Paper Folding Giveaways for Magicians by Sid Lorraine & Devin Knight
Sid Lorraine was renowned for his innovative paper folding giveaways, where images or text transform as the paper is folded. Each fold tells a humorous and unique story, culminating in a promotional piece for your magic show, complete with your name, website, and contact number stamped on the back. Originally launched by Abbott Magic Company in the 1950s, Devin Knight has revived these creations, introducing Sid Lorraine’s brilliance to a new generation of magicians. You will receive printable designs that can be easily reproduced at home or at a copy center.
This collection includes four distinct paper-folding giveaways, some of which were previously known as Fold N’ Fun and are now rare finds. While the original versions featured outdated patter from over five decades ago, Devin Knight has refreshed the content with updated scripts and innovative ideas.

One standout feature is a hilarious tale about an old newspaper man. By enlarging the drawing at a copy center, you can create a large visual that is perfect for stage visibility. This comedic piece rivals popular effects like Magic Manor or Grave Mistake, offering a fresh take on stage paper folding that audiences will love!
YOUR NAME PUZZLE
WHAT! NO RABBIT?
This giveaway is far more impactful than traditional dollar bill tricks, as it provides children with a prop they can use to perform the trick themselves. Each time they showcase the trick, your name and contact information will be prominently displayed on the paper. What better way to promote your show?
The concept is simple: present a flyer for your show and challenge kids to find a hidden rabbit. Although they won’t see it initially, with just two easy folds, the rabbit magically appears. This clever trick is sure to delight every child and costs only a few cents per giveaway.
