• This Side Up: An entire deck instantly reverses within a card case.
• Quartermain: Three coins penetrate a deck one by one, dropping into a glass below.
• Printed Matter: Three blank cards from a blank-faced deck visibly print into duplicates of three different selections, culminating in the entire deck printing for examination.
