Paul Harris Presents
Lubor's Gift Created by Lubor Fiedler Manufactured by Alan Wong The Gift That Keeps on Giving! You open up a stamped shipping carton and remove a colorful gift box --- and then, impossibly, you proceed to put the stamped shipping carton into the gift box. What was once on the outside is now on the inside...and vice versa. Each box fits completely inside the other...again and again. It's a flat-out impossibility --- and yet, there it is! Box, Box, Paradox Lubor's Gift is a completely updated version of Lubor's classic Gozinta Boxes. Paul Harris fell in love with this astonishing paradox, brought it up to date with a new look, then commissioned Alan Wong to collaborate with Lubor Fiedler to do the stunning re-design. Lubor's Gift is the result. This is the only version personally endorsed by its genius inventor, Lubor Fiedler, who uses it in every one of his shows.. An Out-of-the-Box Visual Miracle Magic doesn't get any more organic or visually impactful than this. The two boxes' contrasting colors and sharp design elements are an integral part of the illusion itself, and enable you to perform Lubor's Gift on the largest stage and at the most intimate get together. It's a phenomenal example of "plays big, packs small." Best of all, it's self-contained and nearly self-working; you'll turn your audience's minds inside out within minutes of opening it. Go ahead and hand your spectators both boxes --- there's absolutely nothing for them to find. A Beautiful Package That Packs a Punch Lubor's Gift is precision-made and custom-crafted from the highest quality art board. This is an unforgettable effect, impossible object and collector's item all in one utterly magical package. It's extremely easy to do, and you're guaranteed to have tons of fun performing it. So give your audiences a present they'll never, ever forget with Lubor's Gift! http://www.murphysmagic.com/Product.aspx?id=52196 |

Tenyo had a version of this called Parabox that held a few sponge balls. Very cool concept!

I like the original idea and the new box designs are nice in that they "tell a story". However, calling it a "visual miracle" that will "melt spectators' minds"... serious oversell. It's puzzling. As for magical, I would say it is to a degree but this version less so than the Parabox that preceded it.
I'm not knocking it. Heck, if it was $40, I'd be getting one just for fun. But I think they're hyping it to try to justify the $100 price tag. It's a shame. I think they'd enjoy higher total sales if it was priced more in line with what it's worth. P.S. Yes, I know "worth" is quite subjective. |

Can it hold things? like I can see it making even more sense if it was able to hold stuff. to motivate even showing the boxes. and yea 100 is kinda al ot for me to have some boxes.

That looks amazing. I'd also like to know if there can be an item(s) inside before you start as that would make it pretty exceptional: bring out the box, open it up to reveal a smaller box, open that to pull out 'whatever' it is you wanted to show the audience and then put the bigger box back inside the smaller one.

Hi all. Yes the inner box can be filled right up with anything you would like to carry inside. As far as the price these were very expensive to manufacture. The boxes are perfect nothing glued or stuck on, solid pieces that slide and work every time. Building them this way and in a limited run is why they are priced as they are. We are very excited and proud to be releasing Lubor's wonderful invention

Hi Everyone
A few more details re the price: To get a high quality custom made set of boxes like this..made to Lubor's exact specs, specific paper coating, tolerances etc is a very expensive thing to put together. Alan Wong had to find a commercial box manufacturer who normally makes runs of hundreds of thousands of boxes..and convince them to make a tiny custom run of Lubor's Gift. So that's where the high cost comes in. We could have gone the normal route and adapted/re-glued some existing boxes..but they would not have had the look and feel that Lubor was going for. So we made the call to do whatever it took to make Lubor's dream come true and to create something he would be proud of. This set is really for the professionals or collectors who want the official Lubor Fiedler approved version. For those who love the effect but are looking for something at a lower price…there are a few other versions of Lubors "Gozinta" boxes concept on the market in the 40$-60$ price range. Thanks All!

Wow, the shipping carton is a really good idea for the gozinta boxes. I"m very tempted to get it now because of this.

I was really fascinated by this (as I am by all gozinta boxes) until I realized this is no different than the Driebeck Die which I might add also costs about $100. It's available from Stevens magic. The Driebeck Die unlike this effect has a surprise ending which makes for a really good routine.
