ACAAN (Any Card At Any Number) - You table a cased deck, then remove a small, thin note-pad from your shirt pocket and ask one person to name ANY card. Let's assume he says, "The Queen of Spades." You record this on the pad. You next ask a second person to name ANY number from 1 to 52. Let's assume this person says, "22". You record this too, then pick up the cased deck. You remove the cards and show that they are all different. You hand the deck to one of them, and ask that he deals down to the 22nd card... it's the Queen of Spades!If you would like to inject a little comedy... once the card and number have been named, you can explain that you have a giant playing card in your pocket (or an envelope) and ask if everyone would be impressed if the named card was on its face, and the named number was on its back? When they reply... you remove the card and... ALL 52 card faces are printed on its face and ALL the numbers from 1 to 52 are printed on its back! You now allow at least five minutes for the laughter to subside! (£12.00).
Do not confuse ACAAN with inferior 'A card at Any Number' routines, where either you name the card or they select one. The presentations in ACAAN are NOTHING like that! BACK TO TOP
There are 58 possible locations, and someone is asked to imagine that they have buried all their worldly goods at one of these locations.
You now start to deduce, letter-by-letter, the name of their thought of location. However, way before you have called out all the letters, you stop, pick up the four pieces, stick a label onto one of them and hand it to the spectator face down. He reveals where he mentally buried his things, and discovers that you stuck the label, with an X drawn on it, at that very location!
100% self-working. Remove the label and you're re-set.
If, once you have printed out the four map sections, you laminate them, you can draw an X, with a dry-wipe marker, rather than use a label. (£9.00)

Their cards are lost - you genuinely don't know where they are in the deck!
You now put the cards into your empty pocket then, seconds later... produce both selections! The rest of the deck is now removed and you are able to continue with any other card routines that you have mastered.
The instructions detail FOUR presentations - the one above, one performed with a face up deck, one involving four people (ideal for two married couples - to see if they are compatible) and a 100% impromptu version with ANY deck. (£9.00) BACK TO TOP
You next explain that you are thinking of a word, and ask them to try and read your mind. They say that they think your word is... SOAP. You act astonished and say that it was! You then remove the four red backed cards, seen earlier, and a letter has appeared on the back of each of them. The four letters are... S, O, A and P!
THE DECK CAN NOW BE EXAMINED!
HASH-TOWN-DING is my version of the Paul Harris routine "Deep Astonishment". (£9.00)

E-OMEGA - (The world's only examinable B'Wave) - Two sets of blue Bicycle backed aces are shown. You table one set face down and have someone name ANY ace. With the other set behind your back, you manage to reverse their named ace (big deal!) However, you now spread the tabled set and their ace has magically reversed there too! Next, you hand someone your set of aces and, whilst in their hands, the face of their ace VANISHES and the backs of the other three change from blue to RED! (they are now examinable!)
Finally, someone picks up the tabled set and, with the cards in their hands, their ace becomes RED backed and the faces of the other cards VANISH! (they are also examinable!). Please click the link at the bottom of this page to read comments from satisfied Omega customers etc.
Now supplied with my improved "Omega Plus" routine (inspired by a Jerry Sadowitz idea) and my "Omega E.S.P." routine. (£10.00) BACK TO TOP
E-MIND-POWER - A fork and a spoon are shown. Someone chooses one... leaving you with the spoon (ho, ho!), which you now bend using 'the power of your mind' alone.Actually you do bend it, but... by pressing it against your forehead!
However, it now visibly straightens (all by itself!) then slowly bends again, whilst held in one hand only, snaps in two and is handed out for immediate examination!
Self-working... nobody does it for you!
Guaranteed to last a lifetime... if you only have six months to live!
Every demonstration results in a sale... I've bought 43 so far!
You'll make a gimmicked spoon, and also need a regular fork. (£9.00)
BACK TO TOP
Believe it or not... it's an even faster transposition than the one you saw the Pengragons do on TV with their 'Metamorphosis' sub-trunk illusion!
Best of all... it's 100% self-working, but looks like incredible sleight-of-hand or REAL magic!
Automatically re-sets! VERY topical as virtually EVERYONE does the LOTTO (lottery)! PLUS.. you can use ANY country's Lotto ticket and currency.
Now supplied with my E-FLASH CASH routine (normally £9.00), FREE OF CHARGE! (£9.00)

E-EXHIBIT B - This is a really funny murder mystery routine. The zippered "case" (used to house everything) is "re-opened" and the possible weapons and five laminated clue-cards are removed. With your help, the spectator now deduces which of the weapons was used. Once he's done so, you explain, humourously, why the other weapons couldn't possibly have been used, so... he's effectively solved the murder! This means that everything can be returned to the case, which can then be... officially closed!
No re-set is needed! Ideal for close-up or "murder weekend" shows!
*NOT SUITABLE FOR NON-ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRIES*
Easily adapted for cabaret!
As used by Simon Lovell on TV. (£9.00)

E-VORTEX CARDS - Two full-colour laminated Visa-type credit cards are shown. As you hold one, and move it in a circle, the image of a silver coin appears at its centre, which (incredibly as it sounds) you then shake off into reality! You then explain that it can just as easily be deposited back into your bank-account and removed whenever you want it.
Once you've produced several coins, you can use the two Vortex Cards as covers for your favourite matrix routine.
This is an optical oddity that you will love AND use!
Pop the two Vortex Cards in your wallet and you're always ready to perform! (£9.00)
BACK TO TOP
E-MISSING LINK - Three playing cards (or business cards) are shown and then, with herculean strength, you tear out their centres - in order, you explain, to magically link them together. Once they have been linked, they are then torn apart (to break the chain), then the "hoops" are restored and handed out for immediate examination.
Once you've bought THE MISSING LINK, you need NEVER buy it again or even send off for more replacement gimmicks!
Why? Because you can make future gimmicks yourself in less than five seconds!
Now also supplied with a 100% impromptu handling. (£9.00)
BACK TO TOP
E-FADE AWAY - Three face down cards are show and tabled to one side for the moment. Introducing a regular deck of cards, you have one selected, signed across its face, returned and then lost.
The deck is now set aside, as you show the three cards tabled earlier. Incredibly, ALL THREE appear to be the signed selection! Then the cards become shy and refuse to show their faces in public, backing away from everyone (all three cards now have backs on both sides!) Finally, they all return to normal!
This is a brilliant routine (modest ehhh?) and easy to perform. Only three cards are used - apart from those in your deck that is! (£9.00) BACK TO TOP
E-PARADOX - This is an incredible topological curiosity with a playing card and a third! Four odd shaped pieces, cut from Bicycle playing cards, are tabled. You explain that three of the pieces marry together to form the shape of a complete playing card. The extra piece is only supplied in case of emergencies (i.e. if you lose a piece!) The extra 'emergency' piece is shown to be the same shape as one of the other pieces and is then set aside.
Strangely, although YOU easily solved the 'apparently' simple jig-saw puzzle... no one else can!
(100% Self-working!). (£9.00) BACK TO TOP
E-LAZARUS CARD - This is the strangest rising card method ever. Why? Because the card that rises IS the actual gimmick! Also, the selected card rises AND (to amusing patter) its back changes from red to blue! This means that you only have to pocket it, which is logical as its back no longer matches the rest of the cards, and... THE DECK IS CLEAN!
*No weights, threads, elastics, springs, electronics, cut-out cards or ANYTHING like you've ever seen before!*
*Add the gimmicked card to ANY red backed Bicycle deck!*
(£9.00)

E-QUARTET - Four cards (you could use jumbos) are shown. They are all the same on the face, but one has flipped face down. They are shown again and a second has flipped face down. This is repeated until only one remains face up. You now ask if they'd like to 'see' the final card VISIBLY flip face down? They would, but aren't too impressed when you simply remove it, and openly turn it over!
However, when the four cards are dealt face up to the table... they are now all completely different, and match the four freely 'forced' cards that they chose earlier!
This routine is great for mastering the Elmsley Count! (£9.00) BACK TO TOP
E-MATRIX RELOADED - Four laminated cards are shown to each bear the image of coin. (I can supply you with images of cards bearing either 50p coins or Kennedy half-dollars - specify which you'd prefer by separate e-mail to: stephen.tucker1@tesco.net). They are tabled, one at each corner of your mat or, if strolling, one on each of four up-turned palms. The coins on three of the cards vanish and appear on the fourth card... in true matrix fashion. THEN... the four images are shaken off the card into reality! This leaves you with four double blanks and four REAL coins!
If you like, you can now perform your favourite coin-matrix with the 'real' coins using the blank cards as covers.
EASY TO PERFORM (Only very basic card and coin handling used). AUTOMATICALLY RESETS (£9.00) BACK TO TOP
Note: The e-version of OMEGA contains the original OMEGA routine, my OMEGA PLUS routine, (inspired by a Jerry Sadowitz observation), my OMEGA-ESP routine and various quotes and advertising blurb associated with OMEGA.
The e-version of MIND-POWER is now fully illustrated, unlike the original, and is complete with the actual patter that I use in performance.
The advantage (to you) of ordering an e-version is that you will receive it (via e-mail) the instant I have received confirmation of your payment via PayPal. You will not need to wait a week or more for the item(s) to arrive through the post!
Plus... I will only convert those routines in my range that require an absolute minimum of DIY. I guarantee that, no matter your level of expertise, you will have no problems in making up the items. Several only require the use of standard Bicycle card fakes, such as double backers etc. Example: OMEGA makes use of four blank faced cards and four regular aces.
Another advantage (to you) is that the cost of the e-version is between £3 and £16 lower than that of the actual version.
Note: Joint rights to MIND-POWER were recently purchased by Peter Nardi, of Alakazam Magic, who intends producing it on dvd shortly. Enquiries to: sales@alakazam.co.uk
