I've read that Michael Weber used to perform a routine where he pulled a borrowed ring from the sealed packet inside a Cracker Jack box. Did he ever publish it? If he did, where can I find it?

I don't think Michael ever published it.

Are there similar routines that are published?

No,

What tends to happen is when someone who originates a routine performs it openly and regularly, it tends
to become a "trademark" effect associated with that performer.

Lots of other performers were interested in performing it, but they all respected that Weber got there first.

Thanks. Pretty much came to that conclusion after some research.

And many times after it is used for years and then no longer used, it gets published.

Philip,

Absolutely true! But not (yet) in this instance.

Philip, here's one that kills: http://tricksite.com/index.php/product/quacker-jackd/

Michael Weber has never published his as I understand it.

Got that but was disappointed that it is another card trick and another i***x trick!

No index required for Incredibox. You do lose a card in the deck and then any way you know to control it and palm or cull it out of there is fine. You will need to Mercury fold the card, but a template and scoring tool for scoring cards to make perfect Mercury folds is included. (That makes the purchase worth it even if you don’t use the box much!) But you do not need an index - I don’t think one is even mentioned in the video instructions.

Thanks!

Jim
