Astor – Pocket Illusion
The Astor Pocket Illusion is a captivating magic trick featuring five unique cards, each depicting a segment of an illusion box. These cards reveal parts of an alluring assistant’s body, while the reverse side showcases the wooden backing of the illusion box. The magician skillfully shuffles the cards, yet in an astonishing twist, the parts reassemble in the correct order almost instantly. After the performance, the audience is invited to examine the cards.
Next, the magician introduces five additional cards that not only display the front of the box but also reveal the back, allowing the audience to see the mixed body parts from both perspectives. Remarkably, despite the apparent chaos, the individual body parts align correctly from both views in a heartbeat. This stunning illusion is perfect for close-up performers who wish to create a magical experience while maintaining their illusionist flair. With minimal sleight of hand required, this trick is easy to master.
