Mick Simmons presents
NEW· RELEASES Ln MACIC!
DRINK UP.. Latest Success from America A clear plastic tumbler is filled with any liquid. A wand is laid ac.ross fingers of-i other hand, which is slowly turned palm outwards, but the wan_d stays put! It· can be turned in all directions-shown back and· front-yet it defies gravity. Wand is slowly lowered into tumbler-hand holding tumbler is removed-the tumbler is suspended in mid air. The fingers holding wand open slowly~full hand can be seen-yet-wand and tumbler still remain suspended. Finally, with fingers _of both hands wide ·open-everything is transferred to the other hand-where they remain suspended!! I A hoop can be passed over wand, tumbler and ar,m-at any time! The tip of the wand does not _touch the bottom of the t~mbler--:--at any time! Self contain'ed, no attachments to body or clothing. Can be performed surrounded. Easy to do. As performed by Cecil Cook.
The FALCON MACAZIN E TEAR Featured by famous American magician J.ohn Calve_rt, whl?se big show tours the world. A page is torn from a magazine, hands are sh.own empty-, the ·-page is torn into strips, folded together-opened out and shown restored. The audience is then shown "how it is done."·. Two pieces are used. One is· torn, folded and openly exchanged for the- other one. Now the "torn -pieces" are opened, but they are still "torn pieces" I Then follows some byplay in which 'you try to puf things right -:-but each time "torn pieces''! Finally, after showing both hands empfr, the torn pieces are magically restored. A brilliantly clever idea that will delight you •
. . The INDESTRUCTIBLE ROPE As featured by "Virgil" on his recent. Australian tou·r. A length of rope is shown .lnd cut. One end is placed into bottom of closed fist, the other end is dropped into top of closed fist and with magnetic-like rapidity Js completely restored!! This i~ repeated several times. Magici'an or layman will be· completely baffled l:iy this superlative cut and- restored rope classic. As cshown by Fred James at the Sydney Convention. ·
TABU. Just Arrived from Germany Five silks are shown separately and thrown· intO a borrow~d hat. A piece of rope is laid across the hat and INSTANTLY the_ five silks are found to be tied to the rope at regular intervals. By simply blowing on them the silks are immediately r':"leasedll The ~rope may ·be examin~d before .an? after the t_rick, and- only five silks and one piece of .rope ·used. Silks can be used for other purposes.
PHANSI FLICHT The last word in giant card .. tricks.
Three jumbo cards are shown. One is placed in a- .folder with a window opening so it is in view all the time. The second card. is rested against a tumbler. The third .card is used as a fan. On . removin,g the card from the folder ·it is found to have changed to the second card. The card against the tumbler is turned around and is seen to be-no, not the other card. Buf a big -surprise.! -roe sucker is too good to give away. Finally the missing card is produced "from .your pocket.
No double faced - cards. Folder can be examined.
