Prof. Hoffman long back explained this classic piece of magic in his book Modern Magic.
Since these cages are folding and collapsed position take very small space, several can be produced from any standard production prop. After production these cages are rigid, look genuine and stand on its base like normal cages. Alternately the cages can be hanged on display stands. If wished the cages can hold foam imitation birds.




  
This is one of the best close-up miracle ever developed. Perform it right under the noses of the spectators and watch their reaction.
You show two playing cards. Take out a match stick or borrow one. Now you place the picture of the Lady(supplied) on one of the cards, you give your magical spell(?). Slowly and visibly the Lady floats above the card about half of an inch. This is no visible support, yet it rises up.
To further prove that there is no support of any kind, you pass the other playing card under it! Again at your command the Lady comes down and rests on the card.
  


A large card (8 .5” X 6” approx.) is shown to have ONE spot in front and FOUR on the on the back.
Turning it over … it is seen now that there are THREE spots in the front and SIX on the reverse. Certainly an Eye-Popper effect but there is more to come!
The performer offers to disclose the secret! He shows the back and front of the card … that there are really TWO spots one side and FIVE spots on the back. They are arranged such that just by covering either a spot or a blank space … it’s possible to show in succession ONE – FOUR – THRE or SIX spots!
While the audience laughs at the wiles of the magician … they’re dumbfounded as turning the card once again … with fingers at the extreme edges of the card with entire face of the card visible … the following sequence takes place …
On one side are seen FOUR spots … on the other THREE spots … to be followed, on turning … SIX spots … ONE spot … next believe your eyes or not …EIGHT spots!
No flaps are used, nicely made; smooth and easy handling Pip Card is a Comedy-Miracle!
    


This effect creates much mirth and merriment! You use it in any effect where you have a kid as your assistant. You show a colorful fan, open and close it then give it to the kid to open it. When he does, it breaks apart into several sections!!! You show him once again, and that works. But as soon as he tries … it breaks apart again. This is repeated as long as needed.

Made in metal and cloth this is an effect you won’t want to miss.






This is a visual magic at its best! A picture of legendary actor Charlie Chaplin in black ‘n white is displayed inside a pasteboard holder. However, with a little magical mumbo-jumbo, the picture is slowly pulled out of the holder. Surprisingly, as it’s comes out, it visibly changes to a colored picture.

You receive the artistic picture in its holder ready to work.

 
This is colorful magic and should be a hit in any act! You show a feather flower dart sans any flower. Just wave the dart and a beautiful red flower appears at the top of dart. Wait, that’s not all! You momentarily cover the flower with your shown-empty palm and the flower changes its color – from Red to bright Yellow!

A self-working magic needs only handling practice.
