, including an almost perfect one from Dave Powell himself, along comes Dave again to create a much large stage version (which could equally be performed close-up) which is really flawless. Really works smoothly and everything can be minutely examined too. Great job Dave!

This is Dave Powell’s latest spirit slate which is essentially a larger and better quality version of the old CW effect the Slates of Soloman (though I believe there were other versions before it too). This set of spirit slates works without any flap or outside gimmick. It is ingeniously designed with the mechanism actually inside the slate.

I’ve always liked this effect designed by John Snider and put out back in 1976 by the Original Rings ‘N Things. This version is better than the other similar effects such as Clarence Miller’s Non-Rising Card because it uses a 100% clear perspex houlette rather than an opaque one.

This is one of my favorite ideas from Tango Magic: the simple transpostion of one date for another on two signed coins. It looks amazing, but it is simple to do with the cleverly gimmicked coins.

A sword is pushed through the center of a tube and a solid ball is dropped in and then found to be threaded directly on the sword. Long unavailable this beautiful, rare and unusual prop includes a precision made gimmick that makes the magic happen.

Another unique item from Ted Bogusta. A silver and a gold coin are shown, one instantly changes into a chain necklace. Your hands are shown empty with nothing added or taken away.

The Perfect Laser Pendulum allows you to take a classic tool used by mentalists and magicians for hundreds of years to the next level, allowing you to use your favorite pendulum routines to the stage or grab attention from across the room by making your routines more visible.

If you’ve never used a pendulum before you’re probably thinking this is not for me. But when you just start playing with one you quickly realize it IS for you. The addition of the laser takes this to a whole new level. Not only is it much easier to see, but it is just more fun. It also comes with a 32 page e-book filled with all sorts of clever ideas. This is certainly a winner from Taylor Imagineering!
