    I was excited to introduce you to a new product that allows you to do a fast calculation demonstration. It is beautifully made of wood using Maple and Oak. They were sitting at the warehouse for the past two weeks and yesterday as I was about to shoot a video trailer for them and photograph them, I noticed a minor flaw with the way they were made. So, I am going to wait until one of the pieces is replaced before I launch them.

    So instead of a new physical product this week I am going to offer you a video download that is inexpensive and can be learned in minutes. Although I did add five more discounted Joker Magic products this week (see below).

    Over the years I traveled and hung out with Jerry Andrus dozens if not hundreds of times. At hotels, restaurants, airports, conventions, on trains, on busses and was even given a lesson on how to cross the street in New York City in order to be least disruptive to traffic.

    Of his many creations, the one routine I saw him perform the most, was his Two Card Trick (which wasn’t really a card trick). He would always carry the coins in his pocket and always have cards handy. And that is all he needed for this apparently impromptu routine he would do for wait staff at restaurants, for kids, for just about anyone who was standing around him. I am pretty sure it is the routine he performed the most often during his lifetime… and now you can too!

    The Two Card Trick

    The Two Card Trick:
    Jerry would start out by asking, “Have you ever heard of the two-card trick?” He then has two cards pointed at. The cards are removed and shown on both sides.

    Then, suddenly, a coin appears between them, and another, and another, and another… Until his hands are full of coins and he would dump them into the spectator’s cupped hands. He managed to create a magical and funny moment that people screamed over.

    Watch & buy: HERE

    Warehouse Finds, Limited Quantities & Great Prices:
    This is part of a large Joker Magic inventory I purchased recently. I keep getting contacted about the items that sold out. Many of these items are no longer being manufactured and the ones that are will not be restocked. Once they are gone… they are gone.

    â–şCrossed Cards:
    The classic Doug Bennett routine with card cases that are criss-crossing through each other. A card selected from the red deck ends up inside the blue deck even though it is impossible.

    Info and buy: HERE

    â–şFlipper Chinese Coin:
    A double-sided version of Bob Swadling’s Flipper Coin made out of the Gold/Black Chinese coins.

    Info and buy: HERE

    â–şChinese Coinholder:
    A Folding coin made from the Gold/Black Chinese coin that comes with a routine using a plastic coin holder.

    Info and buy: HERE

    â–şClone Cube:
    A very nice set of gaffs made of cubes with different colored surfaces. The main visual is of showing a cube on all sides and then rolling it on the table. Amazingly and visually… it turns into two cubes that can be shown on all sides.

    Info and buy: HERE

    â–şCube 4 You:
    A cube is placed in the spectator’s hand that gets crushed while in their possession.

    Info and buy: HERE

    Until next time, Meir

    CATCH ME & WINCATCH ME & WIN
    MORE INFO & BUY: HERE

    Gene Maze’s fantastic chain routine combines the Fast & Loose or Endless Chain routines with the classic Three Card Monte and Three Shell Game scams. When the routine was originally published many top pros built their own sets and put it into their shows.

    The object is for the spectator to pick the peg that catches. No matter how hard they try they can’t find it. Even though you keep making it easier and giving them tips, they always fail. Of course, the secret lies in the fact that you have total control of whether the spectator wins or loses.
    MAGICIAN BADGEMAGICIAN BADGE
    MORE INFO & BUY: HERE

    This is a real Magician Badge that was fashioned on the badges used by law enforcement agencies around the world. It adds a level credibility to magicians while at the same time adding humor to your introductions. It is a great icebreaker.

    The next time you walk up to strangers you can pull out the badge as you say your name and title of Magician. It causes a moment of panic followed by relief and laughter.
    PING PONG BALL VASEPING PONG BALL VASE
    MORE INFO & BUY: HERE

    A beautiful hand spun Ping Pong Ball Vase made of a single piece of exotic wood. It comes with a Ping Pong ball and a matching shell (ball vase type).

    This is one of the few Ball Vases that uses a recognizable object, or what is termed an organic prop. Since the popularity of Beer Pong, that uses the same balls, has far surpassed the popularity of Table Tennis this has become a very common object.
    CROCHET SPONGE BALLSCROCHET SPONGE BALLS
    MORE INFO & BUY: HERE

    These are hand-made crochet sponge balls. Similar to the crochet balls used for the Cups & Balls and Chop Cup routines except that instead of cork on the inside there is a sponge ball.
    They look just like the cork balls but handle much easier and can be manipulated in many ways that would be impossible with cork balls. They can easily be manipulated using most techniques invented for solid balls and sponge balls. Can also be used for the Benson Bowl Routine or even a sponge ball routine.
