Kit Felgate’s P&P
Effect: The magician introduces a pack of playing cards and a stapler. He spreads through the cards to show that they are all different, he shuffles and cuts the deck and asks for a spectator to choose a playing card. For example, they choose the Ace of Spades (this can be signed by the spectator if you wish). This is put to one side as the magician again cuts the deck and asks the spectator to choose a card for him, they do, and it is the 10 of Hearts (the magician can sign his card if he wishes).
The magician then staples the Ace of Spades to the card box, and shows the spectator the card face while it is stapled. He then takes the 10 of Hearts and slowly rubs it over the stapled Ace. Suddenly there is a loud snapping sound. The magician shows two puncture holes have appeared on the back of his 10 of Hearts, he slowly turns it over to reveal it has in fact changed to the spectators Ace of Spades. The magician then slowly peels back and rips off the stapled card to reveal it is now his 10 of Hearts. The cards have changed places under impossible circumstances.
The stapler and the stapled cards make this a memorable routine.
Review: This effect is an absolute stunner! It plays exactly as it reads. This is about as impossible as card effects come. The possibilities with i are also brilliant. The PDF is brilliantly put together and has pictures to help everyone along. Although the gimmicks won’t last a life time and you will have to make a couple, it is well worth it. If you’re looking to secure a venue or a gig, then this trick will do the job hands down. Kit has done a fantastic job with this effect and I’m sure we have yet to see the full potential of his wondrous thinking. This is a must have for any card worker and one I would highly suggest getting!
