I've had these laying around for years, no idea what it is - jumbo cards, 2x 6's and 2 x jacks. It's probably a standard packet trick I picked up years and years ago..

Any suggestions?


Tks!

I don't know what the specific effect might have been but, if you have Apocalypse, check out Richard Vollmer's Poor Man's Monte. This is a stunner of a packet effect that could EASILY be adapted to jumbo cards. Smile

Greetings DCB;
That probably is Joe Riding's "The Only Three Card Trick in The World Using Four Cards"
It was marketed by Ken Brooke back in the days and is an outstanding routine.
If I am not mistaken, it is part of the Ken Brooke Series of Booklets that Steven's Magic Emporium is still providing.
Hope that Helps
All the Best
Marty

Thank you both! It probably IS the Ken Brooke effect... I have "The Unique Years".. I'll have a looksee in there.

And I'll look into the Poor Mans Monte - I think I can even put my hand on the Index for Apocalypse (I have all the bound issues, rather than the hardbound book(s)

I already do the "Irish Three card trick",/ Martin Lewis..

Oh, life is so nice when a plan comes together!

Regards,

DCB
