Fast & Loose Chains (endless chain)
Finally
after much searching I have found some beautiful Silver Plated "Prince
of Wales" Rope Chain. This is the same style as recommended by the "School
for Scoundrels". It is very similar to the one they sell in design, not
quite as bulky.
Since releasing these, they have have become one of my best sellers. I am proud to say that these chains are now in the hands of many top professionals. And I have alot of great feedback.
I have two sizes as you
can see in the pictures.
The chains are just over 5Fft (Before being joined into the loop).
Thinner
chain 3mm Dia
Thicker chain 4mm Dia
complete with a nice pouch
(No routine) but I highly recommend the School for Scoundrels routine.

Classic Card to Wallet by Wayne Dobson / Tony Curtis
Effect
A
card is freely selected, signed and returned to the deck, which is then sjhuffled.
Removing a wallet from inside his jacket pocket, the perfomrer then unzipes
a compartment and clearly removes the signed card from within. An impossible
miracle, yet easier than you might think!
Wallet Dimensions : 4 x 6.75 inches or 10.16 x 17.15 cm
Yes the all time classic "Kaps" / Balducy style wallet made by Tony Curtis as with all of Waynes leather goods so you know the quality. And if Wayne has put his name to it... Enough said I think!
Selling elsewhere between £60-£75. Yours for the incredibly cheap bargain....

Long Cat - Short Cat - (Boomerang Illusion)
This
version of the classic boomerang illusion will "blow you mind".
You will no longer trust even your own eyes. As you the magician talk about optical illusions, you display two cardboard strips with Cats on them. One Cat has a blue collar the other a red collar. You also show a third strip that is a ruler. With this you prove that the two Cats are the the same length. Then explain the optical illusion. Suddenly it is no longer an optical illusion but reality!
To the eyes of the spectators, it appears that the two strips stretch and shrink.
For the climax, the magician proves that the two strips have actually changed size.
The audience will be fooled by this effect, but so will the Magician! This looks so impossible that you will fool yourself every time you demonstrate it.
Oddly I never thought much about the boomerang effect until I saw this! This has taken it several steps further... Amazing. You WILL love this!

I
have managed to get a very limited supply of these at a sensible price,
so I can put them out at what they used to be before they shot up dramatically.
And they are the original version not the the rather nasty copy made in
China!
An amazing vanish of cigarette so stunning it looks like trick photography!
A cigarette is slowly & visibly pushed up your nose. Your hands are
then shown absolutely empty! Includes special hand crafted gimmick and detailed
instructions thoroughly illustrated by Tony Dunn.

of the greatest small illusions I have ever seen." - Michael Skinner

This
incredible little trick with a nut, bolt & tube. The nut is screwed
halfway onto the bolt and dropped into a small metal tube. The Magician
now gives the tube a little shake, removes the lid and simply tips the contents
out - to the audiences complete astonishment, the nut has not only unscrewed
itself, but has penetrated right through the head of the bolt and rolls
out of the tube separated from the bolt. Everything is immediately dropped
into the spectators hand for thorough examination.
Comes complete with alternate presentation.

Bcck in stock...
Wow...
This is really cool. A big stage illusion in minature that you can carry in your pocket and perform close up around the tables.
Now incase you have never seen this illusion performed... This is how it goes.
On stage is a doorway, doors front and back. The whole ensemble shown around completley. Both doors are opened and the audience can see right through, nothing there. Both doors are closed and again the whole thing is shown all around. When the front door is opened again it is seen that the magician has now appeared inside the frame of the doorway!
You can now perform this in all your close up gigs. A grand illusion on a minature scale.
With Lego being so popular now it makes it even more relevant.
AND heres the best part... It's like e real Lego kit with instructions. You get to build it yourself! (Glue recommended to keep it permantly fixed)
How much fun are you going to have with this!

Based
on the William Freer puzzle. Also known as the puzzle of life and several
other names.
It has presented itself in many forms but this has become the most popular version.
This magical puzzle is a masterpiece of ingenuity.
A rectangular puzzle is presented and shown to fit perfectly inside of a frame. The magician adds a new piece and rebuilds the puzzle, yet somehow it still forms the same rectangle the same size as before, When you add another piece this time twice the size of the last one and once again rebuild the puzzle, it impossibly still forms the same exact size rectangle, and fits perfectly within the same frame.
The more you add, the more things remain the same. A Perpetual Puzzle.
Not only a great "Magical - how the hell" type puzzle. Also a great presentational piece. Check out you tube for the "Puzzle of life"
This great unusual piece comes complete with instructions and carrying pouch.
You'll love this!

Baby Jade Rings and Coins - Alan Wong
This
set of classic Rings and Coin trick comes with two REAL JADE BRACELETS that
makes it a collector's item. From a small velvet bag you bring out two small
jade rings, a red lucky envelope and carefully place them on top of the
bag. You explain that the jade rings are traditional lucky charms for newborn
babies in China, and newly wed couples give away "lucky money"
on their wedding day with these lucky envelopes. From the red envelope you
drop out a shiny gold Chinese coin that represents luck and prosperity.
Tell your spectator you want to send her good luck and prosperity by performing
a ritual using these lucky items. You place the rings over the coin with
the red envelope in the middle, and then make a wish to send it your friend.
You slowly remove the envelope and the coin is gone! You then repeat the
actions and show that the coin has magically reappeared under the ring -
"because the blessing will always come back to you one day."
Each baby jade rings set comes with 10 golden brass Chinese coins (for give away), two red envelopes ( one more to spare) for the lucky money. The envelopes are embossed with the Chinese character "Double Happiness". The baby jade rings ( about 2" diameter) are authentic REAL JADE, and all the items are contained in a drawstring black velvet bag. The whole trick's effectiveness lies in this bag, which acts as a black-art mat and performing surface, giving it a good reason to be there. Many presentations themed around "Luck," "Prosperity," and "Blessings" can be created using these fine props. A separate smaller velvet bag is included to store and protect the jade rings when they are not in use. Instructional DVD included. Very easy to perform and great story telling piece. This elegant set of close-up magic can be carried in any close-up case or even in your pocket, always ready to perform.
Alan has added a lovely
subtly to this trick as well as making it with very nice props and remember
these are real Jade rings, hence the price!

Floating
Match
An absolute classic magical illusion.
A match is placed across a playing card. At the magicians command the match
rises and floats above the card.
Another card is passed under the match to prove it is floating. The match then floats down and rests on the card.
Very simple and very deceptive.

I am very proud to have been given permission to reproduce this fabulous classic effect.
" I love the new subtleties you have added.....The best version on the market!"- ALBERT SPACKMAN! High praise from the inventor himself
Whilst
warning about the dangers of "Voodoo" the spectator is shown a card
that bears the effigy of a man that is to represent the "victim", this
is placed to one side and remains untouched... Meanwhile several other cards also
with the effigy of a man on them are shown, each has a cross on a different part
of the body.
The spectator shuffles the cards and is asked to choose one in the fairest manner possible. The chosen card reveals the fate that is to befall the victim. the card is revealed... There is an "X" on the foot... when the victim card is turned over ITS FOOT IS NOW MISSING!
Now made in laminated cards. Perfect for halloween! One of my personal favorites.

Borrow
a bill and have it signed. Plunge the pen right through the bill. Of course you
then instantly restore the hole in the bill. Don't confuse this with any other
version on the market. John Cornelius created a fabulous effect with his "Pen
Thru Anything" which required a switch of pens. Then He made it even better
with his "Perfect Pen". No switching and examinable but a little out
of the reach of some magicians pockets... Then came a host of cheaper "Bic"
type pens but most of them not that well made... Until now... This perfectly ordinary
disposable style pen is beautifully made and looks completely natural. The simple
act of removing or replacing the cap and the gimmick is gone... leaving just a
simple ordinary pen... Yes it writes too. I have seen most "Pen Thro's"
and in my opinion the only ones worth having were the originals from John Cornelius
until this came along. Highly Recommended!
One of my best sellers!

This

repertoire of every magician.
Trust me when I tell you you do not need a thumb tip for a bill switch so try this!

on it. You now make the spots jump from one paddle to the other, first only on

are limited to your own imagination. (My routine is very short…) This is

A
Banknote is placed on an identical size piece of paper then the two are folded
in half. A pencil is then pushed through the centre. of them both. When unfolded
the paper has a hole the banknote is of course is unharmed. You then instantly
repeat it using a smaller piece of paper. There seems absolutely no way there
could be any trickery you would swear the pencil passes through the note. you
can see everything from all angles, but once again the paper is ruined the note
still intact. Everything can be borrowed and it can be worked impromptu. You receive
a well printed manuscript with detailed instructions and diagrams to take you
through it step by step. So simple to do but an absolute killer effect…Now
comes with bonus pencil thru bill routine a-la Timothy Wenks "Mislead".

Pencil
Through Banknote
(a version of 'Mislead'. Included with Bill Buster, above)
Although
similar in effect, this is not to be confused with 'Pen through anything.' or
the Bill Buster (above) In fact it gives you a different method and handling making
it perfect to use as a substitute for the pen.
You borrow a note and fold it almost in half. A pencil is then taken and inserted between the fold. Suddenly you push the pencil straight through the note and clearly show that it is penetrating the note. Now you rip the pencil out of the note which is immediately shown unharmed. It looks incredible and with a little handling is easy to do.
Complete with full routine, pencil and special gimmick.

The
18+ in the title could represent the legal age at which you could drink at a
bar, and legitimately watch the routines in this outfit! Or it could be the
number of cards you get in this outfit, or the number of routines detailed for
you in this manuscript of routines. You take your pick!
Magic 'at the bar', or for a partying adult audience, gives you an excellent performing platform. You have an audience with the time and inclination to watch, observation skills that are not at their peak, and where a little entertainment goes a long way. You have an audience that is ripe for the type of effects this outfit offers, - all revolving around tipsy themes, with no exceptional skill or sleights.
Most of the effects are completely self-working, just follow the instructions. Others require a small amount of manipulation, well within the reach of the most modest close up performer. These effects could just as easily be performed at a restaurant table, at a hotel, garden party or private function - anywhere close-up magic and drinks may combine!
We supply you 18 "drink" cards, (in an attractive wallet), and a 24 page book of routines to perform with these cards. There are some 18 routines, plus variations.
Pick up the cards, follow
the instructions, and we guarantee you some great entertainment at your next
party, restaurant or pub session!
