ACID MADNESS -

Three fantastic effects with the Russian Roulette theme. With acid, rodent control pellets, poisonous flaming liquid, - plus an extra routine. MENTALISM AT ITS BEST. A GREAT CLOSER .

EFFECT # 1 = A metal key on a cord is shown and examined and placed into a small jar. "In a few minutes you will see the effect of that acid on the key if I succeed, OR ON ME, should I fail in this experiment." Five vials with liquid are on display. One, says the Mentalist, contains deadly acid while the others contain regular tap water. Mentalist turns away and the vials are mixed up by a spectator. Four of the vials are called for individually by the Mentalist who drinks the liquid in each. A few drops of the liquid of the last vial is dropped on the key and it begins to disintegrate right before the spectators eyes. The other routines (one with a borrowed coin, one with flaming poisonous liquid, one with Rodent Control Pellets, and OUCH, one with a sharp spike) are just as amazing. Comes with stands for the various routines, glass vials, a glass jar, key, tweezers, eye dropper,etc.
No chemicals supplied. - $85.00

(Based on the McCombical Deck by Billy McComb) A prediction card is shown and you state that if the prediction turns out wrong you will give everything in your wallet to the assisting spectator. The prediction card is placed in view and you then show some cards to the rest of the audience. THE CARDS ARE ALL THE SAME (matches of the prediction card) You smile and say "I never fail." This will evoke laughter. The unsuspecting spectator is then told to select one of the cards and to name it aloud. He names an entirely different card. It will look like you just goofed, but when the prediction card is turned over IT MATCHES THE CARD SELECTED.Great close up, walk around item. Can be examined. Excellent comedy.

A weird demonstration of psychic phenomena where the performer travels into the Astral plane. " For centuries, many psychics have claimed that it is possible to separate the 'astral' body from the physical body at will. Some psychics maintain they can not only move this energy body but also travel it in." You offer a demonstration where while out of the room, or stage, you will astrally return. You display five large ESP cards and place them into individual envelopes. A packet of regular playing cards are also shown and the spectator selects one of the cards. These cards are also. placed into an envelope and handed to the spectator for safe keeping. You tell spectator that you will step off stage or out of the room and go into a self induced trance While you are in the 'trance' the spectator is to select one of the envelopes with the ESP symbol and to place it aside. When you return to the stage or room you immediately name the selected ESP sign and open the envelope to show all that you are correct. Then, to prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that you indeed astrally returned to the scene prior to your physical return, you ask the spectator for the envelope with the playing cards in his possession. You open the envelope, remove the cards and spread them out. The selected card is missing from the group. You reach into your pocket and retrieve the card.

A method of doing Astrological readings and character analysis without memorization. You remove a piece of paper from an envelope, hand the envelope; to a lady and look her straight in the eye. "Madam, we have never met, have we? Still, I may know more about you than you know about yourself." You write something on the piece of paper, fold it and hand it to the lady to place in the envelope. You then show her a set of of the twelve Astrological signs and have her remove her birth sign. That card is also placed in the envelope. You can do some cold reading here if you wish or just reach into the envelope and remove the paper and read it. It contains information relative to the spectator's personality and NAMES HER BIRTH SIGN. With special cards. -

" Have you ever met a stranger and felt an instant liking, a sort of click? Have you ever been introduced to someone and felt an immediate antipathy for no reason? We call this click or clunk chemistry or biological compatibility; or incompatibility. These irrational; reactions are very real and have a very real basis. Emotions, states of mind, are reflected in the electrical activity of the brain. This is because the brain of one person can impose its rhythm on the brain of another. It's no more or less than spontaneous telepathy.."
A set of five cards are shown displayed on a stand. A duplicate set is shown, mixed up and held out with backs to audience and assisting spectator. You tell spectator that you will attempt to influence him/her to match the cards in your hand to the cards on the stand. You hold out one card and have the spectator tell you what card he/she thinks it matches on the stand. You place the card (with back out) over the card indicated. This is repeated with the rest of the cards. After all the cards are on the stand the reversed cards are turned over to show that each placed card matches the card underneath it on the stand. -

BOOKMARK (The)
"Sir." begins the mentalist, " If I were to ask you to look at a word in this page of this book you would look over the entire page looking for a word to use. While your conscious mind decided on a word your subconscious mind would be absorbing the entire contents of the page even though you may not be aware of it. Then if I tried to read your mind to discern the chosen word your subconscious would raise havoc with my mind with all the words it picked up from the entire page. To eliminate the mind confusion I have developed a way for you and your subconscious mind to focus on just a few words. Note that I have cut out a hole in the center of this bookmaker. If I open up this book to a random page and place the book marker on the page and move it around the page you can see different words through the hole depending on the location of the bookmaker. Let's do this completely by chance and at random. Please take the bookmaker and while I hold the book closed insert it anywhere into the book. Good!. Now move the bookmaker like this, up and down and sideways on the page to any location of your choice. You want it right there. OK! I'll turn away and open the book at the pages where the bookmaker is and I want you to note the words that show inside the hole, remember them and please concentrate on them."
An old principle in a new concept. This mechanical bookmaker looks like a regular commercial marker can be purchased in book stores. It can be shown on both sides. Force words can be easily changed to match any book of your choice.
Laminated to last a life time. Comes complete with a paper back book.

Using only a piece of paper to write the predictions and for spectator's to record their thoughts, you will quickly reveal each secret with ease. You write your first impression and fold down the top of the paper to conceal what you wrote. The spectator logs his thought below. Two other thoughts by two other spectators follow in similar fashion. At the end the paper is torn in three pieces and one handed to each spectator so they may verify that each of your predictions is correct. Mental Epic effect with a piece of paper.

Jim Rainho's SUPERB BOOK TEST - - - - -

Another Book Test? well Yeah, but it's been around for some time and it doesn't even have any off springs so it doesn't parent anything. I came up with this Test because I wanted one that was DIRECT without any forcing of books, or pages or any PUMPING. Here is the effect: A book is shown and the pages riffled to show that they are all different. A page is ripped out of the book and torn into eight pieces by a spectator. A torn piece is selected by a second spectator who reads the contents (on both sides) to himself. IMMEDIATELY the Mentalist reveals the contents of both side of the piece of page. THIS IS THE FIRST ROUTINE.

THE SECOND ROUTINE IS EVEN BETTER!
A book is tossed out to be inspected. The spectator rips out a page and tears in into eight pieces. One piece is selected and the contents are revealed as described above. ONCE BOOK IS TOSSED OUT THE MENTALIST NEVER TOUCHES IT AGAIN. - THIS IS FAST - THIS IS DIRECT - THIS IS MENTALISM AS IT SHOULD BE PERFORMED. - ONLY - $25.00

You show three cards with an ESP symbol on each card and tell a spectator to mentally concentrate on one of the symbols. You turn to make your prediction then face the spectator and have him name his selection. You then show that you predicted it correctly.

Also available in Playing Card format.

VIDEO - - - originated by Aladdin, newly routined by Jim Rainho - - -

Mentalism At Its best! - - - - - A spectator mentally transmits a secretly thought ESP Symbol to the Mentalist who concentrates for a few seconds then places a ESP Symbol card, back outward, on a stand. Spectator then names his symbol and a second card with the named symbol is placed, face forward, on the stand beside the first card. The Mentalist then places a third symbol card, back outward, on the stand and attempts to transmit that symbol to a second spectator. The second spectator names a symbol he feels he is receiving and a fourth card with the named symbol is placed on the stand. The stand is rotated to show the identity of the reversed card. - THE ARE PERFECT MATCHES OF THE OTHER CARDS.
This is exactly the same effect that is on the market costing several hundred dollars. We supply the original Aladdin routine along with Jim Rainho's MASTER ROUTINE where the reversed cards are turned around and the faces of all four cards are shown together. This will blow the minds of the informed who are expecting the old ULTISSIMO method.....................Complete with cards and stand .Only, - $30.00

VOODOO - The ancient practice of magic rites prevalent in the West Indies, particularly Haiti and in the Southern United States. Originally stemming from ophiolatry transmitted from African Ashanti cults, voodoo is characterized by erotic and symbolic dance rhythms. Occult chants, sacrifices of goats and chickens are other features of voodoo rituals. As late as the first decades of this century it involved ophiolatry, human sacrifice, and anthropophagism. A WEIRD SIMULATION OF A VOODOO RITE THAT LEAVES PEOPLE SPELLBOUND. The lights are dimmed and a candle burns on the table as you demonstrate the effects of Voodoo curses using two decks of cards. You demonstrate death. by fire and a deadly potion.
