Maxello Magic

A card is selected (say 5D) from a regular red deck, it is signed and placed into the center of the deck. They actually see the 5D going into the deck, no control etc.

You remove a blue backed card from your pocket it has a large shark stuck on it. You claim that this is your card shark and he will find their selected card.

The shark instantly vanishes from the blue card, the deck is spread and right in the middle there is one BLUE backed card with a shark on it, this really is their card no switch etc. Now for the killer ending, they slide out the signed card it has a LARGE BITE OUT OF ONE CORNERS!

• Resets in 2 seconds, a Different Card Each Time!
• Very Easy to Do!
• Complete with Two Gimmicks and 24 FULL Color Shark Sticker!

The performer explains that the ring is made of a special material capable of neutralizing gravity inside the ring, so that any object in the center of the ring will float freely in the air. He then takes the ring back to the table, slowly lowering it along with the object and putting both on the table. The spectators may inspect all the objects.

But that is not all. The magician can immediately repeat the effect with any object at all that does not weigh more than 2 lbs, 1kg. He does not have to pick up or palm anything, he does not have to touch his body (no, there are no strings stretched across the room either!) or make any new preparations! A member of the audience simply puts any object on the table (a handkerchief, a banknote, a lighter, a pack of cigarettes, a candlestick with a burning candle, a burning petroleum lamp, anything). The magician takes the ring, moves it over the chosen object - and, just like before, it floats in the middle of the ring!

Catalogue talk! you might say, That is just impossible! On the contrary, we say, Of course it is possible. Astor performed this effect any number of times and totally amazed his audiences with it. And you might be even more amazed when we tell you:

• The magicians hands are always empty!
• He does not pick up any aids, so he does not have to secretly put any away!
• He can float any object as often as he likes (and, of course, not only things borrowed from the audience, but also anything of his own, such as a large ball, a glass, a bottle with liquid - in other words, anything that isn't very heavy).
• The ring and the objects are completely unprepared, and can be examined at any time!
• No wires, ring pullers, magnets or that sort of thing!
• This effect can be performed before surrounding audiences, at a distance of 7 feet / 2m.
• No training required!

Can you imagine a better effect? We can't! You can use any larger ring for this effect and it can be of metal, wood, plastic or just about anything. Of course an aid is actually used; you can easily make it yourself. The richly illustrated instructions explain everything clearly, so that even a beginner can perform this amazing trick.

The trick can be immediately repeated with any object of no more than approx. 2 lbs, 1kg in weight.

This trick contains no gimmick!

"Rodger Lovins has done it once again! He has created a piece of magic that is a real stunner! When Rodger sent me a copy of his new idea, I knew right away that 'PLAY TIME' would be another success in a long line of ideas coming from this magical genius." - John Rogers

"It fits in my wallet and is with me at all times. I really like the way Rodger thinks! Play Time is a keeper." - Stephen Bargatze

"Thanks Rodger, your 'Play-Time' is my new favorite trick to carry in my pocket." - Mac King

The Magician has two cards selected from a deck of cards. He tells the spectators that a lot of people ask him, "How long have you been doing magic?"

The magician then shows the spectators an old black and white photo of himself as a child. The small child, age one, is holding a playing card. The magician tells the spectators that "A picture is worth a thousand words."

He tells the first spectator that on the reverse side of this picture is another photo of me holding a face up card. The magician asks the first spectator to reveal their selection. The photo is turned over and the child star is holding a playing card. It's a Match!

The magician turns the photo face down on the table and asks 2nd spectator to reveal his selection. The magician then asks the 2nd spectator to turn the photo over. The photo has changed to match the other selected card!

• Only one photo is used.
• It never leaves their sight!
• Easy to do.

Rodger Lovins has been creating magic for over 30 years and this may well be his ultimate creation. Don't pass this one up!

Comes complete with wallet-size double sided photo, gimmick, plastic business card holder and 12 page booklet with other routines, tips and methods.

A spectator is asked to visualize a card, it can be any card, a clear picture must be formed in your mind. Now think of a color, either red or blue.

The magician explains to the spectator how powerful words and the imagination can be when combined. An incantation or magic spell is based on this very principle. If you clearly visualize your card and the colors of the cards back, we may have a miracle on our hands. The card they thought of is the only card reversed in the pack!

The kicker ending: You show the entire deck to be a different color then the selection! Chimera will allow you to demonstrate what happens when the power of words are combined with the power of imagination! Unlike a brainwave deck or invisible deck, you clearly show both the faces and backs of the entire deck, the selection is not only the opposite color, it is the only card reversed in the pack.

Powerful high impact magic that is completely self working and easy to do. We guarantee Chimera will be one of your favorites, it comes with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
