NEW ITEMS ARE ADDED AS I DIG THROUGH MY COLLECTION

The Boris Wild MARKED DECK - $15.00

Wild’s creative markings are easy to read and user-friendly. The marks are hidden in plain sight – you just have to know where to look because they are invisible to the uninitiated.

The deck comes complete with Wild’s instructions about using the deck. He also gives you several routines plus some tips and suggestions. The perfect professional deck, but easy enough for beginners.

BANDWIDTH by Gregory Wilson - $20.00 (NEW - never used)

Renowned for his creativity and off-the-cuff performance style, Gregory Wilson's BANDWIDTH is his latest seemingly impromptu miracle that allows you to borrow a spectator's finger ring and stretch it out like soft taffy. You then morph and manipulate the metal back to its previous circular form.

As if that weren't enough, you easily squeeze their ring in your hand until both sides touch. To finish, you restore their flattened wedding band with a Ninja-like stab of your finger -- in mid air!
The stunned spectator takes the ring off your finger to find everything, except their mind, back in its original condition.

Since people have such strong and emotional connections to their precious metal, that's why BANDWIDTH is so visually jarring and insanely unforgettable.

MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE UNPLUGGED - $100
by Scott Alexander and Puck

Advertised by Penguin for $495, but out of stock

No electronics or batteries required! Perform the same miracles Scott and Puck performed time and time again, but with this fool-proof mechanical version.

An impossible, one-man, prediction effect for the real working pros.

Effect: A sealed glass bottle containing a rolled up message is given to a volunteer in the audience to hold onto for safe keeping. Four random audience members are asked to help complete a story about being stranded on a deserted island. Their answers are recorded on a small dry erase board.

The person with the bottle is asked to bring it on stage and drop it into a paper bag where it is broken with a small hammer. The rolled up message is removed and then slowly unrolled between the performer and volunteer stretching across the stage. As it’s unrolled, the story is read aloud and matches all of the information given by the audience just moments before.

The unit comes with the super tin dry erase board and stand, paper bags, magic markers, eraser, and paper roll. It also includes a training video, new routine ideas, and a live performance demonstration.
