Clear Penetration

You show a clear plastic frame with a wide blue border. A playing card is placed in the center of the frame. A solid pencil is now pushed right thru the central opening of the frame. Later it is found that though there is a hole in the card, the clear plastic is quite intact! Easy to do.

This is one of our favorites. A black stick studded with three white stones is shown on both sides. Now, one at a time the gems change color from white to Red, Blue and Yellow! (The colors may vary from one set to another). The colors then fade away and the stones are white again!

With this unique device you can divine not one but two dice. As you turn back, a spectator sets the two dice with any two numbers facing up. The box is then covered with a lid and handed to you. There seems to be no way of knowing the numbers. Yet you correctly divine the top two numbers!

Finger Desecto is a close-up version of Disecto Arm Chopper. You can put all your presentational skill into it to turn it into a 'talk-about' item. A spectator puts her finger thru the central hole of the frame and you visibly pass a steel blade thru her finger, of course without harming her.

This will fool you badly! A card is freely selected by a spectator and replaced on the deck. You give some mysterious passes on the deck and slowly and eerily the selected card starts to rise up without any visual means of support! It "floats" about an inch above the deck and then comes down again. Immediately it can be examined. No thread.

This is another cute little which you would always carry with you. Show a black stick (in this case it is jumbo size). The stick is studded with six different colored jewels on both sides. A color is selected by a spectator. You pass the stick thru your closed fist and immediately all the jewels turn into the color of the selected jewel.

This is a cute little mystery box. The box has two doors - front and back and a couple of holes passing from one side to another. A golden finger ring is placed at the floor of the box and the doors are shut. A magic wand is then passed thru the holes. When opened later, the ring is found hanging from the middle of the wand! Can be examined.

A three-fold plastic frame is displayed. The center panel is transparent while the other two panel folds on either side of the center panel like a bill fold. The frame is now folded as detailed earlier and handed over to someone to hold. When opened later, a previously vanished card is seen to have appeared in the center panel.

These are a pair of pocket size slates that can be used in many ways. Writing appear and disappear, wrong predictions correct themselves, a previously vanished playing card appear between the slates and many more. Quite easy to perform and yet very startling routines can be constructed with these cute magical prop.

Coins appear mysteriously under an inverted transparent glass. The specially prepared board is responsible for this minor miracle. Other routines are also possible with is clever apparatus. The boards are beautifully made and the secret is cleverly concealed. The board looks quite ordinary.

Here is a colorful pocket trick that is hard to beat. You would always love to cary in your pocket and entertain your friends and customers. A multicolored stick is displayed on both sides. A spectator selects any one of the colors. In an instant all the colors change into the selected color! Again the stick is shown on both sides.

This is spooky...tis is haunted! Well, a spectator selects a card, notes it and returns to the deck. The deck is placed on table and a spectator puts a finger on it. The magician chants some mysterious chants and the spectator is asked to lift the finger. Mysteriously the deck cuts itself and at the very selected card!
