The performer now removes a prediction from an envelope that has been in view the whole time - it states, Somehow you thought of the Four of Spades! The only card that wasn't there! The spectator is speechless. Want to know why it's called Project-X? asks the performer. The spectator nods. The performer hands the envelope to the spectator. Inside is a single playing card with a big, black X on its back. It is the Four of Spades!
These are flowers for the Chick Pan.
The magician produces a square silk handkerchief at the conclusion of a trick. On it, in big, bold letters, are printed the words "Thank You."
Or are they?
No matter which way the magician turns the silk, the Thank You message never reads quite right. Great situation comedy with the laughs built right in. High quality silk for maximum visibility. Plays just as well in an auditorium as it does in a living room.
A needle is inserted into a tiny hole in the card case and a pencil with a tiny hole is balanced on top of the needle. The pencil can rotate freely. The cards are mixed and dealt face down around the case. The pencil starts to move upon its on and starts spinning really fast. You make absolutely no contact with the pencil or any of the set-up. The pencil is under your complete control. It slowly comes to rest, the pencil is pointing to one of the cards. The spectator is asked to name his card allowed and the card is turned over to reveal the selection!
Unlike other versions of the past, everything is completely examinable and no gimmicks, mechanical devices, nothing is found to be out of the ordinary or unusual.
