The etienne one is not impromtou and not ideal for street magic, I have it so please correct me if I'm wrong, and ill look over it again, I imagine it would be really good on stage but not really my style, does anyone know of any good signed card to bottles that would be good for street magic, is the larry jennings one anygood for that style?

Hello, also very intersted in "Signed Card in Sealed Bottle" by Etienne Pradier.
My style would be closeup with friend, to let the spec signed a card/bill, then go under the table or in a bag with the signed card/bill saying "I have something interesting here"...and bring the sealed bottle with card/bill inside leaving them magicaly puzzled....
Is it possible to do it like this ? Is it possible with a bill ? The card/bill can be loaded quickly ?
(More like an impossible object for souvenir )

Thank you,
Nicolas

I think that should be ok, ill look over the dvd again to make sure and if no-one else replies ill post if its possible.

Thanks for your help jayp
I have my credit card ready in case of a yes !

Nicolas

I can't wait to see Nicolas do the trick to me and leave me with an "impossible souvenir". Give me a call when you are ready
Jonathan.

So nobody know if this trick can be done close-up ? But the loading beeing done in a bag or under the table to suppress any angle issue/problem.
It is of course interesting if the loading is kind of fast

Hope it is a yes so I can do it to Jonathan P. with his signed euro bill of course

Nicolas

Eer... Does it work with a pencil?

Hi,
It can be done close-up, but you do need to do the load under a table or in a bag but it does take only a second to load.
The beauty of the effect is that the bottle can be given away with the signed card floating in it, and they will not find the gimmick.
I must say I like it a lot, the card routine that Etienne uses is also great.
Hope this helps
cheers,
Tel

Mr_Nutkins, you said exactly the word I wanted to hear
Great trick leaving a great puzzling objetc in spectator hand, just love it !

Thanks a lot Mr_Nutkins !

Nicolas

ps: Jonathan P, prepare your bill !

Does Camilo Vasquez have a website? A demo of his Card to Brandy Bottle? Any material available to the magic community?

agreed!

I have heard a mixed review on this effect as well... logically, the signed card cant be inside a sealed bottle... hmm? so I am very interested in this effect! The reviews I have heard are on the good side!!! -Jesse

I would like to see a video of the Camillo effect, I have never seen it and I won't ever see it live, I think... Is there something online?

Dave

You need only use larry jennings...you'll be surprised with how easy it is to fool..

I just happened to stumble on this discussion. For those who are looking for other methods to perform this trick. I have am E-book on my site on the subject of card in bottle. It's called, "Ron Jaxon's Card in Bottle Techniques." It's a collection of methods I use on a regular basis in my bar work. You can check it out at my site (link in my signature below).

It's a great effect. Never fails to get a good reaction.

I am looking for a one mand no stooge any beer or water bottle for a signed version. I read Larry Jennings version and it seems like it would work. Ammar has one in his book I beleave. I just don't know if I have the cojones to try it. I don't work behind a bar all the times.

Yes it can. Just ask Lisa Menna.

Camillo, as far as I know does not have a site, and has NOT tipped or published his version. It is one of the strongest, most entertaining routines I have seen in years. And his DICE WORK... is to die for (pun intentded).

I suppose we're left to only dream.......maybe soemday he'll change his mind and share with us all. Thanks Pete!

Does someone know in which way Camillo version is better than Pradier version ?
(I have it and not to happy with it....)
I like the idea in Pradier version that the bottle is sealed !

Nicolas

Nicolas,
Why are you not happy with the Pradier version? I don't own it and am not familiar with it's workings, so if you could explain why without exposing methods please elaborate.
