The
Viper:
This is Terry's newest effect and it received rave reviews when he debuted it at The Magic Castle and at the San Diego Zoo. A volunteer is asked if he (or she) would like to learn a magic trick. He is given a regular deck of cards which he takes into the audience, asking a second volunteer to choose a card. The second spectator is instructed to tear off and keep a corner of the card for identification purposes and return the torn card to the deck. The first volunteer returns with the cards, which are placed on a table next to a basket. The volunteer is instructed on how to coax the assistant, a snake, to reveal the chosen card. Your hand never goes in the basket! At the end of the routine the snake jumps from the basket, producing the chosen card on the end of its snout. The surprise is total! This routine NEVER fails to leave the audience rolling in the aisles with laughter!

Terry's lecture has received RAVE reviews from Rings,
Assemblies, and clubs around the world. Now you can watch Terry's
lecture in the comfort of your own living room, and learn: Mentally
Selected Card, Card Under Glass with Repeat, World's Stupidest Card Trick,
Terry's top change, and much, much more! An hour and a half of truly
excellent magic, explained so clearly that you'll be adding these effects
to your act in no time.
This is not your standard 6-card trick. Magicians
who hate the 6 card trick are DEVASTATED with laughter and surprise when
they see this routine. A truly unique presentation, guaranteed to
leave your audiences laughing and begging for more! Comes complete
with card loading device, a live performance video and instructions.
This is a true classic, like you've never seen it before.
Imagine this: you're sitting at a table doing
close-up magic. Any item you can lap (a deck of cards, a glass, a
salt shaker) vanishes. Then you stand up! You're COMPLETELY
CLEAN! If you wear a coat, this trick is for you. This no-topit
utility is a Chuck Fayne favorite, and is baffling to the lay audience
and magicians alike. Once you try it, you'll never leave home without
it. Comes complete with instructional video.
While the Floating Finger Ring takes a bit of
work to master, it is an extremely powerful effect when performed. A ring
is borrowed from a spectator and then made to float, horizontal to the
ground, right before their eyes and between their hands! Immediately repeatable
for the table-to-table worker. Two-time P.C.A.M. award winner.
Pasteboard Penetration: This effect allows
the magician to penetrate a cigarette, pencil, or silk through the selected
card, and then to show both sides of the card to the audience while the
card is penetrated. The quality of this card has to be seen to be believed.
Collector's
Close-Up No. 3: Pocket Cards:
The Pocket Card effects are easy to perform and
baffling to the audience. As you will see when you read the instructions,
you can produce almost anything from inside an "ordinary" playing card,
including torn and restored cards, signed cards, business cards, salt,
glitter, etc. The instructions even include details on how to make the
product yourself.
If you like the Pocket Card trick but don't
like splitting the cards yourself, you can order refill packs of 40 split
and pre-glued cards (20 backs and 20 faces). We can also make customized
Pocket Cards. Get asked for your card a lot? Hand them a playing card.
After they laugh, say, "No, really, it is my card", and tear open the playing
card to reveal your business card. We can put anything inside that can
be made to fit. You are limited only by size and your imagination!
Silk,
Cigarette or Pencil Thru Card:
This effect is easy to perform and quite convincing.
It is similar to the Pasteboard Penetration in that a cigarette, pencil
or silk penetrates a playing card. The only difference is that both sides
of the card are not shown to the spectators. Based on an original idea
by Don England and David Solomon.
This effect is the same as the basic Silk, Cigarette
or Pencil Thru Card, with the added bonus that it can be used in a color-changing
card routine as well.
A spool of "invisible" thread, ideal for close-up
and stand-up work.
Miniature Bicycle decks that aren't that neon pink
and blue. These are the ones that much more closely match standard Bicycle
cards.
Large, colorful fabric sleeves for your spring snakes.
If you would like us to provide the spring and cover it for you, or to
add a face, call for pricing.
