No. 13. The Card in Glass
This is a trick which utilises a technique which is new and which is the result of work done by Mr. Eric Mason. It is not at all easy to do, but is well worth the trouble taken in practice. The effect. The Mentalist writes the name of a playing card (or a number, word, colour, etc.) on a small white card. This card he drops into an empty glass which stands on a table. The audience then decide upon any playing card and then the card in glass is tipped straight from the tumbler into the spectator's hands. He reads the name of the chosen playing card on the prediction c a r d ! The method is to have a glass with a fairly large oval hole cut near the base on one side. The Mentalist can write on the card whilst it is in the glass by pushing his thumb through the hole. The card should be a tight fit in the glass and will then hold steady for writing with the Swami. The fact that the card is visible all the time in the glass precludes ail suspicion of trickery. The half pint tumbler size of glass is used. No. 14.

Inside the envelope you have given them is another smaller o n e ; it is a window envelope as described on earlier pages. In the window envelope is a card in the proper position for filling in the facts, and on the card is written your prediction. Dear Mr. Williams. I am writing this now and in a week's time you will he reading it! When I meet you, I will ask you to name any person you have met during the week and . . . . will he the name you say! You can keep this card. COR1NDA. 21 The prediction is on one side of the card, your name and address on the other for future bookings! Needless to say, you arrive and as soon as you meet the person Mr. Williams, say "Hallo—before you say anything— name someone you have been talking to this week—better be someone I don't know". Later ask for the sealed envelope and open it yourself and take out the next envelope the right way up; whilst reminding him of the name he chose you fill it in, then slit open the small envelope and partly pull out the card—allowing him to pull it right out and read it. This is a very good publicity stunt. Download 304.45 Kb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
