Discover the Art of Self-Working Table Magic
In “Self Working Table Magic,” Karl Fulves introduces a captivating enigma that involves folding a card into an impossible shape. While it may not fit the traditional definition of magic, this intriguing piece serves as a fantastic conversation starter, and the final folded card is remarkably deceptive.
Tom Frame elevates the Hypercard concept by incorporating it into a Card Warp presentation. Although he’s not the first to explore this idea—Ben Harris and Wesley James have also contributed to this theme—Tom’s rendition stands out for its simplicity, utilizing a gimmicked card included in the booklet. I witnessed him astonish a crowd of magicians at the TSD convention years ago, receiving an enthusiastic response (check the cover of this booklet for a glimpse of the warped card’s stunning outcome).
This booklet features a total of eight Hypercard effects, beginning with Karl Fulves and followed by contributions from Don England, Ben Harris, Martin Gardner, Wesley James, and Bob Neale.
While this material may not represent the latest trends in street magic, it offers a unique experience for the right performer and audience, leaving a memorable impression and a cherished souvenir for spectators.
