While ordering the above items James mentioned that he has a new trick by Mark Elsdon that I would like that nobody else has yet. It combines three plots into one. An any card at any number, mind reading, and a lie detector.

This is a cute item you can carry with you and use. Self-working, inexpensive and fun to do.

The first version for Unbelievalope was just a variation of David Regal’s Special Delivery using a redesigned Sam Berland envelope that was originally released in 1937 as the Devil Dollar.

I have always been fascinated with the rising cards plot, bought many versions, but never really performed any of the routines. I almost put out a version.

At the end of 2019 during my exclusive Gene Maze Tribute Lectures, I had several recurring themes. One of them was how switches are magic and how many of the tricks we do involve switches even though we don’t realize it.

A couple of weeks ago a friend of mine called me to tell me about this trick that he thought I would really like and should carry.

One of my favorite pocket illusions to carry around and show people is Tenyo’s Sakkaku Scale.

Around a million years ago I used to be Marshall Brodien’s understudy. Whenever he didn’t want to do a trade show in New York City pitching his magic product line I would get the gig.

At some point I started seeing the DIY acronym everywhere and I had no idea what it meant. When I looked it up it stood for Do It Yourself (the M in the title is for Magic).

I am sure that this is the only place you can buy autographed items from the two most successful American mentalists of our lifetime.
