The magician tells a story about the time he found himself playing poker with three very unusual characters, a counterfeiter, a card cheat and a con artist.

   The game was only played with a deck of five cards. The only way you could play was to cheat.

   As the magician tells the story the hands continue to get progressively bigger as he continues to only show five cards even though he is discarding handfuls at a time they continue to appear out of nowhere.

  The routine finishes with an appropriate climax sure to entertain the poker lover in all of us!

Comes complete with handmade Bicycle playing cards and instructional DVD including a surprise knockout finish they will never see coming and is very easy to do! There is very little sleight of hand; the cards do most of the work for you.

At the edge of industry, therein lies Steampunk.
Ripped from the pages of science fiction, the gears are turning, the steam is pumping, and the playing cards were finally born. It wasn't easy. The paper used on these tuck cases did NOT exist.
The bronze paper was made from scratch in order to perfectly print the ink that covers its surface in 19th century Victorian machinery.
The boldly stamped, debossed elements cast shadows of illusion and create a perspective of depth and weight. The vents on top of the box invite you to take a look inside.
Opening the box, you will discover 52 pieces of machinery. The depth of the playing cards is fittingly unreal.
So unreal, it beckons you to stare at it's seemingly infinite array of detail. Designed by Alex Beltechi and constructed of 12 million 3D polygons. The Jokers are morphed into jet turbines of steel. The Ace of Spades is a window of opportunity to witness the gears of intricate beauty and complexity.

Own a piece of science fiction. Where vintage industry meets reality.

Getting the entire audience involved in your show has never been easier.

    The magician shows 5 cards that spell out the word CARDS, then some of the cards are tossed away only to have more reappear to show the word TRICKS!

   Then more of the cards are tossed away only to have more reappear to show the word MAGIC!

   Finally some more cards are tossed away only to have more appear to show the word CLAP!

   Your audience will be shaking their heads in disbelief and have a great time with every new revelation!

PANIC by Aaron Fisher

They came. They saw. They VANISHED!

Effect: The four Kings are shown and placed into your back pocket. The remainder of the deck is spread cleanly, then it happens. The deck instantly vanishes in your hands -- leaving only four cards. The cards are shown to be the Kings.

And where's the rest of the pack? In your back pocket. No sleights. No funny moves. Panic works 100% of the time!

PANIC makes a stunning opener, amazing middle or a powerhouse closer. It instantly resets and is completly examinable and commercial.

After years off the market, the best vanishing deck routine in history is back, now available in either RED or BLUE backs. And there's more. Watch Aaron’s new 45 minute DVD video training online—directed by Wayne Houchin.

Not many magic tricks can be called a "Timeless Classic" but I'm pretty sure that as long as playing cards are still being used by society, the Rising Card illusion will remain in that category.
     The effect is straight forward and simple: a card or cards are chosen and returned to the deck, one at a time the card(s) rise from the deck unaided by the magician. In a glass, on the table or even in the spectator's hands, the card rises inexplicably and erily from the deck. The card can immediately be plucked from the deck for inspection.

Screwed deck.  Screw the deck together and then produce the cards.

Four Aces turn face up, then down with a magic spin.

  In a surprise finish, all of the aces have different colored backs!
