You ask a spectator to examine both pieces of this two piece, guillotine style finger chopper. They find the blade to be solid, and the stocks solid as well. You then take the two pieces back, and place your finger in opening of the "stocks." You then slide the blade piece through both the stocks and your finger, but your finger remains miraculously intact! You can then hand both pieces back to the spectator for further examination!

Poker Chip Surprise

Poker Chip Surprise

Inspired by the work of Connie Haden, Doc Eason and Paul Green, Joe Porper and Pete Biro bring you the poker chip Surprise.

The performer brings out a small leather pouch, opens it and displays three casino poker chips. Placing them into the left hand, the red chip is taken away in the right hand. When both hands are opened the chips have transposed, the red is in the left and the other two chips in the right. This is repeated, then repeated again, however this time in a spectator's own hands! The transposition happens again!

To finish, the red chip is placed into the pouch, yet still changes places with the other two chips. You finish clean, and the chips can be examined and can be used for other routines.

You receive precision-made, to Joe Porper’s high standards, all the necessary poker chips(gaffed and un-gaffed), an illustrated instruction booklet, and a custom-designed leather carrying pouch that works like a Himber wallet for an effortless way to bring into play (and out) the gimmicked chips.

Get modern! With the popularity of poker, thanks to the big money tournaments on TV, we felt it was time to release a version of Connie Haden’s Double Copper and Silver made with genuine casino poker chips.

Money Printer by Mikame

Money Printer by Mikame

Old world craftsmanship from Mikame Craft says it all. Pure quality sets this apart from all other versions of this classic. Hard wood construction throughout, two knobs are used for turning the rollers. Many different routines and combinations are possible with this excellent prop. You can feed slips of blank white paper into one side of the rollers, and REAL money comes out the other side. Borrow a £5 from a spectator, run it through the money printer and a blank piece of paper appears. Apologise, and hand the paper back to the spectator! Insert a blank piece of paper, turn the knob, and a £5 slips out of the other side. Now borrow a £5 from the audience, insert it into the printer, and a £10 falls out. Put in the £10, and a £20 comes out. Now, take the piece of paper from the audience member whose £5 you have already changed, insert it into the printer and his £5 appears at the other side. Can be used with foreign notes

PorperRING GOLD PLATEby Joe Porper

PorperRING GOLD PLATEby Joe Porper

Wedding Band Ellis Ring - One of the great classic items in the world of magic is the Jardine Ellis Ring. The basic concept is a metal harness ring with a fitted shell.

Copyright for this book belongs to Martin Breese, and thanks to his kindness allows us to re-write and publish material from that book that would work with Porper’s new Wedding Band version of the classic Jardine Ellis Ring. Porper’s new concept, a wedding band made like an Ellis Ring allows you to do things like Ring on Stick and Ring and String effects almost self-working, requiring little or no difficult sleight-of-hand.

Colour Changing Pyramid

Colour Changing Pyramid

The magician shows the audience a flat pyramid.

One side is yellow; the other red.
The magician folds up the panels to create a yellow pyramid, and then pulls out lots of yellow silks one by one.

Now the magician flattens the pyramid, creates a new red pyramid, and proceeds to pull out a lot of red silks.

Surprisingly the last silk is blue, so he unfolds the pyramid and shows that its color has changed to blue!

The pyramid folds into a small flat triangle for ease of transportation and will mystify even the most professional magicians!

No silks supplied.

Grandpas Top Hat by Ton Onosaka

Grandpas Top Hat by Ton Onosaka

The performer displays a large framed picture of a Top Hat that belonged to his grandfather. It is a magic hat. He shows how it was used. The picture is passed behind the performers back and a picture of a rabbit appears and then disappears. The kids are not impressed "You turned it around!" - Here is where the fun begins. Each time the other side of the picture is shown it changes. The Rabbit transforms to a colourful bouquet of flowers, then to a White Dove, a cute Teddy Bear and finally the hat is empty again. Entirely self working and brilliantly made. You will marvel at how clever this prop is. Best part is that it PACKS FLAT and plays BIG!
