Marked Prediction

We've found lots of these in our inventory.  I personally use this in my close-up act.  Really Nice.

Effect

Rich Marotta, comedy magician exrordinare, has taken the classic 52on-One card to dizzying new heights. This is a complete routine that gets big laughs, plays at any size venue, and fools the heck out of them. Plus, it`s extremely easy to do!

The performer asks a spectator to call out any card. Once done, the performer removes a giant (6" x 9") playing card from an envelope. With dramatic flair he turns the card around and there is the spectators card - because all 52 are printed on the face of the card! This gets a huge laugh. Wait, there`s more..The performer offers to repeat the effect, only this time he takes out a marking pen and makes a large "X` on one of the miniature cards. The spectator is allowed to think of another card, and when the performer turns the card around, the spectators thought-of-card has been crossed out by the marker! This effect can easily be repeated anytime!
