Here's a mental miracle that psychic entertainers will put to good use right away. A bonus is that at the finish, the spectator is left with your calling card as a souvenir.
EFFECT: The performer writes a prediction on a piece of paper and hands it to a spectator for safekeeping. Next, names are said aloud by members of the audience and are penciled in on several of the performer's (or a corporate sponsor's) business cards. These are then turned face down on the table, so that none of the names are visible. Any spectator is allowed to mix and select a card (a free choice) and may even change their mind if they wish. Once a selection has been agreed upon, the card is turned over and read aloud. Now the spectator who is holding the prediction is asked to open it and read aloud the message it contains. It's a perfect match!
Magicians and mentalists alike rave over the brilliant routining that makes this effect possible.
"A mental effect that's a stunner. A honey of an impromptu table trick." - Max Holden
"An intriguing name prediction. Many other classifications may be used such as colors, brand names, automobiles, and the like. The careful attention to convincing handling is evident in this item." - Dariel Fitzkee
