Magic Flying Carpet Illusion -

 Excellent Condition  RRP £455

As New
 
How it's performed:     

       "A small platform on casters is rolled to any spot on the floor desired. Resting on the platform is a beautifully decorated two-fold screen. It supports a platform with gold fringe representing a carpet. A child from the audience sits on the carpet, and the magician asks them to sit still and cross their legs. The screen is then removed along with the swords which leaves the carpet suspended in mid-air! The magician then causes the carpet to spin around with the child on it! A hoop can even be passed around it to show that there are no wires. This is quite an amazing piece of kid’s magic!
 
Excellent condition as New and it a wonderful piece of magic to finish a show.  The children can't believe their eyes as the carpet appears to be flying with a child on it!!!
 
This is not a heavy item and can be picked up and moved around easily.
 
Collection only from Hertfordshire.

HOLD THAT TIGER

Original version

still in Excellent  condition works like a dream

Made by Harry Stanley /Billy Day 

EFFECT: Magician introduces two Circus Clowns called “SPOTTY" and “STRIPEY” because of their very distinctive Dress! Pointing to a very attractive house he says “and they live at number SIX Paradise Street”. The kiddies yell ...“No, it’s number Nine!” “Sorry,” says the magician, and he cleverly causes the number to change!
Again he states the number of the house, but the kiddies shout their disagreement and once again the number changes! This really FUNNY “BUSINESS” is repeated ... the kiddies shouting more and more! Further Comedy is now obtained by the magician apparently forgetting “which is which” and the children yell their “correction”. Finally, it all gets sorted out to the children's satisfaction and delight.
On getting it settled, magician sends “STRIPEY” off to the Circus. “ SPOTTY” stays at home because he’s scared of the Circus Tiger. “Now says the magician, “I’m going to show you a wonderful trick. I'm going to make the Clowns change places!” He tells the children the magic word that will “cast a spell” and gets them to call it out ALOUD. They do so ... and magi says, “That’s wonderful ... I bet you have done the trick for me.” He goes to the “Circus” and exclaims; “Yes, the trick is working beautifully,” and shows that “SPOTTY” is now at the Circus. He goes over to the house, confidently opens the door saying “And here is STRIPY.”
The Kiddies yell, “ No it isn’t!” Magician now sees that instead of the expected “Stripey” ... there is a fearsome looking Tiger! “The magic isn’t working ... something's gone wrong. Where’s Stripy?” he asks plaintively.
To his surprise the kiddies tell him “ LOOK IN THE CIRCUS !“ they shout. And they are right too! (How did they know. Ah! that's telling!) All ends happily, for going to the “Circus” he removes the TWO loveable Clowns . . SPOTTY and STRIPY

The Five Star Packets.

Great Informative manuscript from supreme magic.

Effect 1

A card is selected and retained by a spectator until the conclusion. To the accompaniment of a following line of patter, The Magician folds up a pice of paper and cuts two snips only. Unfolding the same it is seen that he has thus correctly disclosed the chosen card, as the cut-out paper represents the chosen pip card held by the spectator

Effect 2: Comedy Neck ties Routine: a very clever routine for comedy performers.

Effect 3: Squeeze Coin Routine - You Borrow a small plate and a half dollar or similar size coin. Both Hands are shown DEFINITELY empty and you then start bouncing the coin on the plate in an effort to crack the plate. Not succeeding, you pick up the coin, squeeze it and pour out onto the plate instead...a quarter, two dimes and a nickel; these are all returned to the donor in exchange for his half dollar. Fast Surprising and goes over very well any were...

Effect 4:  Fly to – Card   : A freely selected card is vanished from a borrowed deck and found at a pre- determined page in an unprepared book chosen by the audience and held by a spectator. No Difficult Slights and may be performed impromptu.

Very Surprising and Effective.

Effect 5: Improved Ropes thru Neck: Two ropes are passed around the neck and tied in front then apparently, pulled right through the neck and immediately handed out for examination with loops and the knots intact 

The improved neck through ropes Section is worth the price alone in my opinion
