Mental Effects 

TeleThought Wallet - Small $59

by Chris Kenworthey

  

TeleThought Wallet is one of the most diabolical utility devices in magic. Its potential is limitless.

As they say "the sky is the limit," here. Virtually any "mind-reading effect" can be performed with the "TeleThought Wallet." Design duplication, book tests, telepath experiments can now be presented under immaculate test conditions. Imagine using the "TeleThought Wallet" for preshow work! Or combining it with a "Brainwave Deck," "Invisible Pack," or "Precognition Deck." There is at least one other wallet currently on the magic market, which could vastly enhance its potential and ingenuity if it employed the same material presently utilized in the "TeleThought Wallet." Something to think about.

Wallet Dimension Approximately 4 1/4" x 2 3/4" (10cm x 7cm)
 

 

New Spike $210

A complete sellout at Blackpool

 

Watch the Video

Four inches of cold, hard steel ground to a point, and rising vertically from a solid wooden base.
Will you drive your open palm down onto it with force? Blindfolded? Take the chance, prove yourself. A life without pain has no meaning. Give your life meaning.

Effect

Three unmarked wooden blocks are displayed and one four inch steel spike. The performer can have his back turned, be blindfolded, or even leave the room while the spectator places the spike into one block (free choice). The spectator is then instructed to cover all the wooden blocks with Styrofoam cups. The performer walks over to the three cups and instantly smashes his hand on two, leaving the cup with the spike underneath untouched! An incredible feat of mentalism!

Ideal for stage, cabaret, cruises, and other larger venues, this hand-crafted beauty is a versatile magic prop that can be played for comedy or high drama! Whichever way you choose, you will leave your audiences spellbound!

Please note that there are no outer markings and the system used is sure-fire and no-fail 110% safe! Everything can be examined before, during and after.

"I like both the compactness of the apparatus and the simplicity and dependability of the method. It works like a charm and with a modicum of care and caution by the performer, ending up with a spike through the hand should not occur. But a word of caution, like any other dangerous stunt (remember me, I'm the guy with the three pistols) you must not be careless or suffer from brain cramps. The method is excellent but that does not mean accidents can't happen if you allow your mind to wander when it should be focused on the performance. If you're a professional, SPIKE is definitely recommended."
- Larry Becker

Murphy's Magic Supplies, Inc. is not liable for any misuse and any injury that may incur due to carelessness on the part of the performer and will not sell it to anyone under the age of 18.

Comes complete with 3 wooden bases, spike, velvet bag and DVD. Includes BONUS special gimmick so you can start on this today.

 

new PSI Sharpie 2   $250

 

Psi Sharpie 2

Picture this: you have just performed a killer routine where you had the spectator sign a trick with your Sharpie. Now, to further drop their jaws, you set the Sharpie down and use your amazing mental powers to make it start spinning freely on the table- no strings or any conceivable gaff. Your audience walks away eerily impressed and dumbfounded at your amazing ability. Are you ready to cash in on your $1,000,000 from the James Randi Educational Foundation, or have you just had the foresight to pick up one of the new PSI Sharpie illusions from Yves Doumergue? We suspect the latter

The possibilities are endless- do a "Spin the Sharpie" game to point to people or objects, predict the "hour" of an event by using laying the Sharpie on a clock patterned surface...you have probably thought of something even better while reading this ad!

There are no strings, threads, magnets, switches, and absolutely nothing attached to the performer's body at any point in time. All the "magic" is completely self-contained within the Psi-Sharpie, and it may be examined at any time!

With your hidden, wireless remote control, the power of Psi-Sharpie is completely at your command; when you push the button it moves, if you stop, it stops! This Quality device comes complete with a 12-month manufacturer's warranty! Don't be fooled by imitations- ask for the Psi-Sharpie by name.

 

Third Degree Burn $65

   

Third Degree Burn is the most mysterious, no force, impossible and versatile blister effect you've ever done. Imagine flipping-out a spectator when a blister of any card they name appears on your finger and thumb!

It's The Invisible Deck without the cards—and with more HEAT!

Effect

You approach a group of people, and ask someone to think of a card, and then name it aloud. It can be any card they wish. There is no force. The subject is asked to truly visualize the card in their head-to burn this into their mind, you give them a lighter (or just borrow theirs). After igniting the lighter, they are asked to visualize their card in the dancing flame. You briefly thrust your fingers into the flame, wincing with pain. For the jaw-dropping climax, you slowly turn your fingers around, to reveal the skin on your thumb and finger is now blistered in the shape of their freely-chosen card! You've just given' em the third degree!

Some key points to remember:
 

bullet

No deck of cards required.

bullet

No forcing; works with any card named.

bullet

Can be carried with you at all times, fits in your pocket, and is always ready to go.

bullet

No reset (again, it is ALWAYS ready to go)!

bullet

Harmless—but it does look dangerous!

Comes complete and ready to go with the professional custom gimmick (made to last a lifetime), instructional DVD, detailed manuscript, full routine, and bonus effects (including ideas that DO NOT require the use of fire!).

 

Perfect Bend Spoon $25

Perfect Bend Fork    $30

                          

Spoon  

Fork     

This has to be the most incredible metal bending we've ever seen! And it looks just like it reads! The performer picks up a spoon on the table, holds it at his fingertips, and proceeds to concentrate. Slowly, eerily, and methodically, the bowl of the spoon begins to bend until it is at a 90 degree angle. So far, nothing original, until you TAKE THAT VERY SAME SPOON and display it in its bent position, dropping it on the table.  The best part are the conditions:

No special set-up involved
No chemicals
Completely self-contained
The gimmick is nearly invisible
Can be performed completely surrounded
Can be instantly repeated with no reset involved

You can choose whether the body of the spoon or the bowl of the spoon bends!

 
 

Illuminati by Becker & Earle $50

                   


Your Participant selects one of three authentic hotel room key cards and secretly writes an imaginary room number on the back.

He holds that card number-side-down and slides it between the remaining two key cards. The three stacked cards are slowly and openly shown top and bottom, front and back.

There is no doubt that all three hotel key cards are completely opaque and that the room number is totally hidden from view.

Yet you can reveal the secret information almost instantly!

No impressions or copies
Nothing added or taken away
Instant Reset
No Mess
Includes both printed and DVD video instructions

Kenton's Little Book of Wonders by Kenton Knepper $20

  

About 60 pages packed with original Kenton material never published before. Here are some of Kenton's cherished secrets such as his work with The Hoy Deck which sent mentalists reeling recently. This 5 1/2 X 11 inch booklet has more truly creative and honestly practical effects than most books three times its size.

EVERYTHING you enjoy can be found here. Close-up, mentalism, stand-up, weird magic. Plots never considered previously, and wild takes on a few forgotten classics. Here is a taste:

Pop popcorn in your hand - Spectators HEAR it actually popping!

Learn of Kenton's O.K. "Okito" box which uses hinged lids and mini-mint boxes. Yes, HINGED on lids as an Okito Box. This will create a new revolution in the Okito Box tradition.

Don't just melt a spoon - squish the bowl like it were putty. Is it putty? No! The bowl while seemingly molten instantly becomes solid again and the hands are seen empty. NOT like anything you have seen before. This is different.

Props are taken from a large Altoid type box, as the performer displays his unusual abilities. BUT, the box instantly seals itself shut with tape, postage stamps and more in a split second and in full view. The tape must be removed before the box can be opened to once again show all the props inside (including a borrowed item). This is impossible to describe and weird to experience!

A key chain with a light is held over a spectator's hand. The spectator attempts to light it with her mind. That never happens. But what does happen will surprise you and your spectator for some time to come.

There is MORE in this little booklet to be sure. Any one of these effects could have been marketed on their own, as many are doing with manuscripts these days. But Kenton, as he begins to wind down his writing for performers, wanted to cram as much as he could into one little booklet. That he has certainly accomplished.

Several secret groups were privy to small portions of this work last year. Each commented on how these methods were going to change their own methods, effects and presentations. Each group noted that at least several likely instant-classics were contained in this booklet.

This is truly a Little Book of Wonder which you can't afford to miss, and at a special price to top it all off.

PSI-CON RUSE $15 by Phil Goldstein
 
    
 
An Approach to Dr. Jaks' classic "Supersonic" (without the stand).
Effect: A spectator is asked to freely shuffle a deck of cards. The mentalist displays a book on divination, explaining that he has been studying Cartomancy-the ancient system of telling fortunes with playing cards.

An envelope is then given to the participant to hold and the performer says, "Even though we've never met before, inside this envelope is a Cartomantic reading that I've prepared just for you. Let's see if the system works!"

The top five cards of the shuffled pack are taken and displayed by being inserted into the edge of the book. The spectator is told to choose any of the five cards. The selected card is, for example, the four of clubs. The four unchosen cards are shown to be all different. When the fortune message is removed from the envelope, it reads:

"You have a compassionate nature and strong leadership potential. Your sense of humor is admired by others. Your lucky card is the four of clubs!"

Includes detailed, 8-page booklet written by Phil Goldstein and fully-illustrated by Tony Dunn and the five specially-printed cards on Bicycle stock that make this effect possible.
