5 out of 5 The first time I saw this wonderful effect, invented by the talented German Inventor and Craftsman Wolfgang Grosskopf, was when Olaf Güthling shared with me his stunning version. This version, created by Germany’s Magic Workshop, is not quite as impressive, or authentic looking, but nevertheless it really is a beautiful item. …
5 out of 5 This was the final release by Magic Wagon in 2023 and I have not heard anything from them since 🙁 However, this is a real beauty. The reviews on The Cafe are a mixed bag – some people love this and others hate it, but for me you have to embrace …
5 out of 5 What a clever, convincing and easy to perform production item this is from Bev Taylor’s Town House Magic.

5 out of 5 The most convincing switching device I have ever seen is the amazing Devil’s Mail Box by Thayer and later by Owen’s. It is so clean you really can’t believe anything has happened.

4 out of 5 Thayer’s Great Ballot Box Mystery c. 1916 was hailed as The Wonder Trick of 1916 and what a beauty it was. Louis Gaynor reproduced one of these for Stevens Magic here. This version was one of the very early items created by Thomas Pohle when he had a workshop in Berlin. …
