Rama Deck By Owen Packard

You leave the room as your victim shuffles and cuts the cards before taking one and putting it in his pocket. You return and immediately - without even touching the deck - know which card he has chosen. This is like REAL magic!

You hand your spectator two decks and turn away from him. He puts one deck in his pocket and shuffles the other. He takes a card from the mixed deck and hides it in his pants (the sicko). You turn back and ask him to hand you the deck he dropped in his pocket BEFORE he shuffled the second deck. You spread it to show one face down card. It's the same card as he currently has in his pocket!

You write a prediction of two cards on your business card. Your volunteer pushes the card into the middle of the deck. The cards it is touching are taken out and, of course, match the prediction.

The cards are shuffled. You run through them for ten seconds and can then appear to have memorised the order of the entire deck. A guy cuts the pack and turns over the top card and you can tell him which card comes next. And the one under that. And the one under that. You get the idea.

Notice the variety of effect possible? Sound good so far? There's more...

" The cards can be examined - on both sides.

" They can be shuffled and cut by you or the spectator.

" You never have to see their card - even the back - to know what it is.

" No knucklebusting moves required. A beginner magi can operate the RaMa and perform amazing tricks!

" It can be used as a normal deck - no more switching.

" The possibilities are endless. This has been called the greatest utility deck since the "Invisible".

In a Flash By Jay Sankey:

The hottest trick in close-up magic! Now with new REALISTIC-LOOKING burnt cards!

Coin magic meets card magic in a burst of flames! A card is selected, signed and returned to the pack. A borrowed and marked coin is wrapped in a piece of tissue paper and placed on top of a deck. The spectator touches a lit match to the tissue paper and it bursts into flames. When the smoke clears, a HOLE HAS BURNT THROUGH HALF THE CARDS and the marked coin is found resting, directly on top of the signed card! And the deck can be examined! This absolute reputation-maker is very easy to do and resets in a second.

Price: £17

You display a leather gypsy envelope and a beautiful old gypsy fortune telling deck. Each card has a fortune printed right on its face. You ask your "client" to utter the name of a special someone to create a relaxed fortune telling atmosphere. Let's say her special name is "Rose."

You then do a short three card reading for your client. The first card predicts good luck. The second card indicates an impending mystery. The third card hints that this impending lucky mystery might have something to do with an envelope. Could it be referring to the leather envelope lying on the table?

You open the leather envelope and remove a small packet of fortune telling cards. Their backs are a different color than the cards you've been using!

You slowly and cleanly deal the cards from the envelope on the table. The first card has a large hand drawn "R" on its back. The next card an "O". The nest an "S". The final card an "E"...spelling "Rose"!

No one says anything for a very long time. Then a single word escapes your client's lips. "HOW?"

NO Cue Cards!
NO Memorization
NO Mnemonics
NO Lead-in Effect!
NO Cards to Hold!
Totally Angle Proof!
Completely Streamlined!
Includes a custom-made leather envelope and a full-color gypsy fortune telling deck! Price: £36

Astral Projection By Jay Sankey

A thought-of card vanishes and reappears under impossible conditions! Virtually self-working!
Description:
Half the pack is given to the spectator to hold. The spectator is then invited to MERELY THINK of any card she sees in the other half of the pack. The spectator never names the card and yet, without any fishing or questions whatsoever, the card vanishes and reappears among the cards she held in her own hands from the very beginning! So easy, so astonishing!

Comes complete with specially printed Bicycle cards, illustrated instructions and an instructional DVD featuring ADDED INFORMATION and NEW BONUS HANDLINGS! Price: £13

Soft Shoe Monte By Jim Steinmeyer

Soft Shoe Monte uses just three jumbo cards (with the requisite Bicycle backs, thank you very much) to pull the proverbial wool over the eyes of your spectators. Through three phases, though it seems as if everything has been explained clearly and that the rules couldn't be any easier to follow, the money card is never where they expect it. Even when you use one hand and two cards, the spectators are completely flummoxed.

This is a trick that plays huge, packs small and packs a punch. Masterfully deceptive, ingeniously clever and devilishly entertaining, Jim Steinmeyer's Soft Shoe Monte isn't just cheating, it's a complete stand-up routine that makes dishonesty a sure thing.

Price: £16

You place the mirror on the back of the card so the reflection of both angels is clearly seen. As you slowly slide the mirror across the card, a strange "angel zone" opens up next to the reflected angel. Suddenly, the reflected angel is gone! It's not in the mirror or on the card-the angel has completely vanished!

The "angel catcher" is repositioned to display the reflection of the one remaining angel. You slowly slide the mirror to create a second reflected angel. This face optical angel visibly slides off the mirror and onto the card, transforming into a printed angel! You hand the actual printed card with both angels on one end and a blank space at the other!

The card, mirror and even the entire deck can all be thoroughly examined.

Card Warp By Roy Walton A Davenport exclusive and one of the most baffling effects in the history of card magic and it is really weird yet so simple to perform. A single playing card defies all the known laws of logic. The card is folded in half lengthways, so that only the back design shows. The card is then pushed through a cardboard folder and as it emerges from the other side is seen to be now inexplicably face up! The spectators can visibly see that half the card is face up and the other half is face down. The effect is now repeated and the third sequence is an effective finale, that leaves the apparatus in the spectator's hands. The playing card is an ordinary one. No extra cards are used, nor are there any difficult sleights to perform and a patter theme about a 'Time Tunnel' would fit perfectly. The 8 page, A5 size booklet of instructions that accompanies the cards you need is superbly printed on high quality art paper and has a rich red art board cover. This is the original version.

Price £2.50

* Multiple spectators shuffle an ordinary deck, which is then held under a spectator’s hand, yet the magician has correctly predicted the top card.
* The magician, standing behind the table with empty hands, causes a signed selection to penetrate the tabletop.
* A selection is placed between four Aces held in the hands, then jumps to the center of a pile of Kings already on the table.
* The magician pockets four-of-a-kind selected by a spectator, then spreads the Aces in a face-up fan. Visually, in an instant, the cards change places.
* A spectator cuts the deck multiple times, arriving at his own phone number.
* Two volunteers cut to and turn over the four aces—a new method for a classic effect.You may fool yourself!
* A cotton ball is plucked from a spectator’s clothing, then changes into a handkerchief.
