I am not a fan of card tricks normally , but it should show me that with a good story a card trick is very entertaining.... thank you

Love it, tricks with different cards make such a difference than using standard playing cards. Thanks for sharing

Try the 'soldiers deck of cards" a tru "story" about a soldier in Chapel that was accused of playing cards in Church- at his trial, he went on to prove many cards represented many things in the Bible - plus Almanac- it was also his prayer book etc- I've used it many time by printing the story behind each(gient )card - its good for showing one NOT to be judgemental.

This effect is Bob Neale's "Kind and Gentle Stranger", found in his book "Life, Death, and Other Card Tricks." And yes, it was originally done with regular cards as descibed in the book. Not sure why David hasn't mentioned this already....


Thank you for the information. I've only found used copies of this book for sale online - and at a hefty ($179) price.

Good storytelling can project a standard effect into something more memorable. You know you have done well, when someone sees you over a year later and remembers you from that one effect you performed with a high impact story.

I've always loved this Robert E. Neale's routine, and it's even better when presented with tarot cards.
