David...

Card "Fanning Powder" is actually ZINC STEARATE.--available relatively cheap at most pharmacies.

It is a drying agent. (Ask the pharmacist) >>> Do not inhale the "dust"~!<<<<

Years ago, it was used as a talcum powder (baby diapers). Then it was realized that the baby could easily be inhaling the fine dust. Not good for infant's lungs!

When I treat a deck of cards, I always get a little on my hands, because, after treating the cards, they must be "exercised" (!!!???). I liked the "feel" of it. You MAY find it helps you with sweaty palms.

If it's not available easily in Sweden, I can mail you a couple spoons full! I would just put a spoon full in a plastic sandwich bag. It would take up no space in an envelope, and customs wouldn't bother it.

I was going to offer you a few old English Pennies, but Dale O'Neill is a lot closer!

I tried the link, but could not get it...I probably entered it incorrectly.

Paste that (The performer is more important than the prop!) on your shaving mirror!!!!!!!!!!!!! hee hee!

If you are able to get access to old video tapes of comedians like JACK BENNY, or GEORGE BURNS, STUDY them (TIMING!!!;) One of the all time great Jack Benny "bits" was the "hold up man" sketch. The guy pulls a gun and demands of Jack: "Your money or your life!" There's a five second (!) pause. The crook repeats: "Your money or your life!" Another five second delay. Finally, Benny responds, "I'm thinking it over."

The audience LAUGHED!!!!!! (Benny's "persona" was that of a miser)

I wouldn't make book on that!
