This booklet by Steve Beam contains the latest from the same guy who brought you the flaming heckler illusion. Start with the Widow Maker color change – a stunningly visual and remarkably easy change of a playing card isolated from the magician’s touch. From here, a Triumph routine where the cards visually right themselves. In another eye-catcher, the red cards are placed on the table and the black cards halfway inside the card box. In less than a second, all the red cards are now in the case and all the black cards are on the table.

Cutting Class inspired numerous variations when it was first published in The Trapdoor. Here it is with Steve’s humorous presentation and of course, the explosive production of the four aces. In this case, the original is still the best.

Follow that with Five Spot – 5 different cards chosen by 5 different spectators in 5 different ways – and then all located instantly in a visual display. When Steve needs a miracle for a crowd with a borrowed and shuffled deck, this is Steve’s go-to killer!

Finally, there are three fully-routined presentations for brand new props which are sold separately. They are One in a Bazillion, PreDecktion, and Predicting the Past. Combining ideas by Lewis Jones, Don Wyatt, Bob Farmer, Michael Weber and Henry Hardin, Steve has created three miracle-class prediction effects. Each is explained fully and contains Steve’s signature humorous slant.
