What is the best gimmick or trick where you can have a box or pouch sitting on the table and you vanish an object, it appears in the box?

Is there anything, I'm sure there is but I couldn't find anything, besides a Lippincott box?

Thanks!

what kind of object did you have in mind?

by **Ian The Magic-Ian** » Sep 19th, '08, 21:45

A folded card. I know there are other ways to do this but if it is possible I would like to let the spectator unlock it or open it up for a majority of the effect.

LIPPENCOT BOX... still one of the most practical "inexpensive" utility systems of this sort... there's another bit but not as "clean" -- a nest of little brass "snuff" boxes... but not as "impossible" in my mind. :wink:

There's the box by John Kennedy, but unless your pretty damn clever, you have take the card from the box. Although they could open it.

I'm surprised you're asking this. Lenoir - considering you're being tutored by one of the greatest card magicians in the world. Why not just ask him? He has a routine on YouTube with a tiny box underneath an upturned glass that blows my mind!

Okay I"ll do a Lippencott box. I was just wondering if there was anything else, thanks for the replies.

If you can wait Ian, I am seeing Michael sometime in the week, I expect Wednesday evening, I'll ask about it. If you can't wait, I'll drop him an email/text or just give you his email!

Although rather odd, I haven't seen him perform the effect myself, maybe Queen of Clubs could send us a link and you could see if that's what you intend to perform.

The lippencott I reviewed should be alright for your needs. If its a business card sized prediction then it'll need to be folded twice to fit. Its too small for anything much more than that size load.

Sure! Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxhXzYQ9_vA

I love this a LOT! I'm still looking for a hinged wooden box like the one in this video myself. Non gimmicked as what I'd use it for wouldn't require any kind of jiggery-pokery, just delicious sleight of hand.

by **Lenoir** » Sep 21st, '08, 00:18

Excellent stuff. I will be 100% ask him about the box for both of you on Wednesday!

Look up Vox Box. I was actually looking at purchasing this. The blurb says you can vanish any item and have it appear in your card case.

It's just a normal small little wooden box with a little DIY :wink:

His sleight of hand is what makes the trick
