Erik Casey – The Bill Test

The Bill Test - Erik Casey - Vanishing Inc. Magic shop

“Erik Casey’s take on U.F. Grant’s bill transposition aces the test. This gimmick manages to allow for a variety of visual and subtle changes that should fit any close-up performer’s style.” -Jared Kopf for Magic Magazine
“When I do non­card magic I am incredibly picky and The Bill Test has gone into my repertoire and wallet.” -Ryan Schlutz

“Hot on the heels of the ever popular Poker Test 2.0, Erik nails it again with The Bill Test. It’s the perfect anytime, anywhere piece of magic that you can always carry with you. It’s visual, powerful, and it happens in the spectator’s hands. This is something I’ll use.” -­Tim Trono

Danny Urbanus – Social Distancing

Social Distancing is Danny’s take on the zigzag effect. Inspired by Ade Rahmat’s Distancing and brought to a more practical effect. The participant folds a card and then the performer will show the most visual zig zag effect.

It’s so direct after the effect is done, you can immediately give the card back to the participant. Only one card in play, easy to make gimmick and fun to practice and perform. Perfect for your social media and live performances.

Christian Grace – Level One

Level One by Christian Grace is a gimmick that allows you to progressively vanish ANY deck of cards. This completely sold out at Blackpool 2019 and has not been available since.

Holding a deck of cards, you give a gentle shake, and half of the deck seems to melt into thin air. With another shake, the rest of the deck vanishes, leaving you with just one card: the spectator’s selection!

The last card can immediately be handed out for examination. There is nothing to find; it’s a normal playing card.

Bob Sheets – Bob’s 3 Shell Boot Camp

Bob's 3 Shell Boot Camp Kit (Includes DVD, 3 Bottle Caps and 5 School for Scoundrel Peas) – Glenn Morphew

From Glenn Morphew: I had never played with the shells before in my life but I had a gig coming up for police and swat team guys. I thought it would be a riot to perform the shell game for a law enforcement audience. Since Bob Sheets and I are good friends, I was able to give him a call to see what tips he could give me to pick up the shell game a.s.a.p because I had only a month and a half before my gig. Bob walked me through his One Minute Routine over the phone while I watched a video clip of it. (That was a trip!) He told me if I used his routine as a drill and I drilled it about 15 times a day, which would be the fastest way to get an advanced skill set with the shells. Good news, it worked! I got it down in 8 days. (but I did do the drill a lot more than 15 times a day, it’s not only a lot of fun to do, it’s addicting!) Since ideally I wanted to perform a routine that was longer than a minute,

Cameron Francis – Packet Mania

Packet Mania Vol. 1 by Cameron Francis

CONTENT:

B-O-X-!: A truly offbeat four King assembly.
TROUBLEMAKERS: Xs appear on the backs of four Jokers, then two of them jump to the faces of two other Jokers.
NO LONGER: Four double blank cards are shown. A mentally selected King appears on one of them. Then it is seen to be printed on all the cards. One is placed aside and the magician claims that the other three are no longer Kings. He proves it by turning the cards over. On their faces are printed NO LONGER KINGS! Totally examinable.
MIXED PERCEPTION: A card is selected from a packet of cards. The cards are mixed face up and face down. A click and they are all face down save the selection. The selection is then seen to have an odd colored back. As if that weren’t enough, the faces of the other cards are now blank! Almost completely self working.
PRINTING ACES: Previously unpublished. The word ACE appears on four blank faced cards. Then the magician turns them into four real Aces.

Signature 2.0

This is Signature 2.0. It’s one of my favourite card magic effects to perform to laypeople, and it can now be yours. For free.

What is Signature 2.0? It’s my impromptu take on the Anniversary Waltz plot. Two spectators each select and sign a card. Then, one of the signatures visually transposes to the other card. It’s visual, it’s easy and it’s impromptu. It has been my opener for four years now, the very first effect I do when I want to perform to a group of people.
