John Bannon’s PAINT IT BLANK

A Self-Working Think of Any Card Trick

Experience the magic of John Bannon’s PAINT IT BLANK, a remarkable effect that utilizes a unique Bicycle Gaff Card. This trick is reminiscent of the Invisible Deck but only requires one special gaff that seamlessly integrates with any standard shuffled Bicycle deck.

In this captivating performance, you instruct your spectator to clear their mind and simply think of ANY card. There are no forces, restrictions, or pre-show setups involved; they genuinely just think of a card. You then reveal that their ‘invisible card’ is now extracted from the deck and placed between two face-up jokers. In an astonishing moment, a REAL blank card materializes between the jokers, symbolizing their previously ‘blank’ mind.

As the climax, the blank card transforms in the spectator’s hands, printing itself into the card they just thought of. Best of all, this card is fully examinable! The effect is incredibly easy to perform, requiring no sleight of hand. It uses a regular shuffled Bicycle deck along with the provided special gaff card.

This trick is ideal for performers, as it involves no resets and requires no table. There are no stacks, forces, sleights, gaff decks, or equivoque involved, making it a straightforward yet powerful addition to your mentalism repertoire.
