Paul Harris Presents.co.uk on-line Magic Shop is proud to present Strange Travelers by David Blaine.
This is David's single favorite effect. The actual deal-closer he used for most of his professional career. It helped him close the deal on his first Network T.V. special: Street Magic.
Effect
You show someone a batch of twenty cards... all different.
You give her ten of the cards to hold.
You now have her just think of one of the remaining ten cards. She never says a word. No one except her knows what card she's thinking of.
These ten cards are counted again. Strangely... there are now only nine. The one card she'd been thinking of has vanished! She's still only thinking of her card; it's never been named out loud!
She counts the cards she's been holding; cards you haven't touched since the beginning. But now she has eleven cards! The strange traveler has arrived... her thought-of card is now staring her in the face!
Strange Travelers is a streamlined version of a classic effect that was Nate Lepzig's favorite over 75 years ago. Other variations have come and gone. David re-discovered this hidden gem, and the rest is history.
And the really good news: Blaine's favorite effect is extremely easy to do.
No palming. No difficult moves. Just a simple elegant handling that just about anyone can learn.
Complete with Paul Harris' revised gimmick and routines, which includes a version where you start and finish with a normal deck.
Strange Travelers: David Blaine's favorite effect, his actual deal closer, can now be yours.
This effect has been on the market for some time but really is a nice card transposition.
It's strange in the world of magic how we often look for new releases for new material not backwards for great material!
The method is really simple and after reading the booklet you will be able to do this staight away.
