Reflex Card Case by Fun Inc.

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.

This is a cheap version of the effect but works fine. A more impressive version by Eddy Taytelbaum is the Card Changing Frame.

Effect: A card is selected and returned to the deck. Magician removes one card from the deck and places it face-down inside the card case. The case has a window running through the center so the card is visible at all times. The case is turned around so the face can be seen and the spectator is asked if that is the selected card. The magician seems surprised when the answer is “No” but he merely gives the case a tap and the card visibly changes to the correct card.
