    Here we have another beautifully made item from Carl Williams and the latest addition to my collection in the Okito-Williams series of effects. Carl has meticulously recreated this beauty from the original prop made by Okito c. 1933 all the way down to the transfers used on the original boxes.

    Okito added the box and the automatic wind-up mechanism (which Carl faithfully follows) and it makes performing this effect about as easy as it could be. The butterfly looks amazingly realistic with not much practice at all. The key thing with this effect is timing – my video went on a little long, but I am still happy with it. Hope you like it too 🙂

    I have never seen this performed before tonight. Andy – I thought your performance [and not so quick,] was great actually. I was just speaking to a another collector of magic the other night that has this trick and I have heard of it a bit before, but never seen it performed. I actually think your timing is awesome to give the trick a little bit more showmanship than you think. I thought the performance you gave was better than the first video, to tell you the truth. Wow! What a great trick!

    From Andy Martin: Thanks so much Jon – glad you liked it. I really tried to do justice to this great piece, adding the music and even putting on my Tux for the first time in ten years 🙂
