Another Card Box?

Well here we have another card box! Just when you thought ten was enough here is another one!

This is pretty nice, well made and does the job. I guess I still wonder about the need for so many card boxes, and why I keep buying them!

Nice box, and it rattles too!

This is a clever chest that not only allows the secret addition of a prediction, but also has a built in rattle.

The secret door can be opened even once the box is locked and it is very beautifully made. It comes with an asprin box, but to my mind the little keepsake box I added looks better.

Owen craftsmanship at its best!

Nice props and great effect.

This box is beautifully made and although the method is simple I think it looks real effective.

The necklace is shown, taken out, vanished, and then it reappears in the box. Simple plot and beautiful props!

Beautiful and very Clean Prediction Effect

So its easy to get bored with my reviews of Alan Warner magic. I know I have trouble coming up with words that are different each time. The simple fact is that bar none Alan Warner is the number 1 micro magic inventor and manufacturer in the world today. I defy anyone to show me anyone else who is as prolific or as much of a craftsman as Alan Warner.

This effect is clean, beautiful, and very convincing. Any one of the teak plaques can be chosen, and the prediction is turned over to show it matches. The other plaques are then turned over to show that they are all different. No moves or steals.

Very nice!

One of the Warner Signature Pieces!

I have spent two years trying to track this down and finally I got a lead from a fellow ebayer. Alan Warner sadly no longer makes this effect, but this set I picked up was in mint condition and they are beautiful.

The effect is similar to the Voit Mummies with an extra piece of magic where the mummy is seen to actually float in the coffin. Then the transposition of the mummy going from one coffin to the other occurs.

Its a shame that Alan stopped making these, but I am more than a little pleased that I managed to track one down.

Just beautiful and amazing!

The old Paddle Move Updated

So here is a nice effect using the paddle move and some wonderful Alan Warner props.

As you know you can’t go wrong with Alan Warner magic. Its beautiful, clever, entertaining, and convincing!

Half my kids act came from here!

This simple lecture by Tony Griffith is responsible for half of my standard kids act. The whole premise of the lecture was you turn up with a simple brief case and perform the whole act from there.

Great stuff!

The Best Monkey Bar!

I was always a lover of Acrobatic Silks, which itself was a modification of Ken Allen’s Monkey Bar. However, after seeing Kovari perform the original version of this twenty years or so ago, I have always preferred it.

This version by Viking is much smaller than Kovari’s original and it makes it all the more amazing when the surpirise kicker ending happens with the two extra “stunt” fish appearing.

Great effect for young and old alike.

Wonderful, Spooky Mentalism, and Brilliant!

This effect by Lee Woodside has a great story and with the upgraded Oujai board looks very authentic.

It is a strong and clean prediction of any letter that the specator moves the pointer too, followed by another prediction of the number they will choose. I just finished playing with this again, and had forgotten how strong this effect is. So upgraded it to 5.

I think it can combined very nicely with Dear Boss, for a total mind harrowing experience!

A great one for the Halloween Party!
