Ace of Change (Bicycle Card) - £10.00 
Skill Rating: Intermediate
A card is selected and it is the Ace of Diamonds. The card is rubbed over anything that is the colour green, and immediately the pip on the card changes to green. The card is rubbed again; this time the pip changes to blue. This process is repeated and the pip changes to black and then red again.


Amazing Changing Aces (Bicycle Cards) - £11.99
Skill Rating: Intermediate
Four aces are counted one by one and shown to be all face up. When counted again one ace has turned face down, the cards are counted once more and again an ace has turned face down. The cards are counted again and again until all the cards have turned face down. The cards are shown and an ace has turned face up, but when the back of this ace is shown it has a completely different colour back to the others. The cards are counted again and again to show each ace turn face up and have a completely different colour back to the others. The climax comes when the aces have turned into Kings.

Bang Card - £11.99
Skill Rating: Easy
A very novel prop for the discovery of a "selected" card. A spectator "selects" a card from a deck. It is shuffled back into the deck. Performer introduces a large and colourful "gun", and asks the spectator to ruffle the deck towards the gun. BANG goes the gun, and the selected card appears at the tip of the gun. The audible and visual combination of the production makes for an impact on any audience. Yes, the card is forced for the effect, but we give you five cards in each pack, so you can present this for the same audience with a different card for different shows. This is a large and attractive Gun shaped prop, made durably in board, and offset printed in vibrant colours, which enables you to present a card trick for a large audience. Packs flat.

Beach Parade - £4.99
Skill Rating: Easy
You show a wallet containing four laminated cards. As you recount an amusing patter story about being on the beach with four girls, represented by the four queens, one of the queens is selected by your spectator. You then remove the four laminated cards from the wallet and fan the cards in your hand; the chosen queen is reversed, and has a different coloured back to the rest of the cards. The climax comes when you turn over the remaining three cards; they’re not queens, but pictures of beautiful ladies.

Beyond ESP 2 - £24.99

Boy Meets Girl - £3.99
Skill Rating: Easy
Although love and sex are as old as mankind itself, the world today seems to have developed a rabid fascination for the subject - look at any magazine, TV show, or even the family newspaper. This is a presentation of a number of tricks done with special cards. If you are not familiar with the symbols printed on the cards, they are the biological symbols for male and female. So, "Boy Meets Girl" is just a sneaky way to do some card tricks for people who don't like card tricks. The tricks are so disguised by the use of symbol cards that they seem to be used merely to illustrate a scientific discussion.
Contributions from Ted Annemann, Martin Gardner, Norman Gilbreath, Max Holden, Bob Hummer, Stewart James, Jay & Frances Marshall, Ed Marlo and others make this series of packet tricks mystifying as well as charming.

Card-toon - £13.99
Skill Rating: Intermediate
This is quite possibly the most charming card trick ever invented! A spectator names any card (no force). You then reveal that the entire deck has little stick-figure magicians drawn on it. Then, to the general delight of all onlookers, the end of the deck is flicked, the cards rush by one at a time, and the drawings become an animated cartoon! The stick-figure magician pulls a card from his top hat and turns it over to reveal that it is the same card that the spectator named! This can be repeated immediately with any card as many times as you like. It’s one of those rare tricks that’s even more amazing the second time you see it, yet there are no difficult sleights required.

Cigarette thru Playing Card (Bicycle Card) - £4.99
Skill Rating: Intermediate
This is an incredible penetration effect, where a borrowed cigarette penetrates through the middle of a selected card. A deck of cards is fanned out and a card is selected by the spectator, which is examined and can even be signed. The card is turned over and a borrowed cigarette is pushed straight through it. When the cigarette is removed, the card is shown to be undamaged. When I perform this trick, I like to give the signed card back to the spectator as a memento of the trick.

Colour Monte (Bicycle Cards) - £5.50
Skill Rating: Difficult

Using this trick in my shows I believe that this is one of the best Monte Card routines available.

Compacted - £18.99

A freely chosen card is signed by a spectator and returned back to the deck. Then the magician shows a black bag which is handed to the spectator to hold. The chosen card vanishes from the deck.

Crossing Over - £15.99
Skill Rating: Easy
A deck of cards is shuffled, cut and mixed. You explain to your audience the reasons why they should never play cards with a magician. Offer to show them an example. Openly deal a face-up poker hand to one spectator and yourself. As they look over all of the cards, they see each card is obviously different. Collect the piles and give your spectator their pile to keep in a safe place. As you spread your pile of five cards, ask them to mentally select any one card and to burn that card into their memory. Once done, close up the spread. Have them reveal their thought-of-card for the first time. Slowly and deliberately you deal down your pile of cards one at a time. There are only four cards! Their selected card has vanished from your pile! Now ask them to retrieve their pile of cards. You'll notice how the expression on their face turns to one of disbelief as they begin to realize what might happen next! You deal their pile one at a time onto the table. Their pile of cards now has six cards. Yes, the selected card now resides in their pile!

Entourage - £21.99
Skill Rating: Easy
After a decade in development, Gordon Bean is finally ready for the general release of Entourage. For the past year, visitors--and some notable performers--at the Magic Castle in Los Angeles have served as test audiences, and all have reacted with the sort of enthusiasm reserved for only the very strongest walk-around items. The effect couldn't be any more straightforward. With a legitimately free choice, a spectator names any one of the four queens. Then--also with a legitimately free choice--the spectator picks any one of four cards trapped between two face-up jokers. It's the named queen! Read that again. There is no restriction whatsoever on either the choice of the queen or the face-down card. The effect will work with any queen and any face-down card--and you can repeat it for the same audience with a different choice every time. The effect doesn't stop with the revelation of the selection, however. As a devastating kicker, the three cards not selected are turned over--if desired, by the spectator himself--and they're all jokers! The named queen is the only one present! After being field-tested at the Magic Castle for months, Entourage is a real rarity: an effect that is entirely practical and ready to go into the front rank of your repertoire. It's easy to do, and once you're done, it resets instantly, in full view of your audience. And since no table is required, the entire routine can be performed surrounded, with the finale occurring right on the spectator's hand.

ESP Cards (Bicycle Cards)

ESP Deck:



ESPecially Wild (Bicycle Cards) - £21.00
Skill Rating: Easy
Destined to become a part of your act. This two phase routine has to be seen to be appreciated. It leaves a powerful impact on your audience. Two sets of coloured ESP symbols are shown. You select an ESP symbol from your set and the spectator selects one from his set (Free Choice). They of course match. Stop right now and you have a miracle. But, this routine has a kicker. Using the freely selected symbol you magically transform all the other symbols into the selected one. Strong visual magic. The innovations made in this routine make it twice as powerful as the classic Wild Card. ESPecially Wild gets away from all alike cards, which cause suspicion. ESPecially Wild gives you two effects for the price of one. There are no difficult sleights and you should be able to perform it after ten minutes of practice. Comes complete with ten specially printed poker-size Bicycle cards and photo-illustrated instructions. This new printing has all the cards changing into green stars.

Floating Match Stick - £4.99
Skill Rating: Easy
A playing card is shown and a (borrowed) matchstick is placed on the back of the card. Then amazingly the match begins to float in thin air as the card is bent slightly. Another playing card can be placed in-between the match and the bent card to further prove that the card is levitating. This is truly an amazing trick to perform and is very easy to do. You receive two 'floating' cards and one normal card.

Fluffy the Magic Rabbit - £19.99
Skill Rating: Intermediate
This is a very entertaining trick for kids of all ages. Four large cards are shown, one of Fluffy, one of a bunch of carrots and two of top hats. The bunch of carrots card is placed face down on the table. Fluffy the rabbit is turned face down and the spectator is challenged to find Fluffy! This is easy as he’s the only face down card. But when the face down card is turned over, Fluffy has vanished.  He reappears from the magician’s pocket. “Would you like to see him vanish again?” The cards are now clearly shown in the magician’s hand, Fluffy and three top hats. The magician counts out the four cards, which have all turned to be the top hats Fluffy has vanished again! As a delightful conclusion to the trick, Fluffy is found to be eating the carrots on the carrot card, which was placed on the table earlier. Made of attractive plastic cards.

The initialled card, with its blank crystal ball, is removed from the stack and the spectator is told to hold it face down.

Other presentations of the trick will provide surprising messages in the crystal ball, including the name of a selected card.

Foxy Queen - £1.99

A nice little gimmick. You display a printed card showing 5 cards on it, calling attention to the queen in the centre. The card is turned over so that the backs are now facing the spectator.

Impossible Card In Bottle (by Kirchner) - £39.99
Skill Rating: Intermediate
"I love this idea. It eliminates all flaws often encountered when signed cards are found inside sealed bottles. What's even more amazing is that the whole thing is practically self-working!" -Peter Duffie
"Waiter, there's a card in my drink!" -Bob Farmer
A signed card instantly appears inside a sealed bottle! That's how the routine plays. No fumbling extra steps or misused moments. This is as clean as they come! Cleaner! It absolutely sparkles! A reputation maker, instant classic, any venue any time, etc. The instruction book is all-inclusive. Every nuance and subtlety is described in vivid detail. Even the newest magician will understand each step. Alternative tricks, using the same gimmicks, are also taught. This is a serious box of magic. That's right, BOX of magic! The shoebox size packaging barely holds all the materials. However, once you decide which effects you want to perform, the gimmicks can fit in a watch pocket! This is the stuff miracles are made of, a clever concept and flawless execution.

Infra-Red Box (by Werry) - £15.00
Skill Rating: Easy
Let a spectator choose a playing card (or ESP card) let's say the Eight of Hearts. The card is placed face up on the table. Show a small white disc on both sides to be blank (and it is!). You sign it on one side and the spectator signs it on the reverse side. The disc is then placed into the transparent Infra-Red Box. Because the box is transparent, both signatures can be seen on the disc. The spectator places the box onto the chosen card and makes a magical gesture. He then opens the box and drops out the disc. Strange as it may seem, the name of the playing card is now printed in a different colour underneath the signature on one side of the disc! Everything can be immediately examined!
§There is no switching of the disc or box! ©The disc is clearly seen white on both sides with only the signatures on it! ¨No writing gimmick is used! ªCan be repeated with a different card! ©You can make your own prediction with any symbol or card value you want! §No chemical inks used.

Impromptu Raising Card - £4.99
Skill Rating: Intermediate
This raising card from deck is almost impromptu, which can be performed with a borrowed deck. A spectator is asked to remove a card from the deck. The card is then replaced into the deck. The magician asks the spectator to concentrate on their card. As this is done one card slowly rises from the deck, this is the selected card. A very effective routine.

Interference (Bicycle Cards) - £10.00
Skill Rating: Easy
The performer shows two playing cards, which can be examined. One, which folds lengthways, the other, folds width ways. After the cards are folded it is seen that each of the cards has a small hole going right through them. The long folded card in placed inside the width ways folded card and the holes are aligned. A cigarette or a pencil is inserted into the hole thus securing the cards together. Suddenly the long card is pulled back and forth giving the illusion of penetrating the cigarette! The cigarette is now removed and the cards are shown to be intact.

Invisible Deck (Bicycle Cards) - £9.99
Skill Rating: Easy
The performer removes a pretend 'invisible' deck of cards from his pocket and hands them to a spectator for shuffling and cutting. Lots of scope for comedy here! An invisible card is chosen, reversed and replaced in the invisible deck. The deck now becomes visible and for the first time the spectator names his freely chosen card. The performer spreads the deck, revealing a single facedown card. It is of course, the chosen card! No force, no slights. A feature item for cabaret or close-up shows.




Joker Joker (by Gordon Bean) - £10.00
Skill Rating: Easy
Good opening effects are hard to find-even more so when they're self-working and leave an examinable deck. The devious method behind Gordon's Joker Joker will bring a smile to your lips, and its direct, inexplicable effect will produce gasps from your audience. You start by saying you must first remove the Jokers from the deck. After taking out the first one, you decide to let a spectator find the other, with the cards face down. Despite having multiple chances to stop or move on, and without a single false move on your part, the spectator stops on a card. It's turned over, and it's the second Joker! No other Jokers are in the deck and the pack may be examined! Also Includes: The Los Angeles Open - Perhaps the most baffling version of the Open Prediction ever released. After a card has been announced as a prediction, and with the deck in her own hands, a spectator deals cards face up until she wishes to stop. At this point, she deals a card face down, and deals the rest of the cards face up. The openly predicted card doesn't show up, and the spectator herself spreads the deck to see the only card she left face down was the performer's prediction! Comes complete with 8-page, fully photo-illustrated instructions.

Just Name It (by Jay Sankey) - £21.00
You begin by turning the top card of the deck face up. You proceed to write a prediction across the face of that card. You then spread the cards face up between your hands and ask the spectator to name any one of the cards they see. They may choose any card; they can even change their mind. No matter what card is named, the deck is turned over to reveal your prediction is 100% correct! A remarkable demonstration of clairvoyance under the fairest of conditions!
§
There is NO force, the card will be different each time you perform the effect! ©There is nothing to replace and you can reset in less than a second ªComplete with custom printed cards on Bicycle card stock and two handlings.

Knaves Gone Wild (With DVD) - £15.00
Visual magic at its best! David Solomon’s Knaves Gone Wild starts off like many other assembly tricks. That’s where the similarities end. Each Jack vanishes from its respective packet in a visual, impossible way. Spectators will rub their eyes, grasping for a solution and questioning what they’ve seen. Each vanish is different, surprising and easy-to-do. The trick’s plot is easy to follow, and in the end, the missing knaves arrive in the leader packet, safe and sound.
On this DVD, you will learn David Solomon’s personal handling of Knaves Gone Wild, as well as his cleverly-constructed O’Henry Jazz Aces, an assembly with an unexpected sucker-punch ending which can be performed with a borrowed deck.
-A Visual Tour-de-Force!
-Minimal Sleights Required!
-Includes Specially Printed Bicycle Cards!
-Bonus Trick Included!

Little Bunny’s Card Trick - £14.99
Skill Rating: Easy Recommended
This is a great trick which I highly recommend! A small number of cards are dealt to the spectator from the deck, and some dealt for the magician. Together they shuffle, swap and mix up their cards, so that they have jumbled packs of face-up and facedown cards. The packs are put together and spread on the table; the magician then shows a small book titled “Little Bunny’s Card Trick” which is read out by the spectator.  Little Bunny knows exactly how many cards are face down in the packet! And he knows how many of them are black, too! He even knows the identity of one of the cards! There is no sleight of hand involved. The spectator handles the cards, reads the story and amazes everyone in the room without prompting or management from the magician.

Matching Couples - by Henry Evans - £30.00
Skill Rating: Easy
Matching Couples by Henry Evans A deck of cards is shown to be in no special order. The magician takes all the picture cards from it in a separate stack and starts showing them two by two. They never match, neither in value nor in color. When the magician wants, they all appear to be in matching couples (e.g. Jack of hearts and Jack of diamonds). The rest of the deck can be shuffled by a spectator and the same thing will happen with every single couple (e.g. 10 of clubs and ten of spades, etc, etc).




Matrix Poker - £19.99
Skill Rating: Easy
Matrix Poker is a strange game. The rules are very simple. So simple, that they're printed on a coin purse, which the magician displays. Along with the purse, the magician lays out 16 cards on the table. Each card has a monetary value printed on it. A spectator - completely freely, without any undue influence from the magician - selects four of the number cards. The values on the cards are added, to arrive at a value. Surprisingly, despite the completely free selection, the magician has predicted the total exactly! The very same amount the spectator selected is found inside the coin purse. But, there's more. When the number cards are flipped over, four playing cards are on the reverse. The magician predicted these cards, too! Their values were permanently printed on the coin purse all along! The trick requires no sleight of hand. It works every time, all the time. Matrix Poker comes complete with specially printed cards (from the US Playing Card Company), custom-manufactured coin purse, illustrated, detailed instructions and specially printed bills, (but you can use real money!).

Melt - £4.99
Skill Rating: Easy Recommended
Open the wallet to show two cards inside. Point to the picture card and ask your spectator to name it, as you remove the card and place it face-up in your spectator's palm, your spectator will announce that the card is the King of Hearts. Point to the other card in the wallet asking the spectator again what is the card? They announce that this card is the Nine of Clubs, and you place this card face-down on top of the card already in their palm. You then show that the wallet is clearly empty since the spectator is holding both cards. The spectator covers the two cards with their other hand and is told to imagine that the Nine of Clubs is sinking to the bottom. The top card is turned over to reveal it has turned blank. The King of Hearts is turned over to show that the Nine of Clubs has actually melted onto the back.

Mental Photography (Bicycle Cards) - £9.99
Mental Photography (Budget Deck) - £1.99

Skill Rating: Intermediate
Introducing a deck of cards, you fan the deck, showing that they are blank on both sides. First, a face of a card is made to appear, then another. But their backs are still blank. Then the backs are magically printed until finally you have a complete deck printed with faces and backs. The spectator then chooses a card, which is displayed half way out of the deck. When the cards are then spread in the magician's hands, all the cards have turned back to blank cards on both sides except the spectator’s chosen card!! The trick goes even further as the spectator's card is removed from the middle of the deck and placed on top. When turned face up again, the card has also become blank.
Mental Photography Style:

Mirage Cards (Bicycle Cards) - £9.99
Skill Rating: Easy
There can be no better “forcing deck” than this. For instance where is there a deck of cards, all different, one that you can hand to your spectators, fan, spring, shuffle and yet force a card every time with unerring accuracy? This deck is a combination of both a Svengali and a rough & smooth deck.

Mirror Image (Bicycle Cards) - £4.99
Mirror Image (Budget Deck) - £2.99

Skill Rating: Easy
A self-working do-as-I-do card trick. Twelve cards are shown, six given to the spectator and six kept by the magician. While the cards are behind their backs they each select one card, and swap that chosen card with each other, replacing it back in their deck face up. When the decks are brought forward from behind their backs, it is seen that the same card is face up in both decks, and upon examination the other cards are all different cards.

Misprinted Thought - £13.99
Ultra-direct mind reading. So clean, spectators will swear you're able to reach into their heads and discern their innermost thoughts! The magician asks a spectator to think of any of the 52 cards. There is no force of ANY kind. The choice is completely free. Next, the magician shows four cards to the spectator. Each card is a factory misprint of sorts, with random numbers on their backs and random pips on their faces. Without any pumping or fishing, the magician asks the spectator to look at the face of each card, and then the back of each one. Instantly, the magician knows the name of the spectator's thought-of card! There is no pumping or fishing and no guesswork involved. The magician knows - with complete certainty - which card the spectator merely thought of! Michael Boden's Misprinted thought comes complete and ready to work. It's so easy to do, even YOU might believe in mind reading once you've tried it. Made in the USA by FUN Incorporated.

The spectator's selection is then returned to the pack. The magician sets the deck down and displays two cards from a different deck, which are freely shown then placed on top of the deck face-up. He snaps his fingers and with absolutely no moves or funny business whatsoever, spreads the face-up cards. Sandwiched in between is one facedown card! When the spread is turned over, the sandwiched card is seen to be the spectator's signed selection! §Resets easily Straightforward, visual effect ªEnds with an un-gimmicked deck ready for your next trick

Phil Plus - £17.99
Skill Rating: Easy
The spectator is asked to think of a card and the magician will name it, after a moment's thought he comically announces, "The name of your card is Lucy!" "Well I did say I'd name it, but seriously, what did you actually think of?" The seven of clubs (for instance) answers the spectator. Immediately the magician says "That's right. Lucy is the seven of clubs!" The cards are removed from the box and shown to have a variety of girls names printed on the back of each card. i.e. Emma, Kate, Lisa. The spectator's chosen card (seven of clubs) is removed from the deck and the name on the back of the card is Lucy. The magician then reverses the roles, the magician thinks of a card and writes it down, while the spectator thinks of a girl's name. The magician fans through the deck to find the card with spectator's chosen name on the back, the card is shown to be the four of hearts. When the magician's prediction is shown, it is indeed the four of hearts! Self working, not a Svengali Deck.

You walk up to a group of people with a deck of cards. You're about to perform an effect that they'll think about for days and remember forever. You ask one of your spectators to remove a card from the deck and conceal it. A lighter is ignited as you thrust your thumb and forefinger into the fire. Your face twists and contorts as you wince in pain. The tension is almost unbearable as you slowly withdraw your fingertips from the flame. You turn your hand toward the onlookers. Your skin is reddish and blistered. You've got two distinct blisters. But this isn't just a stunt... it's magic. Your skin has blistered in the shape of your spectator's chosen card!


Psychic Mystery Watch - £39.99
Skill Rating: Easy
Mike Bornstein's original Psychic Mystery Watch stops the show with an unbelievable card revelation. The perfect card revelation for mentalists and magicians. Have a spectator select a card, then concentrate on the image of it in his mind. Pull back your sleeve to show a beautiful slim goldtone Movado style wristwatch with a black face. Take the watch off your wrist and give it to another spectator to hold. The spectator is told to stare into the watch's face, pretending it is a crystal ball, and see if she can visualize the name of the thought of card.

Unknown to everyone else in the audience, the watch mysteriously causes a miniature playing card to materialize behind the crystal. It is the selected card. As the spectator announces the name of the card, the image slowly vanishes from the face of the watch.
An impossible effect where one spectator apparently reads the mind of another. The Psychic Mystery Watch is so unexpected, so impossible seeming, that the spectator will just remember thinking of a card and then being told what he is thinking.

Mike Bornstein's Psychic Mystery Watch includes the specially manufactured goldtone Movado style wristwatch with black band. Unlike previous releases of the routine this watch has a genuine Quartz movement, which allows for more deceptive routines.

Sexy Puzzle - £1.99
Skill Rating: Easy
This is a clever self-working trick for the adults! A large playing card is shown, but cut up into four pieces. With only the back of the card showing, a spectator is challenged to assemble a complete card, which the spectator does easily. Then the magician mixes all the pieces and turns them over to reveal the front of the card, which happens to be a picture of a naked lady. The spectator is again challenged to complete the puzzle, but this time there is a large gap in the middle of the puzzle, so that the most ‘important' feature of the lady is missing!! Nothing has been removed! A really nice trick which always leaves the spectators amazed and puzzled.
