Torn-N-Restored Addition by Jeramy Neugin
A signed Ace and Three are torn up. When they are restored they create a 3 ½ of Clubs and the signatures are still intact!
Coin Under Card by Kyle Purnell
A coin vanishes and appears under a card three times. On the third time, the coin actually fuses with the card, impossibly changing the actual printing on the card.
Finger Counting by Tori Noquez
Stick the 3 ½ of Clubs in your wallet, pocket, or purse and you are ready to perform this brain-bending miracle anytime anywhere. You don’t even need a deck of cards. Tori has created a mathemagical masterpiece!
Half Prediction by Milt Kort
This is the routine that started it all. Your spectator rolls a die. The magician makes an impossible prediction and, sure enough, the magician delivers on the prediction every single time!
Impossible Split by Dylan Young
A 7 of Clubs is visually torn into two cards, two 3 ½ of Clubs to be exact. The cards are then tossed onto the table visually becoming one 7 of Clubs once again. Believe it or not, this wild piece of eye candy can be performed with a single 3 ½ of Clubs and a normal deck of cards.
