“Facsimile” is an innovative solution for both novice magicians and experienced mentalists. It allows those hesitant about performing book tests with gimmicked books to shine, while also catering to seasoned performers seeking to execute multiple word revelations seamlessly. With minimal effort required, you can concentrate on delivering an exceptional presentation.
This clever book test utilizes a meticulously crafted replica of H.G. Wells’ classic, Time Machine. The reproduction is so authentic that your audience will genuinely believe it’s the original. They can examine the book at any time, and if desired, you can even read from it.
“Facsimile” enables a stunning three-phase effect that will astonish any audience:
Initially, you flip through the book, allowing them to stop at any page. They will remember the word they see, and without any fishing or memory work, you will reveal it in your own style.
To elevate the challenge, hand the book to them and let them select any page. After they remember a word, you will astonishingly know what it is.
Furthermore, you can divine another word from the same or a different page, totaling three words revealed during the performance. You can even predict a chosen word from earlier phases, securely placed in an envelope before the effect begins.
The softcover edition of Time Machine included with “Facsimile” contains 95 pages and measures 107mm x 175mm x 7mm (approximately 4in x 6in). Its compact size makes it ideal for close-up or strolling magic performances, easily fitting into your jacket pocket.
