1 review for Hong Kong Paddle by Willi Wessel

  1. Andy Martin

    Another rare and collectible item from 1987 by the great German craftsman Willi Wessel.  Unlike his fellow countryman, Thomas Pohle, Willi has retired from creating magic some years ago, so his magic is getting harder and harder to find.  This is one of his best items.

    What I like about Willi’s routines is that he extracts every inch of magic from his props.  This set comes with a great routine translated perfectly by Wolfgang Wollet. The routine involves:

    • Red Chinese tokens appearing on the paddle and doubling
    • Then you raise the stakes and use Western Money which then doubles
    • Then some Chinese writing appears on the paddle
    • And finally the tokens change color

    Willi packs a lot in to the routine!  Comes with everything needed (use your own dollar bills) and fits neatly in the presentation case.
