SUPER CARD FRAME
The Super Card frame is an innovation in card frames.
This is a 7” x 5” frame edged in natural-finish wood. A
playing card can visibly appear in the centre. One
second the screen is clear, the next there is a playing
card there! Or the card can appear slowly in a most
spooky manner. The frame is clear then the card visibly
begins to fade in - little by little until the whole card is
complete! It looks like some sort of magical television!
Please note that at no time is the frame covered by
hand or cloth and nothing is removed from the
apparatus to cause the startling slow or fast
appearance. This is not a sand frame. This little-known
principle will thrill you. Truly recommended. NZ$35.00
A David Taylor idea. You state that one card, if singled
out from the rest, can be ‘embarrassed’ in the same
way that human beings can be. You show six identical
cards (clones). Anyone touches a card, no force. This
card is now ‘embarrassed’ at being singled out, and is
the only red-backed card in the set – the rest are blue
backs! No specially printed cards or rough & smooth,
everything examined. A miracle effect with just six
cards. Click here for a video demo.

WEIRDIE-BEARDIE
An old gag updated and routined by David Taylor. From
several jumbo cards, one is chosen, shuffled back and
after a few unsuccessful attempts to find it you quip:
“By the time I find your card, it’ll have whiskers on it!”
Yes, the chosen card is now sporting a long bushy
beard! You nearly didn’t find the card (a close shave!)
David has been performing this trick since the card had
a five o’clock shadow! With additional ideas. NZ$32.50
ACES TRUMPS
Originally sold by Supreme Magic, this is an imported
version. Five jumbo cards are fanned out – ace thru five
of hearts. One card is reversed & one is removed from
the fan. Suddenly the remaining cards magically turn
backs uppermost. When the full faces are shown you
are holding the four aces. This is one of our favourite
card tricks. Click here for a video demo.

CARD MAGIC – IMPACT TRIX

Show three cards on both sides, two duplicates and an
odd card. The odd card is reversed and instantly
changes to match the others. You explain what
happened then go on to repeat this little miracle and
again the odd card changes to a duplicate! Do it again if
you want, and finally hand out the cards for scrutiny.
One of our favorite demo items. Easy to do. Definitely
no sleight of hand. Let’s face it, after a while a lot of
card trick write-ups start to sound alike. This really is
different and good. We demo it whenever we can and
this invariably results in a sale. Easily learned and the
whole thing is possible by one simple move that you
will probably know already. Just in case you don’t this
is fully explained. “Reverso” is the ideal trick to carry in
your wallet. It won’t stay there long because you will
want to perform it on every possible occasion. Cards
and comprehensive instructions.

TAYLOR’S NEWSPAPER CAPER (David Taylor)
One snip does the trick! A card is freely chosen from
any deck. You fold a sheet of newspaper - and make
one snip with scissors. This is a great way to edit out
every lousy review of your shows! When opened, the
newspaper shows a giant replica of the chosen card.
There is no forcing involved and you can even borrow
the deck! You can begin by reading a few gag
advertisements from the paper and this can turn the
trick into a hilarious sequence. A snip at the price and a
great ‘edition’ to your act. Sold the world over. Will
thoroughly entertain the onlookers. Sold at a sensible
price. A good seller worldwide.
NZ$20.00
BLANKS FOR THE MEMORY (David Taylor)
David’s mind was far from blank when he created this
effect. From ten cards, one is chosen and remembered.
This card mysteriously rises up from the packet. You
explain that it rose because it has magically shed its ink
and become lighter than air. Now the spectator names
the card - then you are proven to be right when you
display the chosen card - now blank. For a final kicker,
so are all the other cards! Something a little different
so they are sure to remember it. The rising feature is
self-contained. Supplied with the set of cards and easyto-follow instructions.

CARD ‘N CONFETTI CAPER (David Taylor)
This packs more wallop than a steel boxing glove! An
empty glass is filled with confetti and covered with an
empty square cardboard tube. A chosen card (no force)
is sealed in an envelope. You rip the envelope open
and out flutters confetti. Uncover the glass and the
card is there. There’s more - re-cover the glass, then
uncover and suddenly it is full of confetti again! (Glass
can be examined). Where’s the card then? Ribbon
spread the pack and the card is back, as the only faceup card. NO replacement cards are ever needed.
Supplied totally complete.
NZ$49.50
IT’S ON YOUR BACK (David Taylor version)
David liked this old trick so much that he improved it. A
spectator assists and calls ‘stop’ as you riffle through
the pack. This card is peeked at. Only the helper knows
the value of the card. Now you go through the pack
showing the helper the faces. The peeked-at card is the
only one to have vanished. So you both look for it – and
eventually it is found hanging on the spectator’s back!
This method for getting the card onto the helper’s back
is brilliant. You’ll kick yourself for not having thought of
it yourself. Definitely recommended.
NZ$20.00
ABOUT-FACE (Murray Craig)
You’ve heard of the “officers’ mess”? This Sergeant is
in a mess! Three blue backed cards represent soldiers.
The Drill Sergeant barks commands and they respond
by magically turning over on the command: “ABOUTFACE”. Talk about a barmy army! The Sergeant is
removed but magically returns. Finally all the cards
change from blue to red backs - with a twist! Attenshun! The cards would even pass a medical. NZ$17.50
LITTLE WONDER - A small envelope is examined. You show the faces of four
cards and any spectator simply thinks of any one. Nothing is written down. Place the four
cards in the envelope. Now you remove three without showing the faces. One card is left
inside. Spectator names the card thought of…and this very card was left in the otherwise
empty envelope! Yes - the thought-of card is the only one to remain in the envelope!
Works every time to “knock them out”. Supplied complete.

FAB FOUR (David Taylor)
You’ll love this, “Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!” Nothing to do with
a certain pop group from the sixties but a simply FABulous trick using four cards. A spectator thinks of any
one, keeping it a secret. You remove one card from the
fan. WOW – it’s the mentally selected card! Another
spectator is shown the fan and names any card aloud.
This is the same card thought of by the first helper!
Then all four cards change to duplicates of the selected
card. This’ll knock their socks off!
NZ$18.00
COBRA CORD
A paper bag stands on your table and a card is chosen
from a pack. This is remembered & replaced, and the
pack is shuffled and placed inside the paper bag. You
introduce the cord and lower an end into the bag. Your
hands never enter the bag and yet, when the cord is
lifted out it is seen that the end has mysteriously
wrapped itself around the chosen card, hence the title
of the trick. Use your own cards.
$25.50
BURN-OUT (David Taylor)
Any card is chosen, remembered and returned to the
pack. You mime removing, reversing and replacing it. A
spectator passes a lighter, candle or match under the
pack to apply heat. Now for three smashing climaxes.
Run through the pack and only one card is face up
(well, you invisibly reversed it didn’t you?) It is the
chosen one. It is also shown to have a burn hole
through the centre. Finally it has been a little
“overcooked” - being the only card in the pack with a
red back! No sleights or forcing. The pack has only one
red backed card! This is top entertainment. NZ$19.50
JUMBO CONTRA-COLOUR CARDS (David Taylor)
Made in Jumbo Bicycle cards. You display two ‘blackpip’ cards (clubs or spades) on both sides together with
a short piece of red ribbon that is sandwiched between
the two cards. “Black cards, red ribbon!” you say. Now
the top card is turned over and the ribbon is now a
black one. Not only that – the two cards are now seen
to have red faces (hearts or diamonds). A novel and
interesting colour transfer.

PLINK
A penetration in which a plastic counter or chip passes
though a number of cards. The cards are placed across
the open mouth of a borrowed glass, totally blocking
this. A chip is shown and tapped on top of the cards.
Immediately the chip is heard (and seen) to fall into the
glass, having passed through the playing cards on
route. Looks really good. Simple method but still
clever enough to be a real fooler.
NZ$6.95
BAT-SPLAT (David Taylor)
A wooden bat in the shape of a Spade. Any card freely
named (no force) is located and initialed using a
removable adhesive spot. Helper pushes the card into
the pack and replaces pack in the case. Now you slap
the bat down on the closed case - SPLAT - turn the bat
over and the actual chosen and signed card is attached
to the underside. Comes complete with bat, cards and
full routine. Professional magic in every way.
NZ$55
MARKED CARDS - This is an inexpensive pack of back-readers complete with instructions
and Ideal for the beginner in magic to learn before investing in a dearer pack.
NZ$9.95
STRANGER IN THE MIDST (David Taylor)
Pack is placed down on table. Any spectator names any
card in the pack. You take up the pack and run through
the cards. Only one card in the pack has a red back.
This is the named card! Dynamic to say the least.
Works with any named card. Only one pack used. For a
climax the chosen card can change into an entirely
different card. All the impact of the Brainwave Deck
but much easier to work.
NZ$18.00
FOUR-SEEN (David Taylor)
State that you are holding four aces. Anyone freely
names a suit and you then show the cards. Three are
blank-faced (each is whiter than a Salt Lake City shirt)
and when the top card is turned over it is the named
card! So - If the Ace of Clubs is called, this is the face
down card, the others being blank. There is no colour
elimination or turning the cards end for end etc. Only
four cards used. David Taylor at his best.

JUMBO HI-RISE CARD (David Taylor)
A trouble-free and self-contained Rising Card, not
thread or finger operated. Show an envelope with cut
out front, and four jumbo cards (examined). One is
freely chosen (no force) and placed with the others
inside the envelope. In a few seconds the flap starts to
move - then opens fully as the chosen card slowly rises
up out of the envelope. The envelope may be torn up
or thrown to the audience!
NZ$28.50
SPOOKY CARDS
Two cards are shown front & back. Spectators may run
their fingertips over them to show they are normal.
Then one card spookily passes through the other. Again
cards are shown freely. That’s absolutely right - there
are definitely no holes through either card and yet one
card is seen to pass gently through the other - like a
ghost through a castle wall.
Standard size NZ$5.00, Larger (not jumbo) NZ$7.50
GHOST CARDS
Neat beginner item. A fan of five cards is shown and
any spectator is asked to mentally think of ANY THREE
cards. The cards are covered for a second with a paper
napkin or cloth. Two cards are taken out from under
the cloth. These are NOT chosen cards. Only now are
the chosen cards named. There are no other cards left.
THE THREE thought-of cards have vanished. An
incredibly clever idea. Works itself.
NZ$4.95
SAUCY HORSEY (adapted by David Taylor)
Easily carried and a sure-fire winner. A card is chosen
and remembered. You try to name it and fail. To aid
your ‘mental stimulation’ you show a colourful screenprinted board depicting part of the female anatomy.
After the initial laughs this card folds out and becomes
a long screen-printed horse and in its mouth is the card
... Oh no! They think they have caught you out but you
turn the tables at the end – the climax is too good to
give away here. The patter can be as ‘spicy’ as your
style dictates. Not offensive in any way – just good
clean fun. Comes with full routine and patter. Use your
own pack. Click for a video demo.

CARD UNDER GLASS (David Taylor’s version)
A clear plastic frame holds six cards with faces showing.
From six loose duplicates one is chosen. The frame is
covered and held by a spectator. The selected card
magically reverses itself in the pile. When the frame is
shown the duplicate of the very same card inside the
frame is now also reversed. The frame can be
examined. All cards are sealed inside since the edges of
the frame are tape-bound on all sides.
NZ$45.00
A Taylor notion. Drop a large envelope on the table. Six
miniature cards are shown face down. Any one is
freely selected (no force). A corner is clipped for later
identification and the card is cut in half diagonally. The
envelope is opened and in it is one jumbo card, also cut
in half diagonally. What a coincidence - the two cards
match. But wait! They suspect that all the miniature
cards are the same - they are, but of an entirely
different card to the one selected. Received an
excellent review in ‘Abracadabra’ magazine. NZ$17.50
HYPNOTISED CARDS
A golden oldie we love. Spread a number of cards face
down on the table. Place your flat palm over the cards
and when your hand is lifted, all the cards remain
adhering to the palm as though glued there. Do it in
short sleeves. Cards will fall free on command. No
threads, wax, wires, magnets, sticky stuff, attachments
or pulls. How then? Supplied ready to work. Truly a
good visual trick and a clever method.

NU-WAY OUT OF THIS WORLD
The world’s most dynamic card trick just got better!
Without seeing the faces of the cards, a spectator

Features: NO pre-setting the pack, use a borrowed
pack. Shuffle as much as you want. Spectator can hold
the cards in their hands as they magically separate the
colours! Full instructions only sent. Use any pack. Learn

EUREKA
Uses two packs, a red back and a blue. A spectator
chooses one (no force) and while you look away the
helper cuts the pack several times and pockets the top
three cards. Now you turn back, take the pack you
were left with and also remove three cards. Despite
the odds, the cards match. Yes, you have each removed
the same three cards! No faked decks. You never ask
the helper any questions. No forcing of either pack –
it’s self-working. Complete with cards.
NZ$22.00
MIRACLE MELT-THRU
Uses two blank-faced cards and an ordinary one. The
ordinary unprepared card visibly penetrates up
through the bottom blank one to position itself
between two blank-faced cards. This is destined to
become a classic in simplicity of method achieving a
maximum of impact. You will never want to be without
it in your wallet. Do it in front of a mirror and you will
not believe it. No sleights used.
NZ$6.00
U-DO-AS-I-DO
This is the funniest card trick for a long time. You hold
five cards and a spectator holds five, all faces up. The
helper duplicates every move you make, but despite
this your cards are all face up at the end, whereas the
helper always has ONE card face down in the set. The
more it is repeated the funnier it gets. This is a real
winner. Any repetition in a trick causes laughs so this is
a real winner. This works itself – no sleights. NZ$15.00
AUTOMATI-FORCE
Now you can force a card automatically. That’s right!
Simply add this “special something” to your own
Bicycle deck and you are set to force a card
automatically. No sleights & nothing to learn. A surefire force of a card with no fear of failure. Something
every magician should have. Try this once and you will
use it every time you need to force a card.

TWO-CARD ZAPPER (David Taylor) - A nice little card trick that is sure to please. In effect,
two cards are shown face to face. A simple change takes place (which is explained to the
onlookers) – but wait a bit – one of the cards changes to a completely different one and for
a climax both cards become duplicates!

CARD BETWEEN PLASTIC PLATES
A selected card vanishes and reappears sandwiched in
between two sheets of clear plastic that are rubberbanded together. A variation is that the card reappears
as a miniature one, and then GROWS to a standardsized one. No stand is used in this version – it’s all at
the fingertips. Comes with sheets, bands, etc. & THREE
individual presentations. Exciting apparatus that makes
for exciting magic. An accepted classic.
NZ$22.00
HOLE IN ONE (David Taylor)
Two cards – a black pip and a red pip. The black one
has a hole through the centre - a spectator can feel it.
The red card has no hole. Hold a card in each hand and
– ZIP! Now the hole is in the centre of the RED card.
The BLACK one has “healed up” and the spectator may
run their fingertips over it. Drop the RED card the
helper’s hand to examine. No switches, sleights or
moves. Comes with additional ideas.

CONFOOZING CARD
A jumbo card is shown to one half of your audience.
The same card is now shown to the other half of the
audience to also remember. Card is then placed in an
envelope with a cut out front. When asked to call out
the name of the card in unison, each half of the
audience NAMES A DIFFERENT CARD! Just what IS the
card, well – when removed it is a different card
altogether. Great audience participation.

MIRACLE CARD ACT
This is one of the BEST card tricks ever. A blue-backed
pack is shown & placed down. Now a spectator names
ANY card. No force. You show a red-backed pack and
spectators assist in looking through the pack for the
named card. The freely named card is simply not there.
Take up the blue-backed pack and in it is the chosen
missing card. Yes it has a RED back. All other backs are
blue. Self-working, no sleights.

ACROBATIC CARDS
From a packet of playing cards, half are placed in a pile
on the table alternating face up and face down. The
remaining cards in your hands are shown to be all face
down. Quicker than a wink, the pile on the table all
turn face down and the pile in your hands now
alternate face up, face down, face up, face down etc.
This is a magical and visual delight. Click here for a
video demo. This is delightfully simple.

PIG IN THE MIDDLE
Three cards are shown. The top and bottom cards are
duplicates while the one in the middle is an odd card or
“pig in the middle”. “This middle card has a tendency
to do an about-face,” you say. The cards are squared
and turned face down. When spread again, sure
enough, the middle card has turned and it is now face
up between the other two. The full faces of all three
cards are shown, as well as the backs. Self-working.
Standard
NZ$5.95 or Larger cards NZ$7.50
HAUNTED DECK (Beginner version)
This is still a popular trick with all age groups. From a
fanned deck, three spectators each choose any card
(no forcing) and each card is remembered then slipped
back into the squared deck. Now, the deck held on
your flat palm, suddenly takes on a life of its own,
moving forward and back, sideways and back etc. until
three cards are seen to be protruding from the deck.
These are the actual chosen cards.
NZ$10.00
EASY RISER (David Taylor)
ANY named card is removed from the pack and
verified. Replaced, you command this card to reverse
itself in the pack. Using no threads or elastics the
chosen card rises up from the case and, sure enough, it
has its back towards the audience. Replaced and
commanded to turn around, this time it rises up
showing its face. The card is replaced in the centre of
the deck. No sleights or moves.

case has dissolved away. This is a right little eyepopper. Special case supplied – use your own matching

This is a David Taylor notion. A card is chosen and you

miniature card is shown both sides. The change is selfcontained with nothing taken away. This is a cute and
inexpensive little trick. We supply the little gimmick.

fifth card along and there is the chosen card! NZ$6.00

SKULL OF SOLOMON
Solly hangs on a cord. From a set of unprepared cards
one is freely chosen. Held over the face down cards
one at a time, ol’ Solly starts a circular motion when
held over one card only – the selected one. He can
locate a ‘dead’ name from amongst living ones and in a
final routine he appears to have selected the wrong
card – but he proves to be right in the end. You get the
skull, the set of cards, and the routines.

MAGIC JUMBO CARDS
Neat beginner item. Three jumbo-size cards are shown
and the one in the middle is remembered. This centre
card is slid out and dropped onto the table face down.
A spectator may even place their finger on the card so
that you cannot tamper with it. Despite this it changes
to an entirely different card altogether. The size of the
cards makes this an interesting trick straight away, and
absolutely no skill is required.

SQUEEZE (David Taylor)
This is one of David’s cutest ideas. Add this gaff to your
red-backed Bicycle pack & you’ll have a sure fire “laugh
every time” gag for your adult show. A chosen card will
be located by feel alone, you state. What transpires is
too good to give away here, sufficient to say that their
chosen card turns into a pin up one of the same value –
the only pin up in the pack. A great laugh climax & in
no way offensive.

HOW ABOUT A DRINK (Joe Stuthard)
A bar favourite. Four cards are placed face down on the
table. Any spectator chooses any one of them. Your
cards carry the messages: HOW ABOUT A DRINK? NOT
A BAD IDEA & WHO PAYS? Spectator turns the chosen
card and it reads: I DO. So you win a drink every time.
This is ideal for the wallet. The effect far outweighs the
method used and the overall end result is everything.
Cards & instructions.

VANISHING DECK
The case is opened and one card removed for the
spectator to remember. Card is replaced in case and
the deck is then placed inside the black holder. You
state that the remembered card will disappear but
both case and cards vanish leaving the open-fronted
holder totally empty. Strongly made in plastic, not
cardboard as some are. Now a modern classic vanish
and very highly recommended.

DISSOLVING CARD TRICK
Neat beginner item. Any card from any pack is covered
with a handkerchief and held over a glass of water.
Spectator may push the card into the glass. On
removing the handkerchief, the water is totally clear
and it seems that the card must have magically
dissolved away into nothing. Special gimmick supplied
and may be used over and over. A great addition to
your magic collection.

clip. This is thrown to a spectator and it is found that

complete card. You get the cut-up card pieces, clip,
“special something” and the full instructions, all in an

by a third spectator. NOTHING IS WRITTEN - the cards
are merely thought of. The second set of ten cards is
sealed in an envelope. Now two cards magically pass
from the first set to the second set. And get this – the
only cards to pass over are the thought-of ones.
Something special.

Ideal beginner item. Two cards are shown, one face up,

CARD TO CASH
Neat beginner item. This is a real cutie. You display a
playing card and with a pass of the hand it changes into
a note that you can display on both sides. Say that you

will always keep your cash (the change takes place).
This is one of those quick, slick changes that impress
your audience so. Self-contained - nothing is taken

STRIP TEASE CARD TRICK
A spectator remembers the middle card of a fan of
three (it even has a different-coloured back) and is
asked to ‘keep it on his mind’. When shown again, the
card has changed into a drawing of a pin-up girl – “so
this is what’s on your mind” you quip. Sure to get a
laugh every time and is in no way offensive. Ordinary
card size. It will always get an instant laugh whenever
performed. Don’t be put off by the low price. NZ$2.95
CRAZY CARD TRICK
Three cards are shown and a spectator remembers the
middle one. They are placed face down on the table.
The two end cards are turned face up and shown. You
ask what the middle card was. The spectator turns this
card and it has completely changed to a different card.
We supply a blank faced card so you can write a
message like: SORRY, or BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME or
whatever. All cards examined. Easy to do.

BOOMERANG CARD - Casually shuffling an unprepared deck of cards. You suddenly flick a
card off the top of the deck, it spins out and around your body, only to be caught by you,
or it can land back on the deck! Looks incredible. No skill needed, just minimal practice. It
spins out then lands again just like a boomerang!

BALANCING CARD TRICK
Neat beginner item. A card (which can be removed
from a pack) magically stands upright on a table on its
edge. For a climax you stand a glass of water on the top
edge and it will remain balanced there. We also supply
a routine in which the card is then handed out for
thorough examination. Neatly packed item. Gives the
appearance of great skill yet absolutely none is needed.
In attractively illustrated envelope.
