The PH Invisible Palm aka Open Travellers

Postby GoldFish » Mar 29th, '05, 23:21



This is for comparison's sake between Mog's version (which I think looks flows better) and Paul Harris's version. Mog's can be found here http://www.talkmagic.co.uk/ftopic4462.php

Admittedly this routine does flow better with the patter but unfortunately I left my microphone at Uni so I can't record anything for it, sorry. The flexing of the fingers during the Tent Vanish is linked to the patter which talks about squeezing the cards into the folds of the hand. That said I do like the sweeping action that Mog uses and I've included a second clip of both methods as well for comparisons sake.

All the best,

P.S. Five points to anybody who can determine the link between the music and the trick for The Invisible Palm Clip

Try buying the book instead. You'll learn far more from it than from watching a 2 minute video clip over and over.

this was pretty much the same routine i used to use but the last vanish always didnt seem right to me..why pick up the deck for the last vanish?... so i used the start of this one and the end of the one i use now BUT i still think this version loses some of the magic due to the fact that the packets are switched for the second vanish... especially if one packet is red and the other is black. Personally i think Arnauds version is far superior (not because its the one i like but simply the fact that theres no superfluous movements.. like using the deck for the last vanish)

Ditto. I really dislike the final vanish and I aggree about the packet switch, but I think it can be less of an issue if it's done off hand. Do you know the source of Arnaud's version? (That final vanish is fantastic!!).

FYI,
The version of Invisible palm that Arnaud uses is his own variation of the effect.

Actually it's his handling. But the first vanish is Paul Harris and the second is Marlos with some Ascanio displays for the card handling. The last is a Jennings steal but the vanish of the card is his and a thing of beauty. I think it's rigged but what do I know it's beautiful.

Good demonstration. I will be using this routine as an offhand effect. Works very well with black tiger cards with red pips, it adds a little more impact. It took me three views to realise how you did itthe first was just to watch, the second to watch your vanishes again, the third, well, it just came. Good work :)
