I've seen an advert in a magic catalogue for invisable TT. They apparantly allow you to finish clean and your hand examinable. Anyone know anything else about them?

Got a couple of these (2 variations).

Think Raven...

Problem is, they're a bit more difficult to 'wear'... plus long sleeves would be a must.

Stick with the regular TT - easy enough to ditch in waistband of trousers, pocket, behind back etc. with a little misdirection.

At the risk of repeating an old post (I love to live dangerously!) I saw the guy from Marvin's Magic - not Marvin, the other guy with the fair curly hair) on TV ages ago and he did the standard hanky vanish with TT.

Having pushed the hanky into the closed left fist with his right thumb, he reached into his shirt pocket, brought out the Ace of Spades held with finger and thumb as usual (fingers to the front, thumb to the rear), waved it over his left hand, replaced the card and, wonder of wonders, the left hand hand was empty - and so was the right hand!

Bloomin' brilliant and so simple!

I like that. I like it a lot. A damn fine excuse for ditching.

now I have to buy some shirts with pockets - it seems its not enough that I am spending money on magic tricks, books and dvds, but now I have to spend money on some "magic" clothes...

On that occasion I involuntarily said out loud, 'Well goodness gracious me' or words to that effect. Nobody else in the room could understand why and, even though I knew what he was doing and where to look, I still didn't spot the TT. And this was done in close up as well.

Insted of buying new clothes, why not go down to the local Charity Shops and ask if they'll do you a special deal on just the pockets? There must be folks out there who don't need a pocket and may willingly donate one or two. Whatever you do, don't select your own 'cos people will say you're a Pickpocket (sorry !)

I'm happy to start the appeal by donating the pocket off my jim jams. As long as you don't mind having the Teletubbies on your shirt.

The Invisible TT is perfect if you are performing for a roomful of magicians who know about TTs and want to turn the hose on them. If you perform for real people? Save your money
