Maxello Magic

A new approach to the T&R plot

A corner is cleanly and fairly torn from a selected card. (It really is!) The magician claims that he can restore this card to its former glory with the aid of a very special and ancient and magic-endowed instrument of necromancy. The spectators clutch their handbags to their faces and peek through the gaps in their fingers. The magician goes to his pocket and produces....a stapler! He talks half the audience out of leaving before re-attaching the torn corner with the stapler. The "restored" card is signed by the spectator as proof that this miracles was witnessed by human eyes. A man in the back row cocks the hammer on a large handgun, a woman in the front is picturing the magi with an axe in his liver....before things turn violent he gathers everyone around close and with a gentle rub (ooh!) he visually heals the torn corner and hands out the card ford inspection, there is nothing to find, just the two staples which once held the card together!

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.

As many of you know, Kenton is more than a magician or a mentalist... He is a Wizard. And to him, that means that sometimes the lines get blurred between the two.

Often times a spectator wants you to tell them the future. A Cut Above is perfect for the impromptu reading by a magician, or as an opener for a more in depth session.

A blank card is shown to be the spectators future. Somewhere along the path, they choose to make a change. You cut the card in two pieces - where they want you to - and then you show that there were many choices printed on the back. Their choice proves to be a positive and moving experience every time.

A Cut Above comes with three different versions of cards so that you can repeat the effect and with plenty of each to perform dozens and dozens of times.

Make impossible card predictions with Devin Knight's Excalibur Deck! Mail a VIP a registered letter and never touch it again. Have him bring it to the show. Show a deck of cards to be different and hand them to any spectator (no stooge) and have them deal the cards face down on the table, while holding the deck in their hands. They stop anywhere during the deal and set the card aside. Magician tells them to check the cards before and after in the deck. This allows the person see if they had stopped one sooner or later the selection would have been completely different. The selected card is turned over, and the VIP opens the envelope and inside is the MATCHING CARD!

Other ways to do this effect include:

Have an envelope you never touch hanging from the ceiling. Anybody opens it, and inside is a duplicate of the same card just selected moments ago.

The freely stopped at card can be predicted in the classified ads in your local paper.

Important points to remember:

• This can be hands-off for the magician. The cards are shown to be different. The spectators deal and stop anywhere, they can change their mind and keep dealing. Cards in the deck before and after can be shown to be different cards.
• No Switches
• No Skill or Sleights
• No Rough and Smooth
• No Stuck Together Cards
• No Mark Cards
• No Long or Short Cards

Magician need never touch the deck once handed to the spectator. Spectator turns over the selected card. No need for you ever to touch it. You never touch the envelope containing the prediction. It is opened by the VIP and the card is removed by them.

As clean as it gets. Deck can be used in other card prediction effects. Works perfectly with the IN THE NEWS effect. Supplied in Bicycle Poker card stock. A true reputation maker than will fool the wise ones.
