Share the magic! ****** I am a bit obsessed with the Ted Danson "Diary" effect (as are many magicians because it is such an insteresting way to present a card trick!). Among my all-time favorities, I rank Paul Green's "Fortune Teller's Book of Days" up near the top. This is one a very nicely bound version of the Datebook effect, and Green has greatly simplified the method and routine. There is no memorization, calculation, multiple calendar books, multiple card decks. Just one really great looking calendar book that you use with your own regular deck of cards. L&L put this out in 1996, and (in my opinion) it is up there with Paul Gordon’s and Bob Cassady’s versions as the best way to do the calendar trick. This one is definitely the nicest looking and classiest version with its hardbound calendar, each day having a fortune attached as well as a card name. See pics to know how nice this one is! The effect: a spectator is handed a beautiful bound calendar book and a deck of cards to hold, and she mentions ANY date that is special to him/her. The magician asks her for the deck, and he explains that cards have a lot in common with calendars -- 52 cards, 52 weeks, 4 suits, 4 seasons, etc etc The deck is removed from the card box, and is placed on the table in front of her. She cuts the deck somwhere in the middle. Then she is asked to turn to her special date in the calendar. She dows and she reads the fortune for her special day. She is struck by how accurate it is. At the end of her fortune, there is the name of a card, boldly imprinted in the book. The card she cut to in the deck is turned over, and it is the very same card that is written on her selected date. Very effective, very commercial. And also very easy to do. BONUS: I will also include a bonus routine, my own (even EASIER!) handling that I sometimes use, where there's no cutting of the deck -- just spectator names a date, looks up the fortune and lucky card for that date. That same card is removed from the face-up BLUE backed deck, and it is seen to have a RED back that says "Your Lucky Card" on it! No longer available, and I have sold out before at over $100 each, but came across a few more of these beauties. So I have lowered the price, and you can get one before there gone again. Checking online as I write this, I see one of these (used) listed from one online seller for $75, and another for $85. But get a brand new, unused one here for less! (plus you get my TMGS bonus routine!) From new-old dealer inventory, these are unused, not previously owned. Original L&L book and instruction sheet. NOTE: deck of cards in the photo is not included -- just there so you can easily see the size of the book. Use your own regular deck. I only have a few of these, so don't wait! +++++++++++ ***** Yes, we will combine multiple eBay wins into a single shipment to help lower the overall shipping costs.
