Here is latest exclusive release from Saturn Magic currently available with free worldwide shipping option.
Get yours here www.saturnmagic.co.uk/saturn-magic-shop/......-daniels ONCE UPON A TIME there was a Book Test that ticked every box. That time is now. Facsimile (from Latin fac simile, "to make alike") is a copy or reproduction of an old book, manuscript, map, art print, or other item of historical value that is as true to the original source as possible. By Dictionary Definition, Michael Daniels has created a book test so genuine, it’s as close to ‘real’ as you’ll ever get. Three world famous Books; Frankenstein, The Invisible Man and Time Machine have been so meticulously and deviously reproduced your audience will truly believe they are originals. Facsimile is quite simply the book test with a real book. You have the opportunity to perform MULTIPLE word revelations on ANY Page of one book, two, or even all three. This is as close to ‘fair’ and ‘random’ as it gets. The basic three-word effect is as follows: Offer a member of your audience Frankenstein, The Invisible Man or The Time Machine. If you’ve got all three then let them select ANY book they like. Flick through the book and get them to say STOP anywhere they like and instruct them to remember a word on the page. Without any fishing or memory work, you will know the word they have in their mind and reveal it however you wish. Just in case your audience suspect you did something funny as you were holding the book, hand it to them and let them choose ANY page they like. Instruct them to remember a word on the page. Once again, you know the exact word they are thinking of. And, if that’s not all, you can even divine a THIRD word on the same page, different page or even different book! You’ll know instantly the word they are thinking of. During phase two or three, you can even predict their chosen word using an envelope that has been in play before they have even opened the book. Perform with one, two or three books Examinable before, during and after You can read the whole novel from cover to cover! No duplicate pages or Svengali principle No forces - a totally free choice of page No fishing No memory work required Can be performed without you handling the book Learn within minutes Suitable for stand-up and close up performances Included in the package is the book or books of your choice and online instructions. The Time Machine is approx 107mm x 175mm x 7mm with 95 pages. The Invisible Man is approx 152mm x 230mm x 10mm with 154 pages. Frankenstein is approx 152mm x 230mm x 15mm with 220 pages. Note from Saturn Magic Facsimile: The Unabridged Book Test really is a thing of beauty and comes with our highest recommendation. It’s the perfect product for beginners who have always steered clear of this type of effect and more profound mentalists looking to perform multiple word revelations in the fairest possible conditions with the least amount of work, allowing you to focus fully on your presentation. Perform Facsimile with one, two or all three books. The smaller Time Machine book fits in your jacket pocket and is fantastic for close up performers and walk-around. And upon discovering Facsimile, Mentalists and Magicians performed happily ever after. THE END

The books can be read, that's the whole idea of them being examinable.
The original books are also very old, do you think a reproduction of a really old book would / should have fancy modern graphics and images? Funny how you judge a buying decision on a picture on a book cover that is totally in keeping with the book and not on how amazing and easy to perform they are for the performer

Yes, the books can be read normally from cover to cover. Each contains the full text of the original book with tweaks to permit the effects to work.

Knowing the care and quality Saturn put into their releases I am sure the books are top notch. What I would welcome though, and has been missing so far, is an in depth review.

The Originals have very plain covers. Yes lots of reprints have lots of fancy graphics etc but the originals are very plain.

I am in the book business and have been much of my life. I have absolutely no issue with the covers used for the Facsimile books - in fact I actually like them. Simple and clear - that is what is needed.
Well done Saturn - and also now knowing a little more about the workings of the test, these books contain two mighty and powerful principles which can either be used on their own or in a bigger routine making Facsimile nicely versatile and practical. Neil |

Hi Guys,
Any reviews of this one? I mean from people actually having purchased this and using it on a regular basis? Would have preferred more modern looking covers of the books, having said that it seems like a great book test. Br Jan |

Small voice from the past, keeping things simple and easy, I just love the cleverness of Al Korans book test, I have used this countless times, still do if I need a book test, any publication is used, any number of books. Originaly sold by Harry Stanley for £5.

Is there a dealer in the US that has the other books like Frankenstein or The Invisible man? Or does anyone here have one?
