Maxello Magic

The Pyramid, Millenium Forcing Device

"When I was a kid, each night, I had strange dreams where strange numbers appeared floating in front of me", says the magician. "And I don't know why, I wrote them all inside this little game I used to play." The magician brings out a small yellow origami pyramid, and places his fingers around it. He then shows all the inner sides of the pyramid with different numbers on it. "I noticed something strange about these numbers! Look, I'm going to open it two times, and I will ask you to remember just one of the numbers that catches your attention." The performer proceeds, opening the pyramid two times, one in each direction. The spectator concentrates, and without any hesitation, he can tell which number the spectator was thinking about! The effect can then be repeated with another number.

The Right Write by Andy Leviss

Here's just a few of the possible routines. Three people are asked to concentrate on random objects of their own choosing. While your back is turned, they write the objects down and the selections are mixed together. One at a time, without any fishing or hesitation, you reveal each selection. Or how about this? While your back is turned, three people draw little stick figures. The figures are mixed while you explain that people often reveal parts of their personality through the drawings they make. When you turn back you are able to instantly reveal who made which drawing.

There are no marks of any kind. Use any paper, even your business cards. There are no moves, no setup, and no reset. The gimmicked pens look completely normal and the spectators can examine them completely.

Comes complete with the three special Bic pens and instructions for two routines, but the possibilities are limited only by your imagination!

PLUS: for as long as we manufacture the effect, the pens are replaced for FREE if they ever wear out!

The Same Card by Wayne Dobson

"Would you be impressed if the same card was written on the business card?" asks the performer. The spectator agrees, and the performer turns over the business card to reveal the words, "THE SAME CARD!" ... "actually," says the performer, "the real prediction is written on the back of the money. Turn it over and see for yourself."

The spectator turns the bill over and the words, "Four of Clubs" is written on the bill. The performer calls attention to the selected card in the business card wallet. Taking it out slowly and dramatically, he turns it over to reveal the Four of Clubs! It's the same card indeed!

This beautiful, ingenious piece of close-up mentalism comes to you with the special leather business card holder and detailed instructions. You'll have so much fun with this, you'll never put it down!

Time Warp with Wallet by Heinz Minten

A spectator is asked to think of any hour of the day. After they have revealed their choice the performer then takes a small leather wallet from his pocket. A prediction card is removed from the wallet and placed faced down on the table. The wallet is now shown to be empty apart from a few banknotes remaining. Finally the prediction card is turned over to reveal the face of a pocket watch showing the exact time selected by the spectator.

No force or multiple outs used. This effect incorporate the Shogun Wallet principle created by Elbert L. Gardner and is used with kind permission of Steven Brown U.S.A.

Travelling Diamond

The stick is now passed through the magician's hand, and the diamond has jumped to the second last position, the stick being again shown on both sides. Finally with a magic flick the diamond hops to the other end of the stick, on both sides. If you wish you can have the diamond hop back one position at a time to the top as well. The apparatus supplied comprises of a special stick, and complete performing instructions.

Triception, ESP Mental

When the cards are turned over, the spectator has "accurately predicted" the outcome. Everything can be examined!

Triple Impact by Matt Ellison

A spectator cleanly selects 3 cards from a red deck and places them in to 3 separate pockets of his choice. With no fishing or funny moves the magician/mind reading guru reaches into his top pocket and removes a blue backed prediction card, your spectator removes the red back card, which he freely placed in to his top pocket, and they match! (same card, same pocket).

The magician now removes a card from his right hand pocket, the spectator does the same and they match (same card, same pocket, and remember the magician removes his prediction first so it is in full view).

The tension is building as the magician reaches in to his left hand pocket and removes a card, the card is shown, and yes it matches the spectator's card (once again same card, same pocket).

Your audience will truly believe that the future is in your control. This is a self-working masterpiece in mental magic.

• No Sleight Of Hand.
• Easy To Do.
• Only one prediction card is in each pocket. Your pockets may be freely shown empty after each prediction card is removed.
• Nothing added or taken away from the pockets or the deck at any time.
• No Palming.
• No Rough and Smooth.
• The Predictions are in your pocket before you start.
• Easily reset and extremely practical.

This is one effect that you will be asked to perform time and time again! In the midst of the many card tricks available today, Triple Impact is something you will USE for many years to come!

Five Powerhouse Routines!

The Universal Word - Imagine chatting up someone just before showtime, inviting her to think of a single word which she will reveal to you later, during your performance. She writes nothing down and tells no one. She has the option of changing her word any time and, until she reveals her choice to one and all, she is the only person in the entire universe who knows the word in her mind.

Later, after asking her to join him, the performer gazes into her eyes and writes something on a scrap of paper which is quarter-folded and openly tucked into a small pocket in his wallet. To ensure accuracy, the participant holds the wallet so everyone can easily see the folded paper. After she reads aloud her word's dictionary definition, she removes the folded paper from the wallet. When she opens it and reads aloud what you wrote, your prediction is the exact same definition and word as hers!

7 pages of detailed instructions give you 4 more real-world routines:

Dual Destiny - A random participant's Zodiac sign and lucky card both match yours, and you prove it!

Burn-Baby-Burn! - She incinerates 51 cards in an imaginary bonfire - your wallet holds the 52nd!

Flipping Impossible - Using imaginary coins, a 5-person 'flip-off' is accurately predicted!

Double Digit Quickie - The audience calls out a random 2-digit number - it's in your wallet, of course.

Each powerful presentation is audience-tested, direct from Larry Becker's personal repertoire.

Weather Or Not by Devin Knight

Mentalist states that the two most talked about things among strangers are the weather and sports. They go hand in hand as the weather often affects sports. You then show a CD prediction and place it in a player. You state this contains a prediction that will hopefully match a weather forecast the spectators will form at random.

You ask the first person to name one of his favorite sports. Let's say he says: BASEBALL. This is written on a board so the audience can see it. You then call attention to 3 closed paper bags on the table. You tell the second person each bag contains a different type of weather gear and you'd like him to choose one to hold. Hopefully he will choose the right gear for the pending weather forecast. All this is done before the random weather forecast is made.

The mentalist then introduces cards containing various weather elements (including comedy weather, such as raining cats & dogs), temps, wind speeds, etc. The spectators then select elements to form a random weather forecast.

Let's say they select Rain, Lightning, Hail, and 25MPH winds. Each of these are written on the board for the audience to see. The performer then tells one of the spectators to push the play button. The CD plays and an official sounding NWS Weather Alert is heard. The voice warns of a pending rain storm, with lightning and 25MPH winds. The exact forecast the spectators formed at random. But wait, there is a REAL KICKER coming up. The weather alert also warns that this storm could cause BASEBALL size Hail! Yes, hail the size of the sports ball the person freely named when he came on stage. This kicker ending will floor any audience. But the best is yet to come. The mentalist points out that one of the spectators choose a bag BEFORE the forecast was formed.

The other two bags are opened first. One is seen to contain gloves and a ski mask. That doesn't fit the forecast. The other bag is shown to have suntan lotion and sunglasses. That doesn't match the forecast either. Finally the person holding the bag opens it. Inside he finds a heavy duty raincoat suitable for rain and hail storms.

• Any 3 People, No Stooges.
• No Pre-show Work.
• One of the people freely calls out a sport.
• No chance of failure.
• No Switch of CDs.
• No Sleights.

Comes complete with a professional produced CD, weather cards, bags to hold them, paper bags, raincoat and Devin Knight's professional comedy routine. The fact that the named sport also predicts the size of the hail is an unusual twist that your audience will never forget.

X-Posed by Wayne Dobson

The performer has a spectator select and replace a card in the deck. After the card has been replaced, the performer displays a picture of a risqu flasher inside a leather window wallet. The picture is now removed from the wallet and held so that the spectator can see that there is a message written on the back. It reads as follows:

• Let your mind go blank...
• Concentrate hard...
• As quick as a flash...
• I'll reveal your card...

After reading it out loud, the performer places the picture card back into the wallet before finally turning it over to show that the flasher has opened his raincoat to reveal the chosen card. It always gets a big laugh and looks magical as well.

XPert by Neil Tobin

Discover a new utility device, one that's already being used by performing mentalists and magicians who appreciate its understated power and seemingly limitless possibilities. Utilizing the subtle principle illuminated in Kenton Knepper's manuscript, X, and launching it into the next dimension, the Xpert makes possible a wide variety of miraculously direct and virtually sleight-free effects, including:

• Out of Body Xpert
  A borrowed coin is chosen from a handful of change, marked with a participant's initial, has its date noted, and is tightly held in anybody's hands- yet the performer invisibly extracts the coin; it is soon found in the pocket of another participant some distance away!
• Xpert Epic
  The performer clearly and boldly numbers the blank sides of three postcards one through three. Picking up each numbered postcard in proper sequence, the performer shows the number on top and then writes his thoughts beneath. At the conclusion, all three postcards are shown to have correct predictions and may be given away afterward. No forces necessary.
• Xpert X-ed Card
  A card is freely selected (no force) and kept facedown while its back is visibly marked with a bold X. The cards are mixed, and the performer not so amazingly locates the X-ed card. But then comes the surprise-although the performer is no sleight-of-hand wizard, he is a mentalist: the X-ed card is turned face up to reveal the words "My Prediction" printed on its face. All the cards may be examined or given away. Instant reset, ends clean, no switches.
• Xpert Vampire Hunter
  A participant selects and signs a card to represent her in the role of "vampire hunter." To represent a vampire, another card is signed with an ankh, the ancient symbol of the immortal; it is then lost within a packet of cards. The participant inserts here card face up into the packet anywhere she chooses: if she's a successful vampire hunter, the vampire will be found just beneath her card. But when the cards are spread, the vampire card is gone! Yet she's successful after all-her signed card is turned over, and inscribed on its back is the vampire symbol! This card is given to the participant as a truly bizarre souvenir. No specially printed cards, no palming, no swamis.

The Xpert device is the missing ingredient to my work on the X principle. No working magician or mentalist doing any X work can afford to be without this! -Kenton Knepper

You Can Do It by Boris Wild

Five Jumbo cards are shown and are used as a prediction of what is to come for the people of the company. Through audience participation, interaction and positive reinforcement it motivates your audience to be the best that they can be! Corporate patter, children's self-esteem patter, presentation suggestions and five colorful, jumbo laminated cards are included.

Zenner Tech by Mark Elsdon

One by one the cards are flipped over (the spectator can flip the cards over himself) and each card perfectly matches what is drawn on its back! Oh yeah, and the cards may be fully examined.

Zenner-Tech is a very direct and commercial ESP test. No extraneous props, no sticky cards and no sleights. It is perfect for a formal close-up or mentalism performance or as an encore piece when you need to perform a killer closer. The spectator makes all the decisions and yet the outcome is guaranteed, every time! If you want to add a stunning mental effect to your repertoire, then Zenner-Tech fits the bill.

Zinger by Meir Yedid

Three coins are placed on the table or in a spectator�s hand and a prediction coin is placed in your fist. A spectator freely selects any of the three coins. When you open your fist the prediction coin matches perfectly.

No extra coins, no switches, no forces. You will love performing this and will carry it with you -- everywhere. Very easy to learn and almost works itself. Comes complete with the necessary gaff and photo-illustrated instructions. Use your own coins.

Zodiac Influence

The stars influence your character, and effects using birth signs are of natural interest to spectators.

In this effect the performer displays four visiting size cards, with random Zodiac designs on their faces. The backs of the cards have all the twelve Zodiac designs. A spectator is asked to select his own or someone else's sign of birth.

He places the cards which have his selected design in your pocket, discarding the others face down on the table. The magician can reveal the selected design without looking at the faces of the cards, or asking any questions.

The Zodiac Influence is easy to perform, and comes to you complete with all the silk screened card and full working instructions.
