A while ago Angelo Carbone shared a video with me of a performance of his Demi Deck. I had no clue as to how it could possibly work. Of course, it is not real magic so you can always backtrack…. But it looks so good! He sold the rights to Murphy’s who were finally able to have it manufactured.

I preordered a bunch and have them in stock right now. You will not be disappointed.

I also decided to shoot my own trailer/demo so you can clearly see the effect from beginning to end.

►Demi Deck:

Angelo Carbone brings the grandest of stage illusions… cutting a person in half… to the palm of your hand.

Imagine taking an ordinary deck of cards, putting it inside the case, and with a slice of the blade you cut the deck in half, showing both ends. Then with a few kind words, magically heal the deck back together.

This is a self-contained illusion that uses any poker-sized deck of cards, even a borrowed one. The tutorial includes multiple handlings and routines.

►Marvel Card Guard Set:

These are the first two Marvel Card Guard and gaffed deck sets.

The metal card guard that is included has a reproduction of the back design on one side and an image of the character on the other. It also has six spots that can be used to perform the Jack Kent Tillar Blister Effect with suites and some numbers. In addition to the card guard, you get a gimmicked deck of cards that has been custom designed to include many images of the specific Marvel character.

Black Panther Cards And Guard Set: In addition to the branded card guard, you get a matching “invisible Deck.”

Spider-Man Cards And Guard Set: In addition to the branded card guard, you get a matching marked cards.

►Progressive Bills:

A routine right out of Meir Yedid’s professional stage and parlor acts. One he has been performing for most of his career. This is a quick version of the bill repeat plot that is logical, self-working, and has a powerful “applauds cue” ending. The brilliant part of the method is that the big finale serves as the secret gimmick throughout the routine. The routine ends with a flash unfold that produces the gimmick to great applauds.

It is completely self-contained, packs small (fits in a wallet or envelope), always ready to perform, ideal for stage and platform shows, a perfect Emcee routine and can even be a hit in family and children’s shows.

If you can’t make it to our live show on Friday the 13^th, I thought you might enjoy this unprecedented short video segment that appeared on 60 Minutes. The TV show filmed Marc Salem’s Broadway show and included commentary and interviews. You will get a feel for what to expect on Friday.

Although we could not get a high-quality video it is worth watching: HERE

I recommend buying tickets in advance, but you can also show up at the theater with cash!
