Card Changing Frame (Enchanted Card Slide) by Eddy Taytelbaum
(c. 1970) (Submit Review) (Submit Update)This effect was originally invented by Professor Nishan Andounian and sold and marketed c. 1929 by Joe Berg at Joe’s Princess Magic Shop in Chicago. The original name was called: Enchanted Card Slide and it has been made by many since then and is an amazing little device.
Most of Eddy Taytelbaum’s line of handcrafted mini-magic is made in plastic, but the quality is unsurpassed, the work of a true craftsman. This is all wood construction and beautifully painted in semi-glossy black with a gold trimming..very elegant, first class prop. This one is very thin, has a open space in the middle, and the card to be changed slides in and out of the open box frame. Yes, a “flap” is used as in the more common card boxes, but deceptively hidden on this Taytelbaum piece.
Effect: A most original and novel way to disclose a selected card. The performer shows what turns out to be the wrong card, so to set himself right the magician places the card face down into the slide, as per illustration. He then states that he will cause the card to change to the proper selected card, which may be removed from the slide by the spectator. Both cards and slide can be passed for examination.

This is the second Taytelbaum item I have acquired and I am now starting to understand the reason behind the demand for his magic. This, as all Taytelbaum pieces I acquire, is stored with my Warner collection in a special place separate from my main magic collection as a honor to these two greats.
