SIDEWALK SHUFFLE
The Three Card Monte as performed by well-known magician Martin Lewis. A classic of magic that will leave your audience gasping!
You display three jumbo-sized (4.5" by 7") blank 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... you reveal that all three of the cards in your hands are blank and it was the Ace that was placed aside!
This is repeated with the same result!
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 blank, and the three cards in your hands are all Aces!
Only the same four cards are used throughout - no extra cards! Easy to learn but your audience will credit you with great skill! Comes complete with four jumbo Bicycle-backed cards and illustrated 8-page booklet. Get yours today at Tin City Magic!
NEW LOOK MAGIC COLORING BOOK
The Comedy & Magic Coloring Book is an amazing effect that fools and entertains everyone! Best of all, it's always ready to go and easy to perform.
You show a coloring book - with outlines on each page - but none of the pages are colored in. A wave of your hand, and instantly all of the pages are colored in vibrant colors!
You then explain that recycling is important, and you need to use your book the next time you perform. With another wave of your hand, all the colors disappear -- but wait, not only the colors but also the lines are gone! The book is totally blank!
Fortunately, you give the coloring book a shake, and the original pictures appear like magic!
Our new coloring book features bright colors and great images featuring humorous drawings of magicians and clowns. Pick one up today at Tin City Magic!

CARD ON CEILING

A spectator selects a card. The card is buried into the deck, and the deck is wrapped with a rubber band. The deck is then thrown to the ceiling leaving the spectator's selected card stuck to the ceiling. Includes all materials needed to perform this classic effect including a regular deck of Bicycle playing cards. Get yours today at Tin City Magic!
GHOST CARD
A playing card is selected and lost in the deck. You remove a rectangular piece of clear glass from a pouch, clean it with a soft cloth, and place it on top of the deck. You say the glass will pick up the essence of the selected card.
You hold the glass over a cup of coffee for a moment. A miniature image of the selected card mysteriously appears on the glass! You then wipe the glass off and it disappears! The glass is totally clear! If desired, the effect may be repeated with a different card.
The image can also be made to appear in other ways, for example by breathing on the glass, holding it over a lit candle, or by lighting a piece of flash or tissue paper on the surface. Our model is the best on the market, as the full card appears and disappears on the glass. Totally under the performer's control. Very easy to do and a great trick that appeals to all audiences. Carry it in your pocket and do it anytime. Use any deck of cards! Get yours today at Tin City Magic!

ABC BLOCKS
Classic old-world craftsmanship in a great trick that you will be proud to own!
Three wooden blocks labeled "A,B, & C" and a square tube are displayed. Block "A" is removed and placed in a hat. The remaining two blocks are covered with the tube. The audience is asked the location of block "A". Naturally they say "in the hat" and you remove the block to show that they are correct. The tube is also lifted to show the position of the remaining two blocks. Now for the magic. Block "A" is placed on top of the other two blocks and the entire stack is covered with the tube. The audience is now asked the position of Block "B". But the unexpected happens. The tube is lifted and block "B" is gone even though it was between two other blocks. You then reach into the hat and remove block "B".
This is a true mystery that will have their heads spinning. High quality construction makes this trick a pleasure to perform. Available now at Tin City Magic!
SHO-GUN WALLET
The original Sho-Gun created by Elbert Gardner and produced by master craftsman Jerry O'Connell. The most devious, yet innocent switching wallet ever devised. You will find many ways to use this clever device. |
HOT ROD KNIFE
Two classic effects - the Hot Rod and the Color Changing Knife - combined into one great trick!
You show an elegant pocket knife with six bold colors on each side. One color is selected, and the entire knife changes to that color - on both sides! Then it changes back, and finally you end up with the original six colors on one side, and the chosen color on the reverse. The knife can be examined, and functions as a great pocket knife as well!
The Hot Rod Knife is manufactured by Joe Mogar and matches the Mogar color changing knives. The Hot Rod Knife can be used by itself or it can be incorporated into a longer routine with other Mogar knives. The action on all of the Mogar knives is wonderful and you will love performing with them. This is the perfect trick to carry in your pocket - you'll always be ready to show a trick!
Produced in limited quantities, these are available now at Tin City Magic.
SLEIGHTS OF MIND
Neuroscientists Stephen Macknik and Susana Martinez-Conde, the founders of the exciting new discipline of NeuroMagic — and also members of the Magic Castle, Magic Circle, International Brotherhood of Magicians, and the Society of American Magicians — have convinced some of the world's greatest magicians to allow scientists to study their techniques for tricking the brain. Magic tricks work because humans have a hardwired process of attention and awareness that is hackable—a good magician uses your mind's own intrinsic properties against you in a form of mental jujitsu. By understanding how magicians hack our brains, we can better understand how the same cognitive tricks are at work in advertising strategy, business negotiations, and all varieties of interpersonal relations. When we understand how magic works in the mind of the spectator we will have unveiled the neural bases of consciousness itself.
Sleights of Mind is the result of the authors' multi-year, world-wide exploration of magic and how its principles apply to our behavior. Now magic can reveal how our brains work in everyday situations. For instance, if you've ever bought an expensive item you'd sworn you'd never buy, the salesperson was probably a master at creating the "illusion of choice," a core technique of magic. The implications of neuromagic go beyond illuminating our behavior; early research points to new approaches for everything from the diagnosis of autism to marketing techniques and education. Sleights of Mind makes neuroscience fun and accessible by unveiling the key connections between magic and the mind.

VERSADEX WALLET
A practical and elegant index wallet that doesn't require pockets and can be used in plain sight. Created by Larry Becker, this is the wallet magicians and mentalists want!
This VERSAtile inDEXing wallet includes five complete, audience-proven routines and unlimited potential! Plus, you can easily create your own uses, or use it as a Himber wallet!
VERSADEX is beautifully hand fashioned from the highest quality black calf leather and features three deep compartments for credit cards plus two facing pockets to hold business cards and your paper currency. It's 4" wide x 6-3/4" long (10cm x 17cm) to provide a filing cabinet's instant access and easy indexing for business cards, billets, playing cards, and more.
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!
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. Available now at Tin City Magic!

Joe Porper is a master craftsman, and it is evident in his Porper Chips. Tin City Magic is proud to offer Joe Porper Originals to our customers.

Do this with the three remaining red chips, each one changing to yellow on both sides in your hands! The routine, performed by Earl Nelson in the full-color photo instructions, is a gem! Comes with a set of four precision-made chips, the special gimmick, leather carrying case, and complete instructions. Available now at Tin City Magic! |
