The Gypsy Deck
Just imagine! A playing card deck that brings the past to life. These vintage-looking playing cards are inspired by the Anglo-American poker decks from the 18th and 19th century. With their extraordinary Tarot size (60 x 110 mm) you and your spectators really get the feeling of seeing something very special and rare.
The cards seem to have seen many years pass by as they look old and worn. But in fact they are absolutely new and printed on the best playing card stock available (3-layer paper, linen structure, high flexibility, the same that you know from your favourite Bicycle deck).
The backs are marked in a very subtle way so that - if you like - you can easily find out which card is selected. Only those in the know will notice the secret. All the above features make this deck perfect for magicians.
Increase the possibilities with this deck by adding the cards of the extension set.

Deck that Shuffles Itself $36
by Dominique Duvivier
EFFECT:
The performer takes a deck out of its case. He spreads it face-up on the table. The deck is now squared and put aside. The performer pretends to shuffle the deck invisibly: he pretends to take the deck (in fact the deck stays on the table and he acts as if he had the deck in his hands), put it on the table in front of him, cut it in half, turn one pile face-up and shuffle both parts with a riffle shuffle, square the deck, take it and put it back where the real deck was.
The deck is spread on the table, and all the cards are mixed, half face-up and half face-down, as if these fictitious actions became real. The deck is put aside. The performer separates the cards in the same way with an invisible deck in his hands and then puts it back. The real cards are spread, and all the cards are face-up again. He squares the deck and puts it face down. He then spread the cards, showing that only the card backs are visible.
The cards are squared and taken with the right hand. The face card is the Queen of Hearts. The performer does a magic move and spreads the cards again, showing that they are now all the Queen of Hearts! Squaring the deck again, the performer does another magic move and spreads the deck to show only ordinary cards. He then spreads the other side to show only the backs of the cards! The performer puts the deck back in it case and closes it. As he puts it away, he changes his mind and hits the short side of the case, showing that the image on the front of the case has become compressed.
Comes complete with gaffed card deck and detailed instructions on how to perform this trick.

Gypsy Monte 2003 $15
![]()
by R. Paul Wilson
From the fertile mind of Scotland's premiere conjuror comes a visually stunning, easy-to-perform gem of commercial card magic. The intriguing story and the unique props provide a strong emotional hook designed to draw audiences in. And the handling is so simple that you can concentrate on what's important - being entertaining. Three tarot cards are introduced, two Fool cards, and a Wheel of Fortune card. The tale tells the effect: "I'd like to tell you the story of a legendary con artist who invented the world's oldest card trick. Today it is called Three Card Monte, but it began as 'The Search for Fortune.' It was invented long ago and used three cards from the tarot. Two Fools...and the Wheel Of Fortune. "The idea was simple: If you find a fool... you lose. Find the fortune and you win! One day an old woman watched the con man play. He mixed the cards and laid them in a row. She placed a small bet on the first card ... and lost (a fool card)! So she bet a little more on the next card... and lost again (another fool card)! Finally, she bet all she had on the last card... and lost (yet another fool card)! That's when she realized she was being cheated. "Invoking her Gypsy heritage, she uttered a strange and powerful curse under her breath and turned away from the cheat. From that moment his fate was sealed. He was forever doomed to lose. Whenever he tried to work his con, no matter how he moved or manipulated the cards, if they chose the first card... they would win. If they chose the next card... they would win again. And if they chose the last card... they would take it all. Soon, all he owned were the clothes on his back and these three cards. Remembering the old gypsy, he spent months trying to find her. When he finally did, he begged her to give him his life back. She agreed to play one last time - with his life as the prize.
"Now she mixed the cards and removed one of them... and even showed him the other two before placing them aside (a fool and a fortune card). With but a single choice, he blurted without hesitation, 'It's a fool!'
"With a smile she replied, 'No, you're the fool...' and he dropped DEAD on the spot (a surprise death card!). This is how I learned a valuable lesson - never cheat - because when you make your living like that... the odds are always against you!"
In addition to the main routine, Paul also teaches how to make all three cards turn into death cards for a killer climax! Gypsy Monte 2003 comes complete with six laminated tarot cards and full instructionsPerfect $25

The Mexican Revolution $15
![]()
Whether in his native country or during his many engagements at Caesar's Magical Empire in Las Vegas or at the Magic Castle in Los Angeles, Fenik has long been perplexing some of magic's top names with his Mexican Revolution routine.
The effect is straightforward and eye-poppingly visual: four jacks turn face down one at a time, then turn back face up, and finally have their backs change from blue to red. Its highly ingenious method reduces sleights to an absolute minimum, but it's so much fun to watch you'll want to stay in front of the mirror doing it again and again!
With the U.S. Playing Card Co. having done a brilliant job of producing the necessary cards, The Mexican Revolution was first released by Gordon Bean and Larry Horowitz's company MagicLab at the Magic Castle swap meet in the spring of 2002, and instantly proved to be a big hit. Fenik then came up with a brilliant streamlining of his original handing that, in turn, led Gordon to come up with Jaywalk, which turned the effect of the original inside out. This time, after turning face up then face down, the cards change from jokers to jacks!
Considering that Jaywalk was the quintessential dealer's ad boasting three distinct phases of visual magic, no sleights required, only four cards used, fronts and backs of all cards in view, no glue, no wax, no double cards-the decision was made to put The Mexican Revolution on hold after its one day of release and wait for the necessary new cards to be printed.
So now, for the same price, you get both The Mexican Revolution and Jaywalk plus a whole new world of experimentation. After this revolution, twisting effects will never be the same!
Boomerang $20
Bill Goldman
![]()
The magician writes a prediction on a piece of paper, folds it and gives it to a spectator to hold. He asks her to then name a number less than 52. After she does, he deals the cards one at a time onto the table FACE UP until he reaches the card at the selected number. The spectator opens the paper and reads the prediction -- it is the card at the selected number! There is no pick-a-card aspect to this effect - that is important. It is far more profound. The set-up can be done on the fly! This trick will hit your audience like a freight train, it will be the one that they remember.

COLOR MONTE $7
![]()
From Jim Temple. Three cards are shown. Two have a red spot, one has a blue spot. Performer explains that this is a gambling game. If you can find the blue spot you win a $1.00, if you're wrong, you lose $1.00. Performer is going to show how he got taken. He shows blue card on top. He turns it face down and places it on the bottom. When he shows bottom card, it's a red one. He shows top card, it's red. He shows the middle one, it, too, is red. This means so far that he has lost $3.00 because every time he picks the card he thinks is blue, he gets the red. So performer says that he accused the gambler of not even having a blue one. He shows that bottom card is now a blue one, so he's lost another 41.00. Then he says that if it's on the bottom, it can't be on top. Wrong again, because there it is. Then he shows it also in center. So far, he's lost $6.00. So he says that the thinks gambler is using more than three cards. He counts them on the table showing just three. Now he' s lost $7.00. So performer says that gambler gave him a chance to get even, double or nothing. He shows one card has blue spot, other has red. Tell color of third card and we're even. Performer says he was wrong again and ended up losing $14.00. Performer turns over third card as he says this and it has $14 printed on it.

Tonte Jr. $15
![]()
Three cards are shown: two black tens, and a jack of spades. The spectator is asked to "find the picture card," but that's not possible, for now the performer holds three black tens- the jack is found inside the magician's pocket! The game is repeated with the four-card set. Again, the spectator is unable to find the jack, for the packet now consists of four tens; the jack is again inside the magician's pocket! The performer suggests that a five card game is too difficult, so one card is set aside. The remaining cards are mixed. The spectator is asked to locate the jack, and of course, suspects that the card that was put aside is the face card. In fact, that card turns out to be a ten. The performer finally comments, "Perhaps Monte is not your game..." He turns the cards over to display a Royal Straight Flush in spades! "You should try Poker, instead!"
Effect includes all cards needed and complete, illustrated instructions

The spectators themselves remove these "sandwiched" cards and they are...the two Aces!? The cards in the magician's hand are immediately turned over to reveal the spectator's selections! It's just that clean and visual! The included booklet describes the original version of KickBack along with updated handlings from Chris Korn, Paul Wilson and Ryan Swigert. You'll learn how to perform this magic underground hit with signed selections, using a borrowed deck and even using cards with different colored backs!

Let's see if the system works!"
The top five cards of the shuffled pack are taken and displayed by being inserted into the edge of the book. The spectator is told to choose any of the five cards. The selected card is, for example, the four of clubs. The four unchosen cards are shown to be all different. When the fortune message is removed from the envelope, it reads:
"You have a compassionate nature and strong leadership potential. Your sense of humor is admired by others. Your lucky card is the four of clubs!"

Black Envelope DVD - Kohler $25
What Is Black Envelope?
![]()
Bob Kohler’s Black Envelope is a truly diabolical secret based on an idea from top Scottish card man Peter Duffie, tipped to Bob by Frank Garcia. In typical Kohler fashion, Bob then honed the concept and created five real-world, practical routines which have all held a steady place in his professional repertoire for over ten years. These are no pipe dreams, what you’ll learn are professional routines which “get the money.”What Can You Do With It?
Here is just one of the effects possible: Imagine showing your audience a black, letter-sized envelope, which you place in full view on the table. A card is then selected and signed by a spectator. Instantly, the signed card appears inside of the envelope! And get this-no palming!The Black Envelope DVD includes detailed explanations to this and four more complete routines, each utilizing the ingenious principle in a completely different way. You’ll learn the methods, moves and even presentations to the routines that Bob has used to fool lay audiences and expert magicians alike for years. Each of the routines vary in skill level from easy to medium difficulty-every magician will find something they can put to use immediately.

Side Swiped - Aronson $15
Transform a signed card into an impossible object-that your spectator gets to keep!The Effect: You display both sides of a small printed Instruction Card for "The World's Greatest Card Trick" which you just received in today's mail and offer to try it out with the spectator's help. As you read off each step, the spectator follows the instruction. The instructions guide the spectator to select a playing card from a shuffled deck, sign its face, replace it in the deck and finally wrap the deck up in rubber bands, "magician-proofing" the pack. The spectator's signed selection remains in full view the entire time until it's cleanly buried in the deck. The spectator wraps the deck herself and then drops it into your jacket pocket.
The final instruction is then read, but it simply says "magically produce the card." Undaunted, you make a magical gestured over the Instruction Card-which you've been holding in plain view since the very beginning of the trick and when you turn it around, the other side is shown to have magically changed into the spectator's selected card, complete with their signature!

Sidewalk Shuffle Redone by Martin Lewis $15
Simple, Streamlined and Sassy!A Martin Lewis classic (how many magicians first learned of Martin Lewis, in fact) has been streamlined for an even greater impact, with three phases and an incredible surprise climax.
The magician displays three blank jumbo-sized (4.5" by 7") cards along with an Ace.
One of the blank cards is placed aside and a "three card monte" is performed with the remaining two blank cards and the Ace. The spectators can never find the Ace, but no wonder...the magician reveals that all three of the cards in his hands are blank and it was the Ace that was placed aside! This is repeated once more and on the third time when the spectators are asked to guess where the Ace is they'll of course say that it's on the table...but now the card on the table is shown to be blank, and the three cards in the magician's hands are all shown to be Aces!
Only the same four cards are used throughout-no ditching, etc. Comes complete, with four jumbo Bicycle-backed cards and illustrated 8-page booklet.
