I just received this in the mail today, what an awesome effect!
If you have Doug's Dark Museum card set, you already know the quality cards that Doug puts out. This set consists of 12 Tarot size cards that, when put in their proper order, create three MUMMY'S of three different colors in their sarcophagi. The effect is great, the mummys are jumbled in packets consisting of different parts and colors. Miraculously, you put the mummys together so each color and mummy part match. This effect is very easy, and very visual. If you have the dark museum, this would play well with it. If you don't have the Dark Museum card set, for heaven's sake, get in contact with Doug and get both sets, you won't be disappointed! |

I purchased this card set and it is very clever and different!
I surprised myself doing it the first time. Watching the sections of the sarcophagi take order is a real fun visual. I'm going to unwind and try not to get too wrapped up about the bad Mummy jokes I'm going to unearth. |

I just took this out and played with it and I was also very impressed - it seems so impossible! I am bringing it with me to my programs tomorrow and will use it between shows as I mingle with a bunch of middle school students - now when they ask me to show them something else, I shall have the perfect effect for them!

Doug Higley,
Make fun of your customers, great way to get business. I did buy this, but I won't buy anything else from you to be sure. James Quote: On Oct 27, 2014, Doug Higley wrote:

James, I do hope you were kidding...I certainly was as I thought you were originally. I make fun of no one...only myself.

Its all good Doug, You rock man. I mentioned thumbtip because a long time ago you posted about thumbtip size and that you had huge hands.

Thanks James. All is well.
yeah, I remember that...I subsequently ordered an an extra large tip to no avail...it became an index finger tip haha. My response was in that vein...though I also have a big head, I can find glasses that fit.

Just thought I'd mention that the new ZEBRA IMPOSSIBLE is ready to ship. Easiest, fastest trick on the planet. Check it out.
Jamie Grant, you'll love it. But there are just 9 cards...not enough to stuff in a bottle.

TIP for owners of Mummy's Dilemma: How about simplifying it even more! Based on something I found for Zebra Impossible...I tried it on Mummy's Dilemma at the post office and jaws dropped. WE might think it's a bit lame BUT not the Muggles! In fact I don't think it's lame at all...here's the bit...DO NOT even shuffle or cut! That's it. Deal the cards per instructions but this time when you pick them up don't shuffle! Don't cut. Try it!
It's darn near magic. haha...it is Magic! (and it instantly resets automatically) Btw: There's something I left out here. Contact me.

Regarding Zebra Impossible: I don't want give away the spoiler on this trick as the fun is in the denouement ....and whether you realize it or not...us magicians buy tricks for our own amusement FIRST...which is why I don't like videos...that's old school CATALOG thinking...live and die by the 'Description' BUT having said that...Zebra Impossible is so simple there is the possibility smarties will figure out how you did it...which is the beauty of the trick because you can BET that what you are about to do IS Impossible...and win the bet, with the story element that proves it.
But if I told you what that was...it would ruin YOUR fun in finding out. There is a HINT on the page though. heh heh (I gotta have some fun.) (No Spoilers please)

Okey Dokey...it's not possible for me to set up a 'shopping cart' at this time...so...when you want to get multiple tricks, just go ahead and order and I will REFUND with combined shipping. USA, Canada, Overseas. Have no fear...we'll git 'er done.
For some very strange reason I can't figure out...some tricks that were mailed were not delivered so I have been replacing them. Just let me know after a reasonable time. Something is screwed up at the PO I reckon. Most get through a few have not but have been or are being replaced. Communication is all important. Here's something odd...I have been waiting for a few items I ordered and the Tracking states clearly they were delivered. Problem is, they weren't. So, so much for Tracking. Does anything work anymore?

Got a good email today from a Magi about Mummy's Dilemma...and he really nails what it's all about...
"The mummy (dilemma) trick is really great. Surprised the heck out of the person I tried it on and she has seen me perform every kind of B'wave, prediction and color changing back type trick there is. It weird's people out when they expect the performer to do some type of moves to accomplish a trick but with this there isn't any, yet the magic still happens. Seams like real magic to laymen, well done. thanks again " Jay Thanks Jay...you 'get it'!
