I remember several years ago Michael Ammar released his own cups and balls to the magic market. I understand these didn't go down to well in general. I was looking to find out about them - dimensions, photographs etc. but could find nothing on the internet.

Surely some documentation of these Ammar cups exists on the web?

Thanks guys!

Kevin,

You can find them in Bill's wonderful museum. They are 3rd from the bottom of the trads. kind of half way between a trad and a rounded top cup.

Thanks Bri, I did scan the C&B Museum, must have overlooked them.

They are interesting cups!!

Anymore info would be great.

Thanks,

From what I understand, Chris Reesman made these for Michael to fit the smaller "Fab Fruit" that is now available. The smaller fruit didn't have the same impact in a bigger cup. Being a smaller set of cups, it also helped with pocket management since Michael works from his coat pockets instead of a pouch or servante.

Unfortunately, the squarish shape didn't really catch on with C&B users, and it didn't help that Chris closed up shop and dropped out of the magic scene a little time later.

Mr Ammar uses cups called Jonson cups.

I believe that was referenced in the other thread.
