They say.....
Pentacles of Solomon

The Pentacles of King Solomon may be familiar to those with an interest in Magick or the Occult. They are mystic inscriptions that are alleged to have powers to heal or hurt, to germinate love or wealth, or empower you to control Evil Spirits or Master the Universe ... Whether you believe this is just so much mumbo jumbo, or the esoteric secrets of an ancient discipline is up to you. But it makes no difference to the purveyor of this demonstration, who can infallibly demonstrate the influence of these ancient Pentacles.

You display seven of these Pentacles, describing the mystic powers associated with them by the control of the Sun and Moon, and the other heavenly planets. The spectator freely selects any one of these. You demonstrate beyond a doubt, that this selection was preordained, and that these symbols do have an influence on one, whether cynic or disciple.

In simple magical terms, this means a spectator is free to select any one of seven symbols, which the performer has correctly predicted.

This is a new and novel prediction effect by Chris Wardle & Sam Dalal. There are no forces, - the spectator may select any one of the seven symbols, and this is the one that has been predicted by the performer.

But there is much more to this outfit than just the above prediction effect. The effect is made possible by a very clever Utility device, and we supply you half a dozen more of this device in two sizes which you can use or customize for your other effects, with a booklet of many other routines you can perform with this. Perform a clean Just Chance effect, or a Blind date one. Perform an incredible Colour Matching routine, or a Headline prediction. We would like to tell you what it is, just to impress you with the clever secret, but we'll save it for the ones that get this. All we will say is that if you perform close-up, or comedy or mental effects, you will like this as something new, and quite indispensable, and very good value for your money.

Price: £10

Now is this just me or is it fantastic value at £10 or am I missing something obvious and just blinded by the story? Anyone got this or had this?

Thanks

not got it - however i do have the "utility device(s)"..and they are very good indeed...

the major thing though is - you yourself said you were caught up in the presentation...so if you were, could you possibly sell that sense of awe to your punters? if its interesting to you, maybe it could be interesting to others..

plus, its only a tenner! it seems to have grasped your interest...all im saying is, some people say "is this cool?", you didnt, you gave it thought...i say you should buy it because of that...

I got the full package and I only ever used it a few times when I started on my path I now travel. Might have to get it again as it is so much more than I thought it was then don't even know where it is now. The utility device is very nice indeed

I was lucky enough to get this effect from Chris as a thank you for helping out backstage at a show he was performing in and, although I have never performed it as it doesn't really fit my style, I've had a play about with it and it seems pretty damn sound.

well, took the plunge and ordered it today, will have a play and will post a review ASAP. Well, the S stands for soonish
