Maxello Magic

The magician makes an object disappear and reappear into an exquisite brass casket. The casket can be examined by anyone, it is absolutely inaccessible! It is made of solid brass. No shortcuts have been taken in the crafting of this beautiful effect. Magician borrows a ring from a spectator. He puts it securely in a handkerchief, handing it to the spectator. An attractive brass box is displayed and set on the table in full view by all. When the handkerchief is opened the ring has vanished. The spectator is instructed to open the brass container. It will take him 30 seconds to unscrew the lid ! The ring is revealed inside the box. Of course the Ring Casket is gimmicked, but completely examinable. So clever you'll be amazed! This model is different than other versions. The magician can load the ring in a split second, with no fumbling.

A pack of cards is covered with a handkerchief. A spectator is invited to take hold of the cards through the cloth and cut the deck in half (and it is a completely fair cut!)

The spectator takes a quick peek at whichever card she cut to and is given the deck, still wrapped in the handkerchief. The magician urges the spectator to imagine that, "the ink on every card but yours is slowly fading away." And sure enough, when the spectator unfolds the handkerchief and spreads through the deck, she discovers that every card except the one she selected is now blank on both sides!

Yes, the deck can be thoroughly examined!

This killer effect features a little-known-but-absolutely-baffling force that makes the trick totally self-working.

Comes complete with the necessary deck of cards, all the details on the ingenious handling and Jay's professional script. Fade Away also includes as a special bonus, Jay's full-length routines Bloodsucker and Blind Aces-free!

Mike Powers Diminishing Returns is one of the hottest card tricks ever created!

Now, it's back with a vengeance! On Bicycle Stock!

Here's what happens: Show the deck, faces and backs. A spectator names any card in the deck. Yes, any card. Remove the named card and set it aside, face up.

Spread the deck. The entire deck has shrunk to half size! The selected card is now the biggest card in the deck! In a blink, the entire deck grows back to normal size, but the selected card shrinks to mini size! This looks wild! Finally, the selected card visibly grows back to normal size! Wow!

Diminishing Returns comes complete with a fully gaffed Bicycle deck (56 gaffed cards) and a typeset and illustrated manuscript. And, it's easy to do!! If you can spread the deck on the table, you can do this routine!

Plus, you get a free bonus, The Defective Deck!

Performer has a spectator FREELY select a card from an ordinary deck of cards. Without looking at it, the performer tables the card face down and brings out a small leather business card wallet from which he removes his business card and a dollar bill. "On the back of my business card is a prediction. If the prediction does not match the card you selected, you win the cash!" The spectator perks up as the performer places the selected card face down inside the wallet, leaving the side of the card protruding from within the compartment.

"Would you be impressed if the same card was written on the business card?" asks the performer. The spectator agrees, and the performer turns over the business card to reveal the words, "THE SAME CARD!" ... "actually," says the performer, "the real prediction is written on the back of the money. Turn it over and see for yourself."

The spectator turns the bill over and the words, "Four of Clubs" is written on the bill. The performer calls attention to the selected card in the business card wallet. Taking it out slowly and dramatically, he turns it over to reveal the Four of Clubs! It's the same card indeed!

This beautiful, ingenious piece of close-up mentalism comes to you with the special leather business card holder and detailed instructions. You'll have so much fun with this, you'll never put it down!
