Greetings to all! Years ago, I saw an effect where a strip of paper with a word printed upon it was torn and restored into a different word, and also torn and restored into the original word. Does anyone remember the name of that effect? I believe it was once sold by Hank Lee's Magic Factory. This was back in the '80's. I would really appreciate any feedback on the name of the effect, and possibly where it could be found these days. If I'm not mistaken, I think it was used on one of Copperfield's early specials. Peace, Love, & Magic! |

A very creative version was in Flip Hallema's lecture notes circa 1974. The premise was tearing a piece of paper with the words "we'll- do- it" printed upon it. tearing it into 4 pieces, Flip has amusing comments about each word or word fragment. When restore it ends printed "Well Done" Like everything Flip creates , it employs clever word play, and fresh ideas.I recommend it. |

| I would search in the for sale section of this forum (when you have sufficient posts). Perhaps one of the readers of this thread will have them to sell. |

| "Fresh Fish Sold Here Today" is the older version. Still available from Abbott's I believe. |
