Dominique Duvivier came out with his original "printing" routine many moons ago. I purchased it and learned it and used  it. It user an Atlantis card box. Then Daryl improved it. 

Well, the cards I have, while digging through my older collection of effects are not the ones that go along with Daryl's instructions. These cards have cards that look looks the pips have been swirled and smudged and other wonderful effects. 

But for the life of me, I can't remember the title of the effect, which would enable me to  look up the instructions and re-learn this wonderful effect.

Does any one know the name of the effect that uses the specially printed cards I just described?

Might be Presto Printo or Fallen Pips still available at Daryl.net .

By your description, the cards you have are from Presto Printo by Daryl. I'm not familiar with Fallen Pips, but, I have three sets of Presto Printo and I am looking at one right now and the cards are exactly as you describe.

Best,

Yes! That was it! I couldn't remember that name for the world. But that totally rings a bell. Thanks fellas! Now all that remains is for me to check my files and see if I still have the instructions.

So, anyway, thank-you guys for refreshing my 58 year old memory.

It's been a while since I performed the routine, and at this age, things don't stick in my noggin' as long as they used to. Memories become ephemeral.

I had totally forgotten the routine. But I dld remember one thing: It's a very magical routine!

So where I'm currently at is this: I'm looking up Daryl on Ytube performing the effect. Since I still have the cards, but lost the instructions, I'm trying to reverse engineer the set up from watching Daryl's performance.

So far, it's going incredibly slow.

Success! All systems are go and I'm ready for launch. Well, at least with a few weeks more practice. But I did manage to reverse engineer the set up.

These cards are wonderful. The smudge and the spin card are my favorites.

I can't wait to get this smooth again and bring if back into the fold of my repertoire.

You can get the cards here cheap:

I have always loved "Presto Printo". Not only the "printing" of the cards, but also the cool way the cards are shown as blanks before the "Printing", and even the cool "shuffle" type way to force the 10. I actually use that type of force in other effects. It's very fair looking.

And that force is dead easy to do.
