Thumb Fun by Sid Lorraine and Devin Knight

Once a beloved classic, Sid Lorraine’s Thumb Fun has been unavailable for over 40 years. Now, with permission from the Abbott Magic Company, Devin Knight has revived this trick and enhanced the original instructions. This effect was a favorite of the legendary Doug Henning, who learned it directly from Sid Lorraine and showcased it in his stage performances, often on a large screen.

In this captivating routine, the performer starts with an empty thumb and presses it against a blank card. When the thumb is lifted, a striking black thumbprint appears, revealing a miniature version of the selected card inside. This innovative card revelation is a staple among professional magicians and can be examined by the audience. The effect can be repeated with different cards, numbers, ESP symbols, or even initials, making it versatile and engaging for all ages. Spectators can keep the thumbprint as a memorable souvenir.

Included are Sid’s comprehensive instructions, now updated by Devin Knight, making this highly sought-after effect accessible once more. The illusion is so convincing that you’ll be amazed yourself, and you can master it in just five minutes.
