Five red plastic caps are on a table. A spectator is instructed to place a small object under any one of the caps after the performer has left the room. The caps can be mixed, or moved, it's up to the spectator. The performer returns. Instantly, he knows which cap contains the object! In it's barest form; it's only a one in five chance. But as we add the smoke, and presentation, the effect soars!

"This is a real fooler!" - Michael Close

"For me, the Killer Red Caps is a trade show stopper that fools the crowd to the point they come back to witness the routine again and again."- Seth Kramer

Now you can predict a spectator's freely thought of name, number, date, age - even the amount of change in their pocket. The list goes on and on - and your reputation will only grow and grow!

All this is possible with the Super Sharpie. The Super Sharpie is a revolutionary redesign of mentalism's most potent weapon. It's so incredibly simple to use, you'll be performing mind boggling mental miracles just minutes after practicing with it.

The Super Sharpie can be used as a regular Sharpie - because it is! Feel free to hand it to spectators to sign cards - they'll never discover its hidden secret.

There's a built-in precision gimmick that allows you to make sharp, distinct predictions with clarity and legibility. Best of all, you'll do all this right under their noses - while they're staring at you. Since it's all built into the pen, there's no fumbling. You start clean when you pull the pen out, and you end clean when you put the pen away.

It's self-contained, self-inking and undetectable, and it's always ready to go. You'll make your predictions on playing cards (even plastic cards), business cards, and virtually anything else that you can write on with a regular a Sharpie pen.

In the 15 minute companion video CD (included), you'll learn expert technique that will get you up and running with your Super Sharpe immediately. Comes with Super Sharpie, video CD and illustrated instructions.

Have a small boy drink a glass full of water. Now ask him to pump his arms up and down, as you touch the funnel to various parts of his body, and he sprouts a leak wherever you touch him. You call up a spectator on stage and state you are going to have him BRAIN WASHED. Pour soap water into one ear with the help of a MILK JUG through the funnel. Then hold the funnel to the other ear and have the water emerge from the funnel. If the water that emerges is dirtier in color, you can explain that the spectator has a dirty mind!

Draw a cow on a slate. Pretend to milk it into the funnel, and have real milk pour out of the funnel at the bottom. Or you could draw a bottle, and pour out the appropriate drink. If you are not much of an artist, you could even show an ad for a drink in a magazine, and pour out the drink from the picture via the funnel.

These are just a few ideas, from which you can milk out a lot of laughs or mystery. Use your imagination and you will find many other uses for this excellent magical prop.

The Comedy Funnel is of metal (steel, brass or aluminum) and plated for long life and rust free service.

Mention that there's a new counterfeiting ring in the area, and boy are they dumb. They're counterfeiting PENNIES! Ask to borrow a penny and take a close look at it. Yup, it's a counterfeit! How do you know? Hold a magnifying glass over it, and the penny grows to twice it's normal size. See, you say, you can see it's larger than a normal penny. When they don't believe you, remove he magnifying glass and the penny is now permanently the size of a HALF DOLLAR!

Ask them not to stare at the penny too long, 'cause the longer they stare at it, THE BIGGER IT GETS!! The half-dollar size penny instantly and magically morphs into a 3" jumbo penny!

Once again, a normal penny grows to the size of a half dollar then climaxes with the blowing up into a GIANT THREE INCH PENNY! All in your hands!

Dishonest Abe is a Jumbo penny routine that anyone can learn. It's easy to do, spectacular to see, and you'll get more "do that again" than from anything else you perform.

Included are--Gregory's Routine, matched luster set of coins (a regular penny, half dollar size penny, and a 3" jumbo penny), a magnifying glass, and 3-D Illustrations that make learning Dishonest Abe a cinch.
