Echec & Mat

Powerful close-up magic
Manufactured in brass by European craftsmen

Real magic happens in the spectator's hand, and Echec & Mat does just that. The effect is totally self contained and leaves your hands completely empty.

A brass disk, held in the magician's hand, changes magically from black to white to black, again and again. It isn't long before the spectator realizes that the disk is white on one side and black on the other. I mean, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out, right?

The magician now places the chip in the hand of the spectator. When he opens his hand, he finds he's been checkmated. The chip is now blank and white checkers on both sides! The impact is so strong and the effect is so clean that when the spectator realizes what has happened, he can examine the disk to his heart's content and not discover the secret.

Manufactured in brass by European craftsmen. You receive Echec & Mat, packaged in a foam lined jewelry box with complete instructions.

Ball and Tube

The steel ball is larger than the inside of the brass tube,
yet it slowly and magically descends into the tube

The Ball and Tube was the first "real" magic trick I ever saw as a young boy. A friend of my father bought it at the 1939 World's Fair in New York. He kept it for years and eventually gave it to me. To this day, it remains one of my most cherished magical pieces.

The Ball and Tube effect is ageless and this version is the best I've ever seen. The tube is brass and the ball is a smooth steel sphere. The ball is so large there is no way it could even be pressed through the smaller tube. Yet, when held in the magician's hands, the ball slowly sinks into the center of the tube. It disappears from sight and just as slowly, reappears from within the tube. The ball and tube can both be passed for complete examination without fear of detection. This self contained, "locking" version has been precision crafted by the experts at Johnson Products.

I am sure you'll love the feel and smooth operation of this classic piece as much as I. You receive the Ball and Tube illusion, complete with instructions.
