1 review for Fantasy Rising Cards by Dr. Schwartz

  1. Andy Martin –

    This effect uses the exact same method and a very similar gimmick to Richard Himber’s Solid Gold Gimmick marketed by Richard Himber c. 1957.

    Although there is no credit to Himber (which is always sad to see) Dr. Schwartz’s version does work very well and if you are one of the many who does not own the original Himber version (since there were only 100 created) this will work perfectly well in it’s place.

    There is a lot to like about this method and effect.  It is easy to do and looks very good from the spectator’s view.  The mechanism is quiet and although you certainly cannot be surrounded the angles are great from the front.  The fact that you can hand the deck to be shuffled at the beginning and handed out at the end really is a great advantage.  There are also no electronics to recharge.

    Although I’m still a Devano type of guy I could see this being a useful if you really want a clean, hands off close-up rising cards.
