Wild Card

Oldie but a goodie

I did magically professionally in my teens and early twenties and then turned to other pursuits. Now, some thirty years later, I have returned to magic. I missed it. So much has changed in the age of the internet with so much more information on techniques, presentations and new slights out there. I performed Wild Card all the time back in the day, when I was working at a small magic shop and performing, and it was always a crowd pleaser. I was very excited to see that it is still around. I have been practicing non-stop on my new routine and introducing new handlings which I have seen across the internet. My one complaint about the Bicycle Deck Wild Card is that they all seem to be the same combination of cards for the trick (I received two decks from different vendors and then checked with others as well as online videos, and they all seem to be the same). I always used to carry three packets with me with different combinations so that I could perform the trick in the same room to different onlookers without everyone thinking I was redoing something I had already done (with a different presentation and handling). I wish there were an assortment with these packets. Nonetheless, the cards are good quality and I am sure will last much longer than the old waxed nondescript playing cards of which my packets were made. I also appreciated the instruction packet that came with the cards and gave me some ideas for different routines and handlings.

A true classic of magic!

This is one of the best card tricks you can do.Period!
