Card Routines that is done with a full deck of cards plus one odd card.
- Hot Card Trick N° 1 by Al Leech. Trick marketed in 1950.
Becomes Chicago Opener by Frank Evehard in Million Dollar Card Secrets by Frank Garcia (1972).
Then Al Leech's Red Hot Mama by Jim Ryan in Jim Ryan Close-up written by Philip Willmarth (1980)
Again Red Hot Mama by Michael Ammar in DVD Easy to Master Card Miracles, Vol. 1 (1994).
Then The Chicago Surprise by Whit Haydn (2000).
The back of a freely selected card changes color--say, to red--and is set aside. A second card is selected and the red-backed card is seen to have transformed and has now surprisingly become the second selection. Ammar notes that this routine meets Dai Vernon's criterion for clarity of effect in the two simple transformations. Haydn notes that the blending of two methods to achieve the same effect (in this case the transformation of a card) increases the mystery and impossibility.
