A Really Great Version of Koran’s Medallion

So this is one of the best El Duco items I have seen. It is a really great version of Al Koran’s Gold Medallion effect from his book Professional Presentations.

The props are well made and unlike some versions this is something I could see myself doing. It works well for close-up and platform too.

Even though El Duco (Christer Gustavsson) passed away in 2008 I am still finding some of his gems that we were lucky to be left with.

Highly Recommended for Magicians and Mentalists – this is something you will use!

The Search for the Perfect Spirit Bell is OVER!

I must thank Mark Stevens of Stevens Magic for getting this to me over the holidays. It is phenomenal!

I’ve see quite a few spirit bells over the years, but this one from Cesar Alonso at Cesaral Magic is easily the best. I chose the Antique Finish which really makes the bell look like a beaten up piece of junk but it works amazingly well – really clear ring. And ZERO signs of how it works. Even the ringer looks innocent. The size is perfect too – it just looks like an old bell you’d find lying around rather than a high-tech device. If you are going to use electronics for anything – they need to be this well thought out.

Yes the bell is electronic and can be recharged just by plugging the adapter in the wall. There is even a green light to tell you when it is charged. How nice of them.

This bell is 100% under your control and what is even more impressive is there are various modes that add a time delay to when the bell rings, so you can press one of the five buttons on the small remote and 5 or 10 seconds later the bell rings. There is even a programmed mode where it sleeps, rings, sleeps, rings, sleeps, rings, sleeps, rings. Really great idea. You could literally press one button then do your routine.

I love this so much I have just ordered the non-antique version – I can’t imagine spending the cash on something else that I know won’t come close.

Truly amazing!

Most Highly Recommended for Collectors and Performers who want to amaze!

Wonderful Micro Magic from one of the Greats

So Eckhard Boettcher has been producing amazing micro magic for years.

This particularly effect came out in the 1980’s and recently the German Magic dealer: Zauber Butike came out with this deluxe edition. And what a lovely looking item it is.

The story that accompanies the props is charming and the effect is magical and surprising.

Lovely to see great, quality micro magic still coming out at reasonable prices!

Feel The Warmth and Luxury!

It is hard to find a prettier drawer box than this Oriental Drawer Box from Worth Magic (which later because Milson-Worth after Jim Simon passed away and Lyn Johnson acquired the company.) Although I am very partial to Owen’s Sesame Cabinet and an oriental one I saw recently on ebay would be easily my favorite (just a little out of my comfort zone for now … or not!).

This is a very solid mechanism with no moving parts on the outside and it also has the ability to pull the whole drawer out. The great thing about drawer boxes is that they support a huge load because most of the size is dedicated to the load.

Anyway, if you see one of these then for sure snap it up, you won’t be disappointed.

Highly Recommended for Collector’s and Stage/Parlor Performers everywhere!

Beautiful, Clean, Easy, and Amazing

So 2013 was a wonderful year for Magic Wagon and they produced some really outstanding effects. Like all of their items these days it sold out very quickly. Their magic always looks amazing and most of the time their effects are good to great, and their methods are normally very practical. In the past they have had their misses, but that seems less and less these days – this is certainly a winner!

This item is probably one of the easiest penetrations you can perform and there is nothing added or taken away, no switches to release, no slides to move, and no magnets or threads. In fact you have just one ball, two bolts, four nuts, and the tube – you see all there is the photos. You can show the tube with the solid bolts running through and drop the solid ball into the hole and have the spectator look fight inside the hole from above and below – there is no way the ball is coming out! And yet with a snap of the fingers the ball drops out of the bottom.

For some the method might be too easy, but for me and for lay people it is a fooler for sure.

Another Unique Beauty from Magic Wagon

So 2013 was a wonderful year for Magic Wagon and they produced some really outstanding effects. Like all of their items these days it sold out very quickly. Their magic always looks amazing and this is another winner!

This outfit allows you to name which die goes into which hole and what the top number on each die is. Also you can tell if 1, 2, or 3 dice have been placed in the box, with top number and location.

There are no electronics here and the box can be examined, and yet you are always able to discern the information. The mechanism works really well and is based on an old idea from Larry Becker and Roy Roth – but taken to a whole new level.

Another beauty from those Magic-Wagon guys!

Beautiful and Easy Penetration

So 2013 was a wonderful year for Magic Wagon and they produced some really outstanding effects. Like all of their items these days it sold out very quickly. Their magic always looks amazing and this is yet another winner!

A piece of clear Plexiglas fills the frame which can cleanly be shown as solid. When not in use this rests in a stand. When performing you take a wooden sleeve that passes over the frame and slide it to the center of the frame, where upon you push through three brass rods right through the center. When you are done you pull the rods out and slide off the sleeve and the Plexiglas is left intact.

It looks impossible, yet it is 100% automatic in working, with nothing added or taken away and really looks impossible.

Another beauty for your collection!
