This effect was originally invented by Lubor Fiedler in the early 1970’s and first published in his book “Magical Fantasies”. We happened to come across a small batch of this very rare item by an old fine magic dealer in Germany.
Two highly-polished brass cylinders are placed on a table. A spectator is asked to place one in each of his trouser pockets.
While your back is turned (or you can even be in another room), the spectator hides a match in one of the cylinders and places it back in his pocket. There is no possible way for you to see, hear or feel what the spectator is doing. Despite all this, you unerringly choose the correct pocket which contains the cylinder and match!
- Absolutely no sleights required.
- The spectator does all the handling.
- Magician never touches the cylinders!
- No magnets, transmitters, electronics, stooges or extra gimmicks of any kind!
- A diabolical principle that baffles both magicians and laymen!*
As with so many of Lubor Fiedler’s ideas it is brilliant with many applications and you will have a great moment when you come to learn the secret.
Comes along with English instructions.
