Black & White Surprise is obtainable from Davenports at £18 plus p.p of course.
Personally I prefer Checker Chip( £14 from the same source) I used this for years and well remember whilst waiting for a Chinese Takeaway once in our local Chinese shop, I used to enterain the Chinese kids whilst waiting.One night, their mother, the lady owner, simply grabbed it off my hands. Examined it throughly. Pushed & pulled it but discovered nothing.
Her husband wanted to book me for Chinese New Year Night at the local ballroom.
The weekly Chinese shop visit was one fo the few times I broke my rule 'Not to pull magic out of my pocket at the drop of a hat'..not even a coolie one'.
Seen too many magicians do this and performed by an inept magician it can Magic sink. I always prefer to perfom as an Act: Stage, Cabaret, Stand Up Close Up or Children's. That is my way.
Checker Chip uses ONE brass chip. It 'changes' from white to black & black to white several times. Then when they think you are just turning it over, both sides become full of black & white squares. Checkered!
Fully examinable and a 4 second reset.
I always regret giving it away a couple of years ago to a younger magician, but the free prawn crackers are still there, every week!
