Maxello Magic

Upon meeting a spectator, the performer asks the spectator to write their name on a file card. The file card is burned with a lighter and allowed to burn to ashes in an ashtray. The performer gathers a handful of these ashes and rubs them into his forearm. As the ashes spread over the performer's arm, the name of the spectator is revealed!

Ash Pen for a New Generation!

This special pen will allow you to perform the "ashes on arm" effect not only with great ease, but almost impromptu. In addition, it will open the doors to a wider range of presentational approaches.

This method is more simple and practical than any other method previously devised. The special pen will produce sharper and clearer messages on your arm or the back of your hand. In addition, you will now be able to make a message appear on a spectator's arm, without the aid of a stooge.

Ash Pen Pro Features:

• The message can be any size. You can draw the suit and value of a playing card, a figure, a first name, a geometrical shape, a picture, etc.
• The preparation will remain invisible at all times.
• Preparation only takes a few seconds. In certain situations, you can even prepare your arm during the effect itself, as soon as you acquire the information.
• You can write your message on a large variety of surfaces such as, but not limited to: skin, paper, playing cards, and restaurant menus. You are only limited by your imagination!

Presentational suggestions and various applications include:

1. Basic Routine
2. Making a message appear on a spectator's arm
3. Presentation for Restaurant Magic
4. Revealing a message on the back of a playing card
5. Prediction in a bag of tea... or coffee
6. Halloween-Bizarre Magick type of presentation

Comes complete with gimmick pen and an 8 page photo-illustrated booklet.

Great new style! This set can be shown on both sides! yes that's right you can show both sides of the coins as you make them appear! Get them before they disappear.

Part 1: The magician shows two chinese coins (regular size) and says that in China "less is more". He puts one of the coins in his pocket, clearly leaving only one coin in his hand; but when he asks how many coins are left and spectators answer "one", he opens it and there are three coins! He repeats the action, putting one of the three coins in the pocket, leaving two in his hands but when spectators say "two" he can show there are now four coins! Very visual effect. In the end the four coins can be examined.

Part 2: The magician shows two jokers, both sides, and his hands completely empty. The two cards are put together face to face and a jumbo chinese coin appears from in between them. This is repeated three times causing three more jumbo coins to appear from nowhere, always showing the cards both sides and the hands empty. All four coins can be shown both sides. The clear conditions in which this effect takes place makes it a miracle.

The magician has a spectator select a card from the deck. Without letting the magician see, the spectator can look at and show the selection to the audience.

Then the card is placed into the center of the deck and the spectator shuffles it. The magician then claims that with in 2 attempts, he can find the selected card, in fact, the magician is so confident that he bets $5 if the card is not found. Placing his wager of a $5 bill under his shoe, where it is safe and visible, the magician fans the deck and takes his first attempt to find the card. The revealed card is not the spectator's selection! One more incorrect guess and the spectator wins the bet! The magician using his last and final attempt pulls from the deck...a folded $5 bill! Since the magician's wager ended up where the selected card was in the deck, then the selected card should be where the bill was. Sure enough, there is now a face down card under the magician's shoe, picking it up and turning it over reveals the spectator's selected card and the magician wins the bet! Includes a US bill based gimmick and video instructions on a Video CD (VCD). NOTE: VCD may not play in some home DVD players.
