Hey, well this may sound stupid but I have heard of glasse syou can buy that allow you to see through certain cards. Does anyoen have any information on this? You could do some awesome tricks with it.


Oh and another question I'm lookign for a magic shop mear to where I live, I like in England and was wonderign if there is like a directory or a website where i can find local ones.

Thanks

a directory or a website where I can find local ones.

Visit http://www.ipswichmagicalsociety.co.uk/, then Links and there's a listing of shops, clubs and societies by area.

I've never heard of anything like this. There are much simpler and probably more effective ways of accomplishing what this thing you've described would do (marked decks, stacked decks, etc.)

Link doesn't work


The glasses worked as an X-ray or something, I saw it in a movie lol, people cheating at poker.

What about the link in my sig?

You may be referring to 'juiced' cards, of which some varieties are read with polarised glassed or contact lenses.

However, these are actually marked on the back - the glasses don't allow you see see through them, as such - just read the, otherwise invisible, markings.

Oh - and the link should be: http://www.ipswichmagicalsociety.co.uk

that movie was... errr... that on with sly stallone in it and r. paul wilson doing stuff on the intro, i forget what is't called but they weren't x-ray specs, they filtered the light so an otherwise invisible ink on the rear of the cards showed up.
