Over thirty years ago a man named Bob Mason created an effect that stood the test of time BAM is that effect. Most of you have never heard the name Bob Mason or know of his body of work and this is why I wish to share a brief insight with you today into one of the great minds of Mentalism.
After receiving hundreds of requests for Bob Masons Bam over the last couple of years the wait for this masterpiece is over. Originally released in 1977 in very low numbers and mostly around the Dayton and Cincinnati areas of Ohio the effect had only one small problem. The reset was so confusing it made its use limited, in walk around and multiple shows in the same day, since most could not figure it out. This problem is now fixed. When we obtained the rights to Bobs work we also were given boxes of notebooks and such. It was only yesterday we recovered Bam and his original personal routine and his original notes for the instructions allowing us to fix the problem of the reset. In the original manuscript the wording was a bit confusing and most people including myself read it one way when it should have been read the other way. This took many hours of work to complete. For the next three people who email me at either of my emails I will share you a copy of this new release of BAM with you. This is limited to only three. The effect is amazing as you will soon see. Also, it can be done by mentalist or magicians making Bob Masons Bam very unique. For those of you who do not know of BAM here is a description as written in 1977. B A M is a brand new effect unlike anything you have ever seen It is without a doubt…the world’s fastest card location! Magician shuffles a regular deck and deals off 24 cards into a face-down stack. This stack is then divided into two stacks of 12 cards each at the direction of a spectator. No forcing. Spectator selects one of the stacks and the other is discarded. This stack of 12 cards is divided into two stacks of 6 cards each. (at the desecration of the Spectator) The spectator now thinks of one of the cards in this group of 6 cards. A moment later the magician picks up the stack and puts it behind his back and instantly brings one card out and tosses it face down on the table. The spectator names his card. The card on the table is turned over…. It is his chosen card. No sleight of hand Uses just a regular deck of cards No duplicate cards No forces of any kind No Mathematics No questions asked at anytime You can learn it in ten minutes time You can get it ready to do again in 30 seconds! No “outs†No peeking at cards 100% sure The magician never knows what cards will end up in the group It borders on the “IMPOSSIBLE†So what do you think? I will add no peeking is an understatement you do not know the name of the card the spectator was thinking of until you turn over the card on the table or the spectator tells you. It’s like you just knew that was there card. How’s that for psychic. BAM Bill Montana |

BAM all three are gone. If you made it in time Congrats. If you missed it you may have gotten something else from the archive for trying. This was the fastest the copies went. Hope you all enjoy the new work. Please feel to let me know your thought on this effect.

Hey lads,
For once I didn't miss out on some free stuff One of the perks being home on a saturday night though in my defense I'm in crutches due to footballing injury..the joys! The effect is actually very very clever,I have no idea how anyone would be able to come up with something like this..I can only imagine the time involved to create such an effect. Fair play to Bob Mason The effect itself is simple to perform yet with the right presentation I think could be quite powerful..Im not into cards myself but I actually really like this..minutes after reading the method I tried it on my long suffering girlfriend and bro,went down well! Even my girlfriend smiled with approval..a rare thing indeed..well outside the bedroom anyways... Good stuff! Pete |

Only had time to run through this once, but Pete has it right- the correct presentation and this will fool the pants off people (therefore, I would suggest only performing this for people you would like to see pantless ).
Seriously, this is good stuff as was the "Ultra Die Prophecy" I received from Bill the other day. Check out his website if you haven't already. JD |

Hi Guys, Some of you asked about what false mix was used by Bob Mason. Bob learned his false mix from Dai Vernon. This is the sloppy looking mix that's in many books on magic. The cards from the top go on the bottom and cards form the bottom go on top...and its done sloppy. I have forgotten its exact name of this but the veg description should point you to this mix with out revealing secrets in the open forum. Also, I will find the original notes written by Bob and post them in the Banquet in a couple of days. He also used something called an up and down shuffle it is an alternative to the Faro and very easy to do.

The concept is really smart and for that reason it is good value for the asked price.
