Clone Zone
by Peter Duffie
Cloning is perfectly safe. Or is it?
After years of
experimenting in hidden laboratories, research scientists have
now made cloning available for the general public. They say
cloning provides the desired effect most of the time. Sounds a
little risky doesn't it? Trust me, it's worth the risk. Besides,
the audience always loves someone who lives life on the edge!
This routine is easy to perform, has no bad angles and resets quickly. It has a great story line and plays strongly in all close-up situations.
Four playing cards (we call them subjects) are placed on the table. Next, four cards are shown to be completely blank on both sides (these are actually the cloning plates). One by one the special cloning plates take the image of each of the subjects. However, since the cloned image is only temporary, the image fades without a trace. Remember, we talked about some risks earlier. Well, after the cloning plates have lost their cloned images and been shown blank again, the spectators are told that the cloning process has a risk of reversal. At this time the original playing cards are shown to have accidentally been cloned blank. This is when you tell the spectators, "they have just entered the Clone Zone".
You receive specially printed Bicycle back poker size cards and complete instructions. The instructions include tips, recommendations and variations for this remarkable effect.

The
Foolproof Locator Deck
from Bruno Canaldi
This Deck Does All Your Magic For You!
There are so many
applications for the Foolproof Locator Deck that its scary.
Any card from a regular deck added to the Foolproof Locator Deck
makes that card an instant locator card. How? Well let me explain
how the deck is configured. The entire deck has been trimmed
short and the corners re-rounded, so it looks, handles and
appears to be an ordinary deck in every respect. Now, if you take
any card from a regular deck and add it to this deck, that card
becomes a long card or a locator card. See!
These cards have been die cut to eliminate the jagged or pointed corners, commonly seen on other specially prepared cards. The card on the left is an unprepared card. The one on the right is from the Foolproof Locator Deck. (It's slightly shorter.) These cards are so well manufactured, when you lay one of the shorted cards on the table, the spectators just can't tell. They are really that good. In fact, you can hand them the Foolproof Locator Deck and let them handle and shuffle to their heart's content. Then, you introduce a regular card as the locator card and you'll blow them away with what you can do!
Lets suppose you want to use a short card. Well, any of the cards in the Foolproof Locator Deck can be added to a regular deck and used as short cards. So, now you can begin to appreciate that the Foolproof Locator Deck is a universal deck of cards with many applications.
You can use the deck in both ways, and use the locator cards as merely locators or they can actually be the force card. If you're working close-up and need to change the locator/force card to another value or suit to "throw them off", no problem. You have 52 cards to choose from.
You are sent the Foolproof Locator Deck along with the booklet of handling techniques and ideas, as well as Bruno's Family Spaghetti Sauce recipe as a bonus. Yes, you read that right. Hey, Bruno's just a really cool guy!
