Sorry to interrupt the jocularity but I'm interested to find out if there is actually a signed card thru window effect available out there? Someone above mentioned that there's loads but I really don't know of any and the only way I can think of to do it cleanly is the aformentioned 'two beers' method.

Quite true. There's a story about when Pizza Hut produced the Ultimate Pizza with every topping imaginable and advertised it as 'The Ultimate' One guy phoned to order it but asked for extra cheese on it thus proving it wasn't 'ultimate' at all!

Was it you?

Nah - I asked for extra pepperoni but they'd run out of it !

I've got the perfect pizza topping - margherita with anchovies, pepperoni, red onions and black olives

'two beers' method??

I think he meant if you buy him two beers he will tell you how to do it

lol

well i guess there must be a way of doing it. I mean Cyril has done its loads of times, quite a few times under impossible conditions. check his videos

I have also check out this home-made magic party. And yes I was totally impressed with the CTW trick. Now, without breaking ethic rules here, just wanted to comment this trick.
Day after I saw this clip, I wonderd how it could be done. It is signed card through window. And a assume that she was NOT stooge. Then I got an idea how it could be done. There is a another card trick that uses a very clever thing. I dont wanna go deep into it, put there is one thing a want to know, the signature on the card which the old lady sign, was it exactly same all the time? From where she maked the sign and after she got the card back? Hard to see. I know my question can make some exposury. But I hope not. Caus what Iam thinking of it is possible to do exactly the same thing, signed card through window.

Hmm, I think it might be a more subtle use of beer than just to buy a method off Dale!

That's nothing... watch this one instead, it is truly better:

That's Cyril - the link has been mentioned a few times before but it's still entertaining to see.

I'm pretty sure its windowmation, because at 1:13 on the video, I'm positive he hands a top-palmed card to a stooge rt behind the girl who selected the card...
and isn't the bottom card also a 3 of clubs?

bottom card is the 3 of spades but I like your thinking
