[Happy Toad]

Effect:

A box of matches is shown and opened to reveal it is full of red tipped non-safety matches. The performer removes a single match and a spectator takes it in his closed fist, the box then being shut and placed on his other palm.

The magician aims to make all the matches change to black tipped safety matches, and indeed when the spectator opens his fist he finds the match now has a black tip to it!

Not only this, but when the box is pushed open and the drawer removed, the matches which are tipped out are all seen to have changed to safety matches as well!

Simple to do, you receive the special matchbox and instructions. An ideal off beat pocket trick.

Price: £3

Difficulty: 1/5 possibly a very easy 2

Comments:
Excellent little trick, needs a very easy palm. For 3 quid you really can't go wrong. I've actually only done this once, but left the jaw of the spectator suitably dropped.
