A Few Highlights
- CHEAP LABOUR: A card is chosen and removed from the deck, along with two indifferent cards. A stickman is then drawn on the back of a fourth card, and given the impossible task of finding the selection. True to the task, he multiplies and appears on the backs of all the cards in the four card packet, then vanishes from all the cards but one - of course, it's the selection!
- AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DOLLARS: The magician introduces a deck of cards, each of which has a country listed on the face, and has two countries chosen from it. The magician then borrows a bill from the audience, and proceeds to change it into bills from each chosen country, and then changes the bill back to the original bill!
