Does anyone have this little wood item that can produce a card from a tiny little wood box? It was made by Wild Magic and haven't seen one available anywhere. Not sure of its workings but wanted some insight on the prop. Looks like a nice effect and I think it sold for under $50.

Hi Chris
You can find the principle in Tarbell (surprise!) You'll need to look for it. Not a bad trick, but there's a certain "fiddle factor" that doesn't appeal to me. I'm relatively certain this small one is no longer being sold new. It's also been manufactured in a large remote control version over the last few years = same basic idea. (Less obvious "fiddle" because this one is not a close-up item.) Julie |

The 'best' version was by Eric Mason and called Pandora's Box. It used to be sold by Repro Magic but has been off the market many years. They used a little metal pill box. It may be described in the Mason book but I no longer have it to check.

Yes Chris- Madhatter magic has this and is selling it for $15.00! I bought one off of them and really am enjoying it. I had to replace a little something on it, but it was super easy to do and I found waht I needed for $2.00 at a fabric store. This is a very visual way of seemingly showing a signed card popping out of a little box smaller than a card, without it being folded. I just checked Madhatter and they are still selling them for $15.00!
Best, RNK
