  1. Andy Martin –

    This amazing prop was created by Val Evans and this is why I love tracking down these old props 🙂

    What a clever, clever item that really defies explanation.  Look at these test conditions:

    • The tray has huge slats in it so you can see through the whole trick.
    • You can cleanly show the tray on both sides.
    • Then you take a normal hanky (which can be borrowed if desired) and cover the slats.
    • Then you hand the deck of cards to the spectators and have 3 cards chosen.
    • The cards are normal and they can choose any cards (no forcing).
    • The houlette can be examined to.
    • The cards are inserted into the houlette and slotted into the tray over the hanky.
    • Everything is self-contained with nothing added or taken away.

    There is no way these cards are going to rise.  But rise they do 🙂

    I love this clever prop and you’ll never find the same joy in any of the modern electronic items available today.  This is how real magic should look.  A very clever method that magicians will love and a very perplexing effect that the audience will love 🙂
