Wacky, incredibly visual and totally impossible. Only a few words can describe this reputation maker. Ever wondered what to do with those double blankcards you've collected over the years? Here's the ultimate trick for you.
A spectator can chose any 4 double blankcards from a deck, or you can hand out 4 cards for inspection. Any one card is signed and placed aside. The remaining 3 cards all change to the spectator's signed card and can be clearly shown one at a time. In the end, they all become blank again and the spectator keeps his original signed card as a souvenir.
You show five cards completely blank on both sides. A card is selected from a regular deck (say the QH). The same card appears on the face of every blank card. Then all the cards are blank again including the spectator’s selection; this card now re-appears face up in the middle of the deck!
Requires four cardsblank on both sides, a blank-backed card and a blank-faced card.
The performer fans a deck of cards which are all blank. Spectator merely thinks of a card. Performer removes the thought of card, which is naturally again a blank card. Magically the blank card turns into the thought of card and as a climax the whole blank deck turns into a regular deck.

Three cards are put face down on the table. Put three blankcards over the first card and the blankcards all change into the same card they were put on. Repeat this with the other two cards. The cards always magically change their faces. At the end, the faces change again and the entire deck is blank.
You place the Ace, Two, Three and Four of Clubs on the table in a square formation as is typically done with matrix-type effects. You cover two cards with two jumbo cards. One by one all the cards assemble under one jumbo card.
You try to repeat the 'assembly' without the jumbo cards but the regular cards do not move. You turn over three cards and they are seen to be all blank. The other card is the 10 of Clubs, the sum of all the cards!
[Note: Aldo originally included the three necessary blankcards and the two jumbo cards. This download does not include these cards. You will have to supply them yourself.]
A stunning color change of blankcards into printed cards.
You show four cards which are blank on both sides. Suddenly an ace of spades appears. When you spread the four cards all formerly blankcards are now aces. Turning over the fan shows four different backs. The blankcards have changed to non-blank front and back.
Card to Envelope
In the book Inspirations (published by Martin Breese in 1987) I included an effect called 'Envelope Prediction'. This is a different version which I performed as part of my close-up act at the Blackpool convention in 1979. There is no palming or copping of cards, in fact you could call this near-self-working!

A card is selected and lost back into the deck. You give the spectator an old coin/medallion which they hold in their hand. This, you say, will send "truth waves" to the deck. You now ask the spectator a series of questions about his card: he...
You show the spectator four blankcards, explaining them you'll show them a quick illusion. All four cards are shown blank on each side, but with a snap of the fingers backs magically appear! Even the faces become printed BUT... It was only an illusion...
You start by showing one joker and several blankcards, which are blank on both sides. Adding the joker to the blankcards makes them all become jokers on their faces. Then you do the same with the backs and end up with a pack of jokers. The blankcards have changed to jokers.

The book starts out with eleven hints or tips to keep in mind when showing card tricks. This is a mix of the usual tips for beginners, such as not performing a trick twice, or not explaining upfront what you intend to do, and more advanced or less common recommendations such as not performing a trick under its common name but rather invent a new name.

EFFECT: A participant thinks of any 2-digit number. It is a completely free choice and there is no force at all.

You start by showing four cards from the back, one of which is orange, while the others have red backs. The front of the orange-backed card is blank. You table that card. As you show the three remaining red-backed cards for the second time, one has changed to a blue back. The front is again blank. One more time around, and another card has changed its back to a different color.
You pick up the four cards and show their faces, but they now have all turned into four Jokers. Another magical gesture and they have changed into four Queen of Hearts. Then the four Queen of Hearts change to the...

This is the first in a new series of videos by David Devlin. In this video, David teaches three of his best effects. These effects are not difficult to perform, but each one is a very hard-hitting effect.
Here are the effects:
Boomerang: This will knock them on their butts. A deck with a blue back (which has been in use) has from it a card selected and signed. Two jokers with red backs are introduced and shown freely. The selected card is pushed into the center of the deck by the spectator. Without coming near the deck, the signed selection materializes between the jokers! Once again, the...
