MENTALISM
School Daze is predominately a two-phase mentalism or mental magic effect for close-up performances that uses the game of marbles as the patter justification. For those who prefer visual magic, a few bonus routines have been included for you to enjoy.
Phase One: The performer pulls a small bag out of his pocket and pours t he contents into his hand. Addressing the spectators, the performer tells them the story behind how he came into possession of the m and proceeds to allow one of the marbles to be chosen by a member of the crowd. He then instructs another to join in and tells them to decide among themselves who will hold onto t he marble, but to not tell him. He turns around, and when they are ready, he returns and after a few questions, accurately tells them who has the marble.
Phase Two: This event is repeated, but this time the performer tells the spectators not only who has the marble and what hand it is in, but does so without asking any questions whatsoever.
Comes complete with a black velvet draw-string bag, five differently colored cat's eye marbles (plus one duplicate), a steely and instructions.

Retro-Sight is two different effects in one! One of the most novel effects you will see. Something totally unique...combined with a new principle in MENTALISM that will delight even seasoned pros. This is release five in Devin Knight's Psychic Sight Series. Two effects in one!
MIRRORED THOUGHT: The first effect is one that Devin has used to fool well informed mentalists in the past. Two spectators are brought on stage. Neither is a stooge nor has there been any pre-show work.
The first spectator freely selects a word from the stack of word cards. There is no force of any kind and the mentalist really does not know the word selected. The first person is told to think of his word. Performer then passes the cards one at time in front of a mirror while he looks away. He says that a psychic ability known as "Retro-sight" sometimes allows a person to know what is not known by viewing words printed in reverse in the mirror. He asks the second person to look into the mirror and see if he gets any psychic flashes regarding the thought of word. Believe it or not the second person correctly names the selected word and is puzzled as to how he knew it. Magician doesn't whisper to or secretly cue the person. The magician really doesn't know the thought of word until the second person reveals it. Can instantly be repeated with a different word.
One of the most ingenious things you will ever see and will fool any of your magic buddies who don't know the secret. Nothing like this has ever been done before using this method.
DIMENSIONAL TRANSPOSITION: In the second effect the magician is able to cause word cards to transpose with those inside a mirrored dimension. Magician introduces a set of word cards from the well known game Word Chase. He shows the cards freely front and back, nothing but a set of cards with a different word on each. Performer claims that another dimension exists inside any mirror. To prove this he holds the cards one at a time in front of the mirror to show how the mirror reflects the printed word on the card as a mirrored image. He says he will make the word cards in his hand change places with the ones in the mirror.
Suddenly all the cards in the mirror appear normal and can be read. For a kicker the magician shows all the cards in his hand are now printed in reverse mirror images. He then repeats the effect using his business card, suddenly the card reflected in the mirror becomes normal and can be read. The card left in his hand is now printed in reverse and is left with the spectator as a conversation piece. Even includes a method that allows you to do this with a borrowed business card.
No short or long cards, no rough or smooth, no double faced word cards, no sticky stuff on the cards, and the packet of cards is not switched.
The effect comes complete with set of word cards from the game Word Chase, vinyl holder for cards and complete directions detailing every nuance.

Since the time of Robert-Houdin, the blindfold act has been one of magic and mentalism’s most astounding feats – and for good reason. The apparent ability to see without the use of the eyes never fails to astonish an intelligent audience. However, the degree of astonishment is always directly proportional to the seeming
impossibility of the conditions.
Long unavailable, Richard Osterlind’s Stainless Steel Blindfold revolutionized blindfold work when it was first introduced as it offered the magic and mentalism communities an almost perfect method for apparent Sightless Vision. This blindfold was a quantum leap over previous blindfold methods. Though it was able to stand up to rigorous examination by spectators who could find no clue to its diabolical secret, it still afforded the performer with almost full vision instantly.
Now available again at long last, Richard Osterlind’s Stainless Steel Blindfold is ready to give another generation of performers an extra dimension to their acts – the apparent ability to see without the use of their eyes. The blindfold is laser cut from premium stainless steel that will last a lifetime. What’s more, a brand new book by Osterlind is included that contains the full workings of the blindfold plus revolutionary ideas, some of which have never before been disclosed.
Throw away your tape, scarves and chintzy sleep masks. The future of blindfold work is here…again!
