Review
Looking Glass, is not a trick. It's a re imagining of an old, Clasic gimmick, which enables the performer to do many thinigs.
Imagine being able to have a spectator take a bill from his wallet, and with no fishing, you tell them the serial number with 100% accuracy.
This is but one thing you can do with this handy item. That should read items, since you recieve 2 gimmicks)
many people will look at the gimicks supplied, and think is that it?
#And in the case of Looking Glass, the answer to that is no. Watch the dvd, and you will see the possibilities are endless with this handy little peek device.
And if you look through the classic books on cheating, you will find many more.
This type of gimmick has always been available, but Looking glass brings it up to date, and at a price most can afford.



Overall
This is Worth getting, and with imagination, is a winner.

without giving to much away, can I ask, does your eye sight need to be good. I purchased the logical deck, based on a review and found I was unable to use it.

you have to be able to have reasonable sight. but you can within reason adjust your handling in the effects, to suit you.
That said, if you are using something bold, the indicies of a card for example.. no problems at all.
Like i said in my review, its a tool which you can play with, and create your own routines.
