What trick do I have ?

Postby Chris » Oct 17th, '07, 11:32



Hey all

found a pack of red bikes last night.....theyve all got two mini cards printed on the backs with Blokes names is them? and the angels on seven of them are obviously animated or something as they move out of the picture and grab a card through their window and pull it back through?

My mind boggles, I think I recall buying it from International Magic some 9 years ago?

What is is ?

I think it's callled "Phil" or "Phil Trick" or something like that.

It's a packet trick with a play on the words "I'll name your card". Basically a card is selected and then you say "I'll name your card... It's called Phillip". Then the backs are shown and all of the cards have names on them. Sure enough the spec's card is called Phil.

Alakazam.

I think it's by a guy called Duffy but I can't be sure.

It's quite a good one.

EDIT: Oh hold on a minute, you say 'animated'. What do you mean? I may be wrong about the Phil thing then. :roll:

Hmm.

What are the names?

Do you mean they have those "flick-a-pic" (remember them, eh?) thingies on them, so they animate when you tilt them?

You're right, the mind does boggle. :shock:

:D I would offer that you forget the instructions. Take out the cards. look at them and what they do, and then ask yourself " How will these fit into my style?" It may take a while, but you will end up with an original approch to them that is yours alone, and fits your persona.
