Something I am working on...
In 1863 one of the most haunting battles in American history occurred in Gettysburg, PA. Many tragedies happened those 3 fateful days. A battle that might not have happened if not for chance resulted in the deaths of 50,000 people! Of those 50,000 lost souls, but one unfortunate was a civilian. A volunteer take a locket and another a map. They are told little about both in the beginning and that all will make sense soon. 32 cars consisting of men and women who lived quiet normal lies until the War Between the States. Brothers, sisters, sons and daughters of the Union and Confederate forces. Torn apart by providence for a house divided against itself cannot stand! Includes: - 32 distressed cabinet cards! - A locket with photo and secret reveal! - A map of Gettysburg! - emailed instructions on how to perform!

What is the effect? |

Looks very interesting -- what is the effect? There was indeed only one civilian killed at Gettysburg, so that sounds perfect for a plot point. One historical point, however: Somewhere between 7,000 and 9,000 men were killed in the three day battle. The 50,000 number refers to total casualties -- killed, wounded, missing and taken prisoner.

Hey Marc, I use to do living history programs at Gettysburg with the U.S. Regulars at Meads Hq. As reenactor volunteers we had the honor of camping out on the battlefield at night. That was always a very creepy experience. But probably even more so to any civilian who saw us moving around at night from a distance. Especially on a foggy night.
Vince, good to see some CW based effects. Looking forward to learning more about this.

I too enjoyed meeting you and seeing you perform at the ECSS. The second bloodiest battle of the Civil War was fought at Allatoona Pass (near where I live in Georgia), where 1,600 men died in one day. A civilian named John Clayton (whose house was occupied by Union forces) died from shock shortly after the battle. I am curious as to whether your props/effect can be adapted to my area's venue. Please PM me.

Based on the pics that Vince shared above, with the included portraits of Abe Lincoln and Jefferson Davis in front of their respective flags, I'm going to guess that this is an OOTW effect, wherein spec unknowingly separates Union from Confederate...
Close? Anyway, Vince's cards are great! He made a similar set for me for White Star, and these for Blue/Gray look just as good or even better. |

That’s my guess as well Seth.
