Here's an effect in the "miracle" class; one that your audiences will remember you by — a reputation builder.

Anyone in the audience is asked to call out the name of any card. The person naming the card is asked to pick up the pack which lies on the table within its case, and deal cards face up, one at a time, until he comes to his card.

The spectator deals every card in the pack, but fails to find the one he just named.

He counts the cards and there are only 51 separate cards.

One card is MISSING and the missing card is the one just named aloud.

The performer reaches into his pocket and without the slightest delay, brings out the very card named by the spectator, which was proved to be missing from the pack.

At no time does the Magician ever touch the cards. There is absolutely no force of choice. This miracle works 100%, as the element of chance plays no part in it.

Proves its merit in one show. No get-ready preparation for the next show.

It's always ready. Ordinary cards are used — no fakes.

PREMONITION can be mastered in five minutes and can be worked anywhere.

Also included is another miracle: The Blind Magician Does a Trick.

The story is told of a famous Magician who lost his sight in an accident and thought his professional career had ended. As days went by, however, he made the surprising discovery that he was developing a sort of undefined SIXTH SENSE. In time, this proved to be more potent than his original normal vision. Through this extra sense, not only could he see the VISIBLE, but the INVISIBLE as well.

The performer then proceeds to give an astounding demonstration in proof of the above. Three different methods are given, all equally good, and in two of them the performer’s vision is genuinely obscured. In addition, there is a “Follow-up” trick, the secret of which the author has guarded for years.

Use your own cards (none supplied).
