Paul Harris - Strip (with Gimmick) by Jose LaC'Quest

Available from http://www.mjmmagic.com/store/paul-harr ... 10153.html

Price : $39.95

Difficulty: 1
(1=easy to do, 2=No sleights, but not so easy, 3=Some sleights used,
4=Advanced sleights used, 5=Suitable for experienced magicians only)


They say:
This tiny pocket pack of NAME BRAND breath strips contains an invisible change device that AUTOMATICALLY transforms, vanishes or produces small flat objects.

A few of the endless effects possible: produce a selected card, vanish a bill, visually restore a torn label. EVERYTHING can be examined right after the effect.

Carry the breath strip pack in your pocket; then, whenever you want, bring it out, let a spectator slide out a tasty breath strip...then perform your favorite STRIP astonishment.

STRIP IS FULL-VIEW VISUAL MAGIC. JUST CLOSE THE TRANSPARENT LID TO AUTOMATICALLY ACTIVATE THE CHANGE.

You can perform all strip effects without any cover. Simply close the transparent lid and enjoy the ride. You can even let a spectator do the entire effect herself! She just taps the strip pack... and the visual, in-your-face effect still happens! And, yes, she can still immediately examine everything!

Nothing to palm, add or get rid of.

Resets in five to ten seconds!

STRIP really does everything for you!

Jose Lac'Quest's STRIP comes complete with supply of normal breath strips and DVD.

I say:

This is one of the most visual magic that happens under the spectators' nose and they won't find nothing!!
The method is simple yet very visual and they will keep asking you to perform it.

One of the other reasons why this is so great is that the item looks very innocent and it is an everyday thing.

Get this! You'll enjoy every performance with it. It might look too expensive for a package of breath strips but the effect will stay with your audience forever.


Strip uses a genuine gimmicked strip case that can be completely examined at the end of the effect. The gimmick is not "portable" and is permanently built into the case.

Overall:
impressive! I am super-happy with this and can't wait to have a play witha number of the routines. it can be done anytime and anywhere.

Rating out of 10: 11/10

I have this.

I think it's great, , I come up with a nice routine and it plays great, I thought there might be a problem as breath strips are not to common in the UK but nobody has mentioned it and people seem to know what they are.

Great little effect and plenty of room to play with many different ideas.

Replacement strips

Hi
I know this thread hasn't been used in a while but I have just purchased Strip and noticed almost immeadiately that not many places in the UK sell the breath strips anymore. Its a great effect and I didn't want to be limited to teh 20 or so performances the supplied strips allows. If you do have this, live in the UK and are having problems sourcing a ready supply of breath strips try Stripsrus.co.uk, they stock the named brand ones too. Have just stocked up with a few packets!
