Tear off a corner of a signed card and restore it instantly. This is a very visual torn and restored card effect. There is no unnecessary folding of the card or other funny business. Ray teaches you in detail how the gimmick has to be constructed. You probably do not have all the materials lying around on your table, but all components are readily available. You will learn five ways to perform this restoration effect. Can be adopted to business cards.
Walk up to someone you've never met and have a card chosen, marked and shuffled into the deck. Next, you draw a series of random marks on the back of any indifferent card. Those marks VISIBLY JUMP from card to card, finally VANISHING COMPLETELY.
The deck is slowly spread to reveal the marks on the back of one card...the spectator's signed selection.
One last incredible kicker: You offer the card to the spectator as a souvenir. In order to personalize it...you shake the card...and get ready for this...THE MARKS ON THE BACK OF THE CARD VISUALLY REFORM INTO THE SPECTATOR'S VERY OWN NAME! Yes, the marks VISUALLY REFORM, with no cover whatsoever, into the name of the spectator that you just met! With NO SWITCH... the card is immediately handed to the spectator to keep. It is completely examinable!
Over 2 hours of no holds barred, DVD training:
This effect is the perfect marriage of the Jardine Ellis Ring, and Ring and String magic! Perform impossible ring and rope penetrations like you've never imagined! This effect includes instructions for the care and handling of your Gemini Ring, plus a simple and a more elaborate routine. The best part however, is that you can also use the vast amount of material already available for the Ellis Ring and Ring & String magic to create even more routines. By combining the Ellis Ring Principle with standard Ring and String moves, you will be able to create an entirely new realm of impossible magic!!
Another incredible creation from the undisputed “King of Bar Magic.” Alex Lourido's CAPtivated is the perfect culmination of what a magic trick should be: It's shocking, it's highly visual, it's simple to perform, it's an instant reset with multiple possibilities and routines, not to mention it comes with a handsome metal carrying case that easily fits into your pocket! Alex unveiled Captivated at this years Blackpool, creating a feeding frenzy and completely selling out in less than two hours!
'We have never had a product sell out so fast at a magic convention as Captivated did at Blackpool 2009! It is so refreshing to see such an original and amazing close up trick with objects that aren't cards or coins for once!” -- Keelan Leyser and Charlotte Marie - Owners of MagicTricks.co.uk
One of the beautiful things about... 
Instant-snow
Turn water into snow instantly with this amazing new product! INSTANT-SNOW is the Greatest thing since Slush Powder. Slush Powder instantly gels water or other liquid. INSTANT-SNOW powder changes a cup of water instantly into snow! The cup boils over with a fine powder of snow. Pour a tiny amount of Inst-snow Powder in the bottom of a cup, add water, INSTANTLY the water appears to freeze solid and grows over the top of the cup like a sno-cone! Throw the flakes into the audience and watch their reaction! The uses and possibilities for this product are endless! Supplied in a jar approximately 2 ounces for dozens and dozens of performances. 
The performer displays an empty bottle of beer along with the cap. Visibly, the cap is then magically "pushed" inside through the mouth of the bottle! The bottle is clearly shown and the spectator's can all see the cap rattling around inside the bottle. Just as amazingly, the cap is then once again removed from the bottle and given out for examination! Once more, the performer pushes the cap into the bottle and everything is handed out for examination-they can't get it out! The bottle with the cap permanently inside may then be kept by a spectator as a souvenir. Comes with the secret gimmick which will work with almost any beer bottle and detailed instructions.
You display two single and separate links of steel chain. One link is closed inside of your fist and the second link is simply "dipped" inside. When it is pulled out, the two links have joined together! A third link is brought forth and it too is instantly linked on to the others!
Your hands are empty and the linked chain is immediately passed out for inspection! The spectator's can tug the night away, the chain will never come apart! Perfect for strolling or restaurant work, easy to do, and has an instant reset...it's like the linking rings for close up guys! It comes with everything you need to perform this beautiful illusion, fully illustrated instructions, plus additional handling ideas.
You are in a coffee shop and have been asked to do some magic, but you don't have "anything" on you. You ask the spectator's to get a random assortment of several objects from around the coffee shop or deli. All the items are placed on the table and one by one are eliminated by the spectator. There is one item left, let's say a Sugar Packet. You then show the innocent looked coffee sleeve to your audience and it has PRINTED ON IT: "The Sugar Packet is left"

A Clear Switch Bag Made With The Close-Up Magician In Mind! A Great Work Horse of Magic That You Can Use for Countless Effects & Routines... Clear Force/Switch Bags have been around for many years. Many well known performers have used them for wonderful effects on stage. The problem with many of the bags is that they look somewhat suspect and are generally too large to be used effectively in close quarters. That is until now....With The Clear Close-Up Switch Bag you can: - Without looking, reveal 3 freely selected coins from among dozens that look that same!
- Predict freely chosen celebrities with 100% accuracy!
- Allow a spectator to predict your position in a unique photographic pose and more!
Small enough to carry with you at all times and powerful enough to pack a knockout magical punch! Includes 2 switch bags and 4 outstanding routines from Jay Sankey.

 SPOOKEY Practicing your sleight of hand is important for the close up worker. There are a lot of sleights and handlings out there and you have to pick a select few that work for you. The best way I found to practice my sleight of hand is in front of a mirror and to practice the trick “Spookey” by Jay Sankey. How does a key trick help you with your sleight of hand? With “Spookey” you have to learn how to manipulate 2 or three keys by passing them from hand to hand. Using one hand. Trading keys for others. With “Spookey” you have to be good to do these sleights. You think the shuttle pass is easy? Wait until you try doing it with “Spookey”. With “Spookey”, you have to be able to one, or two sleights in one hand at the same time while handing or passing a key or set of keys from hand to hand or to the spectator all while doing these sleights. Once you have practiced “Spookey” you will be ready to do any kind of sleight of hand. “Spookey” will give you new insight and ideas on how to handle objects while doing sleights and switches. I practice “Spookey” everyday just to keep up with my sleight of hand techniques. Check out “Spookey” by Jay Sankey today.
