The newest Magic Wagon item, Ultimate Coincidence, is available now! Here is the ad copy...
This has to be one of the strongest mentalism effects we have ever produced! The performer shows what will be the prediction outcome and places it inside an envelope. The envelope is then placed on a small wooden stand where it remains in full view. Two spectators are now chosen to participate in an experiment of pairing choice and chance events with playing cards. The performer now asks the first spectator to name the value of any card. There is absolutely no force of any kind, the spectator can really name any number/face card in the deck, even the Joker! Another spectator then picks a card (face down) to get any random suit. Let’s say, for example, the first spectator names the number “8” and the second spectator selects “Spades.” The performer now shows both hands completely empty, picks up the stand, removes the envelope and takes out the prediction. To everyone’s surprise, the prediction inside the envelope IS the Eight of Spades! It is a stunning and inexplicable effect. This is an ingenious and marvelous mechanical method and the engineering behind it is absolutely brilliant! Each stand is completely hand-crafted from natural aged teak wood and measures approximately 7” wide and 6.5” tall. This is unquestionably one truly memorable and baffling effect! And here is the link... http://www.magic-wagon.com/ProductDetail.asp?id=159 Simon |

I would love to hear the advantages this device has over a simple Poc*et Ind*x.

I do not have this, but I prefer Christopher Taylor's great pocket index.

Do people even have "parlors" any longer?
Is there really a place where a prop like this can actually be comfortably played? |

(This handling will be shared in my next book though, so I can't talk too openly about it.) Not going to your pocket before... well that might be a plus, but I still think obsessing about this would be - as Richard Osterlind mentions - magigian's "guilt". And yes, Christopher Taylor's index is top quality!!! Well, I still guess there will be an enviroment to perform with this prop, but I can't justify spending almost 300 for it with the aforementioned arguments. Just my 2p, Andreu |
