This clever deck switch case was originally invented by Magiro and released by Eckhard Boettcher c. 1993 as “Kartenspiel Austauschkassette” (see final photo.). This updated and improved version from the dynamic duo of Joe Long and Paul Lembo for their Limited Edition Magic line is a truly beautiful version and is my new favorite deck switch. Previously I thought Heirloom Workbench’s Switch was the go-to high-end device, but that has all changed with this beauty.
A few points to notice:
- It works completely differently from any other deck switch device I have seen, thanks to the brilliant mind of Magiro and impressive construction of Paul Lembo, and you no longer have to turn the whole box over.
- It looks like one of those high-end executive organizers and will look great in your office, magic den, living room, or in your local pub such as The Porcupine.
- You can place the case in front of the spectator at the beginning of the effect and perform the switch and at no time do you need to actually touch the cards, the spectator is free to remove them from the box themselves (as you hold the case in your hand and ask them to pull the tab and remove the deck).
- It can be performed almost silently right in front of them (I added a thin extra strip of felt to help here, but it can be achieved with the right touch without it).
- Did I mention it looks great in The Porcupine 🙂
A perfect utility item that I know you will love. Thanks to Joe and Paul for continuing to track down these cool items from yesteryear and bring them up to date for a select few, this is wonderful addition to your range 🙂
