The Improved Mind Reader’s Dream

By Bob Hummer and Rafael Fontao

Now with enhanced chart and handling!

In the early 1950s, Bob Hummer introduced “The Mind Reader’s Dream,” a captivating “Think a Card” effect. The magician presents a shuffled deck to a spectator, who simply thinks of a card. After handing the deck back and turning away, the spectator performs a few straightforward cuts and follows simple dealing instructions. Upon turning back, the magician scans the deck and, with the help of a compact “Dream Book,” reveals the chosen card. This updated version from Trickshop.com has streamlined the process by removing the book entirely. Now, everything you need fits on a small slip of paper, thanks to Professor Rafael Fontao’s innovation. This slip can easily be hidden in your palm or attached to various items like a cardbox or notepad. Key features include: compatibility with any deck (even borrowed ones), no setup or sleight of hand required, and minimal handling—only touching the deck at the start and finish. Included are Bob Hummer’s original instructions, new handling tips, practice steps, and ready-to-print artwork—everything essential to perform this self-working miracle! 11 pages.
