Camouflage by Magic Ronnay, Emerson and West

Effect: You explain that making things appear to be what they are not might be called “magic” but in the military, it’s called “Camouflage.” You demonstrate this with six box cars (cards) and then to everybody’s surprise, (including yours, perhaps) the cars turn out to be something else. Comes with all the cards, case and instructions.

This consists of a series of truly magical effects in which four identical cards with same faces and backs and four different cards with identical faces and backs do the craziest change about, intermix on their own and eventually the backs have totally different color designs. I can tell you, it will drive you crazy, until you get the hang of it, at least it did to me. If you keep at it, you’ll suddenly see it happen and, believe me, it will puzzle the onlooker. It comes with the necessary cards, specially printed, full instructions and patter, condensed cue card,all in a vinyl case.
