SUPERIOR HYDROSTATIC GLASS
In the classic Hydrostatic Glass trick a glass full of liquid is covered with a piece of paper or a postcard size card and then the entire affair is inverted. Yet when the paper is peeled away from the mouth of the glass - the liquid remains mysteriously suspended up inside in the glass. It stays there until the spectators say "Go!" and the liquid falls out of the glass into an ice bucket or other container to catch the liquid. Use water, milk, fruit juice, etc. it doesn't matter. Carbonated liquids do not work so well because the carbonation can cause a problem with the gimmick.

The glass supplied is a heavy weight twelve ounce glass tumbler, properly prepared for the trick. The gimmick used is lathe machined from a 3/16 thick piece of Plexiglass. Very nicely made-truly professional quality. To use or to collect as an example of really well made magic. With five pages of color illustrated instructions. Large enough for presentation on stage, yet suitable for close range as behind a bar. An excellent presentation of the effect by Alan Shaxon is included in the March 2004 issue of Magic-The Magazine for Magicians, and is reprinted from Shaxon's book My Kind of Magic, circa 1970.

This is the type of top quality magic equipment that performers kick themselves for not buying while it is available. Act now.

COIN PURSES
Goshman Style
For many years Albert Goshman supplied the magic world with a nice sized snap coin purse which many close up magicians used. In fact many coin effects were built around that particular purse. Following Albert's death the purses were no longer available--until now. We now can supply from stock the Goshman type purse like the one shown in the illustration.

TED LESLEY'S
WORKING PERFORMER'S MARKED DECK MANUAL
A 52-page, illustrated paper- back book that comes complete with a set of the specially manufactured, pressure-sensitive, transfer marking system, which is enough to mark a deck, plus five more. (This is the official system created by Ted Lesley from Berlin.)

There are many marked decks available for the magician, but almost without exception it is difficult to read the back of the deck. The more concealed the marking, the harder it is for the magi to read the deck. We have all seen magicians peering intently at the back of cards and we all know that the cards are marked.

The Ted Lesley system can be clearly seen and read from several feet. Despite the fact that the performer can read the cards, the spectator just cannot find the secret yet bold markings.

LEARN THE ULTIMATE IN CARD MAGIC

Many marvelous routines are included. Learn to use the marked deck without giving away the secrets. Besides the marking system and instructions on how to apply it, this book includes these routines: The impossible card location, The spectator as mentalist, Marked stacks, Photostatic reflexes, Mental wonder, Do as I do, Do as I do 2, Do as I do 3, The doubled thought, Perfect harmony, Impossible coincidence, Mass-clairvoyance, A letter from Punx, The lucky card, Twice blessed, What the stars foretell, Memory, Parapsychic control, Zennerism, The peek pack prediction, Another peek pack prediction, and Jumbo

Dan Garrett and Allen Owens' PLASTIC CASH-IMPROVED
WARNING: PLASTIC CASH HAS SUCH A POWERFUL IMPACT ON AUDIENCES THAT IT WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU TO FOLLOW IT WITH ANOTHER EFFECT! Here's what the spectator actually does. He removes his own dollar bill from his pocket and tears it in half. He retains one half and actually burns the remaining half bill. You don't even touch it. As the dying of burning green reflect in his eyes, you propose to restore the consumed currency to its original form. Tongue-in-cheek you promise to reimburse him for fifty cents if you fail. The audience now believes your original claim to be false. Yet through some devilish twist of the macabre you remove from your wallet, among your credit cards, a half dollar bill LAMINATED IN PLASTIC. The serial number of the laminated bill matches the spectator's other half. But wait, oh Sage, the TEAR matches perfectly as well. It is without a doubt the matching half. But the spectator burned it himself! Illustrated booklet of instructions and all necessary materials are included.

CHAIN OF EIGHT
For many years magicians have asked us to release this brilliant and entertaining routine... a modern version of the famous race-course swindle... "Pricking the Garter". Time and again, the spectator fails to choose the loop of chain which will "catch" his finger. Although completely baffling to the onlooker... it is very easy to do. The illustrated instructions make it easy to learn. Complete with first-class, factory made, "ball chain" apparatus. The chain is 58 inches long made in a continuous loop. Nickel finish.. Ready to work at a moment's notice. It is the ideal pocket trick.

RABBIT IN THE HAT TRICK
A great trick for children's shows or for general audiences! Magician holds a hat with a Rabbit hand puppet inside. After a brief conversation with the rabbit, the magician decides to let the rabbit attempt to do a magic trick. A card is selected from a deck and then the deck is dropped into the hat (If performing for children use an alphabet deck.). After much comedy and funny situations and after several attempts, the rabbit comes up with the selected card! The cute little white rabbit in a felt hat makes it all possible. Complete with presentational routine. Another very good presentation for the Rabbit in the Hat is the lead-off trick in the book Kid Stuff by Frances Ireland Marshall. The photo shows the actual Rabbit in the Hat we supply. Very nicely made. A prop that will last years!

SEEING IS BELIEVING
One of the most magical close-up effects possible is tearing a borrowed bill into many pieces and then restoring it! For years one of the most convincing methods has been the one called "Seeing is Believing". A bill is borrowed, then folded and openly tom into tiny pieces that are clearly seen, yet the bill magically restores!

In his lecture, Jerry Mentzer teaches a way for performing the basic effect but with the breakthrough of no need for the performer to reach into a pocket, no lapping, and no loose extra pieces to worry about!!! Supplied is the basic "Seeing is Believing" effect plus Jerry's lecture information which allows for such extremely clean handling of the borrowed bill during the restoration of the bill and immediately after-the times when the spectators' attention is focused on the bill. You will have to make one trip to your local office supply store and spend a few extra bucks for a special adhesive available at all large office supply houses. But the trip to the store will give you a miracle looking bill restoration. Seeing is Believing plus the special lecture instructions.
