As far as I know nobody has posted a review of this effect yet because since there's no search feature right now I don't feel like searching through hundreds of pages trying to find it:
The Effect One effect possible with MEMENTO: A card is freely selected from a deck and returned. The magician points to a card box that has been in view from the start. Inside is found a clear crystal block that showcases a playing card...The card as the words "My Favorite Card" written across its face... The card is an exact match for the selection! Another effect possible with MEMENTO: A spectator signs a card and returns it to the deck. The magician reaches into his pocket and INSTANTLY removes a crystal clear block that contains the signed card. BEAUTIFUL AND BAFFLING Any card can be selected A different card every time Easy to do, with solid impact Includes a beveled, crystal clear block manufactured exclusively for Memento, special gimmicks, additional supplies and an instructional DVD. My Review: Price: For what you get I think it's a great deal. 5/5 Teaching: The teaching is great and is great quality there's nothing left untouched, but I don't really like the bonus effect at all because it's a signed card to the block and since you can't hand it out you have a souvenir that you can't give out to the spectator so it's not exactly great thinking on David's part but other than that it's great. 5/5 Quality of materials: the stuff that comes with it is great and if treated properly this stuff will last you a lifetime and will be a great addition to many card workers/mentalists arsenal. Dificulty: I'd say if you can hold a deck of cards you can perform this effect you couldn't get much easier than this effect, if you buy it and need some help let me know and I'll PM you my handling of it that makes things so much easier and all the heat is taken off of you. The angles are great but you can't let people get right behind you, other than that you have got great angles for this effect. Applications: This would be a great effect for close-up workers but not really for stage and will be great for mentalists and card magicians because it's both card magic and mentalism as well because it's kind of like a thought of card effect. Overall: I'd say it's a great effect and even though you can't hand it out most people won't care because they'll really believe that it is trapped inside that clear lucite box anyways and some of the best effects out there aren't examinable (Invisible Deck comes to mind and also Twisted Sisters and Extreme Burn or most bill switches) and they still kill when we perform them, I'm going to give it a solid 5/5 for this, if you liked the review please comment. |

Should this review be at "latest and greatest"?

I think that only Steve can post on the Latest & Greatest but I could be wrong.

There is a long running thread in Latest and greatest, and that thread is probably getting more eyeballs now - especially with ongoing comments from David Regal.
You may want to post this there too to the existing thread. Thanks for the great review.

I never even know there was a Memento 2 Jeff, the best thing to do is to talk to David, you can find him on Facebook and here.
