When I first saw Fujiwara’s new release I thought that it can’t look that good live. I was wrong. It looks exactly like what you see in the trailer. Have been playing with it and even performed it a few times. Although you can use it with business cards it looks much better with playing cards.
►Super Business Card Holder:
This is an improved smaller version of the original Super Wallet that was made specifically for playing cards and business cards. And it looks as good live as it does on the trailer.
The most basic effect is to pull out a blank card three-quarters out of your wallet, give it a flick and the blank card visually changes into the selected card or your business card, a prediction card, or any card of that size.

►Zeta Cars:
This is a practical improvement of the classic flower box production where three boxes of flowers were produced from an empty bag.
Using a similar method this version produces four boxes of collectible toy cars which are spring loaded to look like they are 3D.
Once opened the boxes that hold the fake cars are around 7.25” wide, 3.25” deep, and 3.25” high.

►BACK IN STOCK:
You have already purchased well over a hundred Gift Boxes Illusions and they keep selling out, often before I get a chance to announce them. I currently have around half of my last shipment left if you wanted them or needed spares. Also just received more copies of the classic David Roth book.
►Gift Boxes Illusion:
It was originally created by Roger Shepard and first published in 1990 under the name “Turning the tables”, using tabletops, and that is why it is commonly known as Shepard Tables and the Shepard Tabletop Illusion.
In an effort to make the illusion play as a magic routine and to be able to present it standing up, the new artwork was placed on a steel board and the lids of the boxes were made into magnets. This allows you to visually demonstrate the illusion and take credit for the magic.

►David Roth’s Expert Coin Magic:
The legendary David Roth was the most influential and creative coin magician in history. He literally revolutionized the way coin magic was performed and perceived.
This book contains almost all his best routines. The routines, and techniques that created his legacy and that he used to earn a living with, both from lay audiences and magicians.

►LATEST RELEASE:
►Brain Bogglers:
For many years Meir Yedid has been opening his stage, parlor, and formal close-up shows with a series of three optical illusions/brain twisters where he explains how magic works. The premise is that we tell you the truth, but your brain lies to you.
The three optical illusions/brain twisters are the standard Word Skipping Illusion, Cornsweet Illusion, and Thatcher illusion, although they have been modified to optimize the live presentations and make them more interesting.
