Although, this has been around for a few years now, I just discovered it myself. So this might be old to others, but its new to me. I have to say I really like it a lot. As a restaurant worker, this fits the bill perfectly. Easy to perform, visual, resets and I'm able to give out a souvenir with my contact information on it. I love the idea of having a chosen card revealed by being tagged. It got me to thinking and wondering, are there any variations or other methods out there, besides Tag by JB Magic and Chastain Criswell that uses a tag as part of the routine?

I own this effect , use you business card instead of the TAG. And you sign the card under their name for a souvenir with " your" autograph on it. I use it meet girls at nightclubs , haha , just kidding . Have fun with it . I did this trick for homeless people in Key West with dollar bills and let them keep the card with the bill !!!!

CMMAGIC,
Thanks for the suggestion about the business card. I decided to print up some smaller tags with my contact information on it instead i.e. name, phone number and email address. |

I like the homeless magic angle.

You could do something similar with labels -the kind that have adhesive on the back. The spectator could sign the card on the front and take a label (with your business info on it) and stick it to the back. When the card is "found" it would have both the signature and your info on it. I may try it with my Jester - ultimate rising card trick. It would fit in nicely. I'm new here. I took a chance and already mentioned it, but is it ok to mention a trick I've developed, or is it considered self promotional and something I shouldn't do?

I shrunk my busines card to about 1/2" by 1". It really looks good that small and it is much easier to tie than a larger card. The spectator is also more likely to keep it.

You might want to check out the minicards made by Moo.
You can print whatever you like on the cards and they are a great size for attaching to a card instead of a tag. Syd |

I've settled on making my own labels. Bright yellow with my contact info printed on them.
