You take a deck of cards and tell the audience that you have made a prediction that is in your inside coat pocket. You proceed to let a spectator choose a card, and then show you have predicted it by removing from your pocket a Jumbo Eight of Spades (for example).
The spectator protests that this is incorrect, so you ask for the name of the card chosen. "The Queen of Hearts" (for example) you are told. "In that case," you say, "I must perform what is called in the trade, a switch." You turn the card around and fixed to the back is a wall switch, you solemnly flip the switch. When you turn the card round again, it has changed to the correct card, the Queen of Hearts.

Comedy Comeback Card
by Martin Lewis
Effect
A deck of cards is shown, and cut to bring the Five of Diamonds (for example) to the face. It is then put into a clear holder to prevent any possibility of sleight of hand. Now the Five of Diamonds is deliberately removed and pushed it into the deck leaving the Six of Spades (for example) showing.
A handkerchief is flicked over the cards, and the Five of Diamonds jumped right back to the front. The Five is removed to show the Six of Spades is still there.
Following the popular six card repeat theme, the effect is repeated a second and third time, on the fourth try a Joker makes an appearance. Finally the Joker is put away and the Five jumps back for the last time.
An ideal Parlor or Club effect, the Come-Back Card comes complete and ready to perform. No complicated resets, good visibility, and strong visual impact make this an ideal item for your next seasons show.
Ready to perform with a deck of cards, holder, handkerchief, gimmick cards, and instructions.

You will also get to experience the comedy and professional routining that have earned him a worldwide reputation.
Routines performed and explained:
Queenie, The Amazing Dancing Girl: A fast paced Three Card Monte type routine where the money card is all over the place, but never where you expect it. Sidewalk Shuffle: Martin presents his handling to one of the best-selling card routines of all time. It is also the one he invented and is best known for. The Odd Card: An impossible Monte routine with jumbo cards where the money card vanishes and a joker is found in its place. Spec Deck: A funny routine where a selected card is found through the markings it develops on it's back.
