Name: Business Card Merger
Price: £5.99 from Abrakazam
Type: Miscellaneous
Difficulty: 2.5/5
Performance Time: 2 minutes
Examinable: The card - yes. The wallet - no.
Reset Time: Er - If you give the card away, you can't. If not a few seconds.

Effect: Every magician wants to give out a business card in a memorable way. You have one card left, and tear the corner off and give it away.Then have the card returned, merge it with the torn piece and hand it back again!! No switches and only one card is used the entire time.

Comments: When I got this I thought it was rubbish. I could have made it myself but it's not worth ruining a wallet. After practicing I found out it wasn't too bad. You need to be able to Finger Palm the torn piece but other than that there no real skill required. It could be made to look very magical if you practice a lot, like everything. This is made by Sterling Magic and has fairly clear instructions. The best thing is the card can look like it's restored visually if you tilt the wallet a bit. I would probably buy this again, but only if I lost it.

Overall Rating: 7/10
