Visible Santa Painting by Unknown, John Breeds

This is copy of John Breeds’ Visible Picture Painting sold and developed by Geoff Maltby of Repro Magic c. 1979 and not the Supreme effect called Instant Art.

The big distinction is that in John Breeds version the painting changes to full color visually as opposed to under cover. The overall final effect is similar but the big leap forward is the visual change. John originated the effect c. 1967 when he was a technical training instruction teaching color TV principles; the effect was a visual aid for his students.

Richard Stupple provides the routine for the Repro Magic version. John Breeds details this trick in his book: How To Create Kids’ Magic and Triple Your Income!

Effect: Black and white drawing changes to dazzling colors and magical transformations take place as you lift the insert out of the frame. The wooden frame looks like a real picture frame and the bright large graphics look amazing.

This is the performers dream effect. Outstanding visual magic! Packs flat! Plays big. Priced right!
