Meir’s Muses
MyMagic eNewsletter #1,266
January 8, 2025
During the last century I did a lecture tour through Japan. After one of the lectures, we went out for a meal because the magicians wanted me to meet this kid who was doing creative magic that was fooling everyone. They knew he was going to fool me… which he did.
That kid was Masuda who later released some of the routines I saw and continued to produce some amazing magic using even more amazing methods. I usually buy everything that his name is attached to.
One of his little-known routines is his vanishing Statue of Liberty postcard which came out a few years ago. This updated version “1.1” works the same way but with one minor change. It is done inside a plastic sleeve which can then be handed out for examination.
►Liberty Vanish 1.1:
This is a terrific visual that has been improved to be done inside a clear bag that will allow you to hand it out for examination in the end.
The visual effect begins by showing a postcard with of the Statue Of Liberty pictured on the front. With a flick of the finger or a wave of the hand the statue completely disappears, and the postcard can be shown on both sides and your hands are empty. If you decide to use the new handling inside a clear plastic bag you will also be able to hand the bagged card for examination.

►ProControl:
ProControl is a simple secret that will allow you to control selected cards at will. A beginner can learn ProControl in minutes and a professional will use ProControl because of its ease of use that enables you to concentrate on the other aspects of your performance. Forget about crimps, finger breaks, or other traditional methods. This method is easy and guaranteed to work 100% of the time.
As a special bonus you are taught the deviously simple Gilles Couture Swivel Cut Control that will allow you to control cards to the top of the deck within a simple flourish.

►Time Warp Wallet:
David Solomon’s Time Warp Wallet has been off the market for many years. It accomplishes an impossible card routine that no other wallet can.
The main routine has you name your favorite card and your friend name any other card. Your card is lost anywhere in the deck as you attempt to cut to it. You cut to a card which you claim is your favorite, place it in the wallet as you remove some money. You then offer your friend the opportunity to win the money if they can cut to their card. Of course, they can’t, and you then explain why. When the wallet is opened you show that the card you placed inside was your favorite card and the card that was behind a clear window the entire time was their freely named card.

“Some speakers have the magic. They are compelling and controlling, but not aggressive. Their voice instantly commands attention.”
