Stage & Silk Magic
Direct from Jerry Mentzer's Lecture! The patter story and presentation are the key to this terrific effect. A small prop that plays really big! In his terrific adaptation of the well known "Traffic Sign" trick, David Hemingway has come up with a real winner. Through special arrangement with Mr. Hemingway, Magic Methods is proud to offer this tremendous effect. In "Travel Trouble" a hand with a pointing finger (like the one illustrated) is used instead of the traditional arrow. The patter story has to do with the troubles the performer had finding the theater, school, church at which he is performing. To climax a great routine, the performer remarks, "It's bad enough to make you get your eyes checked!" And, with that pronouncement, the sign changes into a large Eye Exam Chart!! When in use, the sign with the pointing hand is nine by nine inches. It opens into a nine by eighteen inch Eye Exam Chart! Silk screened in black and red on white vinyl. Should it become soiled through use, the vinyl can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Send for your "Travel Trouble" today. You'll be pleased both with the equipment and the patter story. PRICE-$20.00 
HIMBER RING SIGNET STYLE
This ring is a different shape, but will work virtually all the same effects as the Wedding Band design. Also gold plated and size 9. Complete with instructions for the miracle routine of linking of three borrowed rings. While linked, each spectator identifies his own ring!! If you do not already possess a Himber Ring, do not pass up this opportunity to get one at the low price.Note: The Himber Ring is used as a secret gimmick; the spectators should not be aware you have a ring involved. You certainly do not wear it so the size need not fit your finger PRICE-$55.00 
HIMBER RING WEDDING BAND STYLE
Again available after many years! The ring we have is virtually identical in appearance to the original Himber Wedding Band! Innocent in appearance, it can be casually handled by spectators without divulging its secret. Attractive, but not so extravagant in design that it attracts unwanted attention. The ring is gold plated and is size 9. (See note about Himber Rings above to understand why ring size is not important in most routines.) Considering the mind boggling effects possible with the ring, the price is most reasonable. With instructions for the linking of three borrowed rings. PRICE-$55.00 
McCOMB-ICAL CARDS ACROSS
Billy McComb has performed this professional version of 'Cards Across' for years as part of his standard repertoire. It is very clean looking, very puzzling, and very easy to do, almost automatic! Ten red backed cards are counted by the performer and given to one spectator to hold. Ten blue backed cards are then counted out and given to the second spectator for safe-keeping. With appropriate pantomime gestures, three red backed cards are seemingly caused to travel from one spectator into the packet of cards hold by the second spectator. Sure enough, when the red backed packet is counted, there are only seven cards! And there in the packet of blue backed cards are three cards with red backs; thirteen cards in all!! The McComb-ical Cards Across is essentially self working. No sleights. No moves. No skill. All that is required is the small packet of cards, yet the effect "plays" big enough to use on the largest stage. The easiest version for 'Cards Across' ever seen. A true "professional" routinePRICE-$12.00 
HYPNOTIC 10 CARD POKER DEMONSTRATION
A professional presentation by Larry Becker!! An outstanding "Stand Up" poker deal presentation! Through special arrangement with Larry Becker, Magic Methods is pleased to offer it to our customers. In the trick the performer wins several poker hands from two apparently hypnotized assistants. As a climax he wins a $2000 bet with a full house! Most amazing of all, he has predicted this in advance!! Centerpiece of this fine affect is a bright vinyl signboard approx. 11 by 17 inches with the rank of poker hands. The sign serves two purposes in the presentation. For those who are not serious poker players, it lists the poker hand ranking so they can easily follow. And, the back of the sign bears the prediction! The signboard provided has a transparent vinyl pocket covering the entire rear of the sign. It contains a preprinted prediction that you will win the final bet. Extra pieces of cardstock are included so you can customize the prediction to suit your desires. The effect is supplied complete with jumbo cards, the special signboard, and Larry Becker's own instructions for the routine. Easy to perform. Capable of either a humorous or serious presentation. PRICE-$32.50 
DOUBLE KNOTS
Colorful magic that will fit any act!! A solid color scarf is shown and a knot is tied in its center. As the performer blows upon the knot, the knot visibly dissolves and the scarf splits into two scarves!! Easy to do and adaptable to nearly any magic act. The effect can be used in many ways. For example, you can use the scarves to cover the production of additional scarves, glasses of liquid, or the appearance of doves! This novel and appealing effect is limited only by your imagination. Supplied complete with scarves and instructions. 18 inch size-$10.00 24 inch size-$15.00 
TERRIFIC TRIPLE
Here is an effect which is sure to be popular with magicians. A visual production of scarves which is as easy to set up and perform as it is pretty! The performer displays a scarf and ties a knot in it-THE KNOT DISSOLVES AND THE SCARF VISIBLY SPLITS INTO TWO SCARVES!! The two are then tied together, tossed into the air and they come down with a third scarf knotted between them. The three scarves make ideal cover for further productions of silks or doves. Easy to do and no hidden gimmicks are required. Complete with scarves. 18 inch size-$12.50 24 inch size-$17.50 
20TH CENTURY SILKS
Few effects in all magic are more colorful, more puzzling, and at the same time as easy to do as the beautiful Twentieth Century Silks effect. For those not familiar with the trick, two solid color handkerchiefs are tied together and placed aside in a drinking glass or in the performer's pocket. A third handkerchief, this one rainbow colored, is displayed and then caused to vanish. When the two previously tied handkerchiefs are pulled from the glass, the rainbow colored handkerchief is seen tied between them!! The handkerchiefs can then be untied and used in other effects where you might wish to use them. The handkerchiefs are unprepared. |
Complete with instructions, two solid color handkerchiefs and two duplicate rainbow colored handkerchiefs. 18 inch size. Pure China silk.
PRICE-$32.50
FLIP SILK PRODUCTION
Instructions Only
Here is a very fine way to produce a number of silk handkerchiefs for use in your act! The effect is showy, colorful, and has lots of action. You flip a silk handkerchief out into the air, and a contrasting color handkerchief appears tied to the corner of the first one. Untie them, then flip out the new one, and another handkerchief appears! Repeat several times if you wish. This makes a superb lead-in effect for other tricks with scarves, or to precede a production from the handkerchiefs. Silks from 18 inch size to as large as 36 inch size are best for the production. Four or five silks are a convenient number to produce. The special method of folding the silks eliminates many of the problems associated with prior methods.PRICE-$3.00
NOSE TO NOSE
A great trick for any audience! Four pictures of clowns are shown. The four are identical except for the noses, which are different colors. A spectator freely chooses one of the clowns . After several wrong, but funny guesses, the magician reluctantly gives up. When he turns around to face the audience, he is seen to be wearing a clown nose the same color as the spectator's chosen clown! Original idea by Karrell Fox. Strong effect, very funny, and very easy to do! PRICE-$12.50
