The Unforgettable Spectator Experience

Imagine this: two spectators freely choose, sign, and lose their cards within a shuffled deck. The deck is then placed into an ordinary wine glass, which is draped with a napkin or silk. In an instant, as the cover is slowly removed, their first signed card impossibly appears at the front of the pack, clearly visible. This card is cleanly removed, and the process is miraculously repeated, with the second signed card also appearing as if by magic. This direct, impactful, and incredibly clean effect leaves spectators speechless, experiencing pure, unadulterated wonder right before their eyes.

What You Get

You get a 31 minute instructional video teaching you how to do ‘Signed Cards In Glass’. All you need are some cards (plus something you already have or can very easily make), a sharpie, a silk, napkin or hankie and a wine glass that your pack of cards can fit into easily.

This very direct and incredibly simple effect is within the grasp of all but the very beginner, even then, like all magic, you will still need to practice to create magic rather than just do a ‘trick’.

The Effect as seen by the spectators

A pack of cards is shuffled and a card is chosen by the first spectator, it is signed and lost in the middle of the deck, then a second card is chosen by a second spectator, signed then returned and also lost in the middle of the deck. The deck is then placed (back of the deck facing the audience, ie showing the card on the back of the deck) into a wine glass. The magician picks up the glass by the stem in one hand and with the other hand he drapes a napkin or silk over the entire glass. Slowly the napkin or silk is pulled off the wine glass to reveal that the first signed card has jumped to the front of the pack and the face of the card and signature can clearly be seen. Cleanly that card is removed and placed at the back of the pack (ie onto the top of the deck) and the process is repeated with the second signed card appearing to have jumped also. See the video trailer below to illustrate what the spectators see at the two finales.
