One of the greatest effects in magic has always been the Bill in Lemon, or Bill to Impossible Location. This is our version... a version we have been using successfully for more than ten years. It came about after trying most of the other methods and finding a need to create a method in which the bill could be borrowed... the corner could be slowly and visibly torn from the bill, and then without any switches the corner could be handed to the spectator and the remainder of the bill burned or otherwise destroyed only to have the bill reappear elsewhere, having the serial numbers match... as well as the turn pieces fitting together.
Our solution was simple... so simple we were surprised it hadn't been thought of before... yet over the past ten years we have researched and found that no one has ever used this method, unless first taught by us. Now is your chance to learn what has been called the best method for bill to impossible location our "Anywhere Bill".

Just released, 'Natural Force Books I' printed edition, a few years back Ken Driscoll released a handful of these as ebooks and they were well received. To explain them a little better we'll just say that with 'Natural Force Book I' you'll easily be able to perform book tests like Max Maven's 'Autome' from vol. 1 of his Videomind DVD series.. In fact this book came about in large part because of what Max taught in those DVDs.. The idea of turning nearly any book into a force book was exremely appealing, however the idea of searching books for commonalities seemed like it would be impossible or at the very least time consuming.. however while doing it Ken devised this system which helped in making nearly every book he opened a force book. Out of about 20 books he was easily able to come up with 15 or 16 force books.. by changing the prediction, or as Max recommends in 'Autome' doing a simple drawing after they read the first two or three line of text on the page turned to. This could be quite easily the best money you'll ever spent on book test material, because here you'll be able to use nearly any paper back book you pick up as part of your act; with this system the book could become a precious souvenir at the end of your performance.. try that with some of the high end book tests. We call this 'Natural Force Book I' because there will be a book II, in it we hope to add your ideas, more books, and better yet more prediction ideas..
As a bonus, you'll receive our 'Canasta Re-Visited' this is an idea based on one of Canasta's effect in which he would have audience members call up letters of the alphabet, after so many letter were called up, he and the audience would rearrange the letters to form a word.. then his prediction would be opened and the words would match, with our version.. a member of the audience calls out a three digit number (this is truly a random number, no math is used to cut it down to the number you want. no stooge is used to assure it being the number you want, and there is no pre-show work.. the number is random and could be called out by anyone) now you begin having letters of the alphabet called up to you as you write them on a board or pad. When the board/pad is filled with letter you and the audience begin searching the board (like a giant word search game) for any words that may have been formed randomly by the audience (again the letters al called up randomly.. there are no stooges.. no pre-show work.. nothing is handed out to the audience.. they are simply asked to think of a letter and call it when you get to them) as words are found they are circled and written in the margin.. now a member of the audience turns to the page number matching the three digit number previously called out by an audience member and reads aloud the first three or four lines.. much to everyone's surprise the words they formed match the words in the text on the page also randomly called out.
This is a great instruction manual as you not only get the information on how to turn any book into a force book, but you'll also get the ins-and-outs of our Canasta routine along with some other forcing ideas.

The Opposite Corner Deck like the Inside deck this deck allows you the comfort of working with a gaffed deck, that is so close to being ungaffed you'll never fear getting caught. Like the Inside Corner Deck this deck has ABS (Automatic Breaking System) built in, no more crimped cards, no lost pinky, finger or thumb breaks.. imagine handing a stacked deck out to be cut as many times as the audience wants yet with in a cut or two you have the stack right back where you want it.. set-up for a cutting to the aces routine, in the middle of the routine have a card selected and returned to the middle of the deck, several cuts later you cut the selection to the top, then continue on with you race routine.. the deck is a locator deck but unlike some locator decks this one can be handled by the audience with very little fear of them finding your secret.. in fact they can cut it from the long edge or the short side and never feel your locator card - these decks are fun.. beginners can do effect they never thought they would be able to accomplish, professionals will just enjoy the comfort of a quick set up, and safety net during performance.. as I said these decks are fun.. fun for both the beginner and the pro, we all love to play and these decks not only let us do some great magic, but the fat that they are not over gaffed lets us actually sit down and play a regular game of cards if we want..

Reflecta Thot II
by Becker/Driscoll
Ken Driscoll has modernized and perfected this classic Larry Becker mentalism effect. Ken has made the effect a little more commercial for the walk-around, close up, and platform performer. He combines both classic patter from Becker, as well as his own suggestions, leaving the performer with several options for a great performance.
