Product Description
This fun fooler now comes pocket-sized. If you're looking for oodles of spectator interaction, lots of comedy and a big surprise ending - the Comedy Sliding Coin Box has it in spades.
Sometimes called the 'Sucker Coin Box', this is a handy sized version of the much-loved Die Box effect, a favourite with generations of children's' magicians. What's the secret of its popularity? It's not a trick but a whole routine with lots of banter between the performed and the spectators.
This prop packs small but plays big. Highly recommended trick for church, school and youth workers who are looking for something special for any message on money. 'See how quickly your money can disappear!'
Another beautifully made wooden prop from the Italian master of magic, Vincenzo Difatta.
EFFECT
A small wooden double compartment box with two small doors is shown. They are both opened to show that the box is empty. A coin is introduced and is placed into the left compartment of the box and the doors are closed. The box is then visibly tilted, and the door to the left compartment is opened. The coin is seen to have vanished.
The audience is not impressed, because they saw the coin slide to the opposite compartment through the open space between the two doors. So they ask the magician to open the door of the other compartment. The magician closes the door to the first compartment then tilts the box, (the audience again sees the coin sliding over), then opens the door to the adjacent compartment to show that it is empty. This business of sliding the coin from one compartment to the other is repeated, till the audience is howling for both doors to be opened at the same time.
After some byplay, the magician opens both doors of the box and it is completely empty. The coin has completely vanished. It then appears from behind a spectator's ear! Tah Dah!
GOSPEL IDEAS
Illustrate any biblical story, where something or someone is lost and then found. For example, the parable of the Lost Coin, the Lost Sheep and the Prodigal Son.
A unique Easter message. The box becomes the tomb, the coin is Jesus as you illustrate how the tomb was found empty on that first Easter morning. 'But some people said the disciples had hidden his body' as you tip the box and open a door. 'And even some of his disciples doubted that he had risen,' as you tip the box and open another door. 'All these questions and doubts seemed reasonable except for the fact that his body has really disappeared,' and you reveal that the coin, like Jesus, is no longer there. 'He was raised from the dead and appeared to the disciples many times'. Now you produce the coin from the pages of a Bible.
- Guaranteed to get a great reaction
- Easy to use and slips into your pocket
- Illustrate dozens of different biblical messages
