The Blurb
NEW IMPROVED EDITION WITH IMPROVED MARKING SYSTEM!
You spoke, we listened! This is the third generation of Beyond ESP. It actually a 2.0 as the markings have been enlarged to make them even easier to read while still being totally invisible to the non-informed.
Take a look at the images and see if you can spot the markings. Believe it or not, they ARE MARKED.
After selling a whopping 15,000 copies of Michael Murray’s Beyond ESP deck, he decided to revisit the highly acclaimed marking system in order to make it even easier to read. The results are remarkable! Whilst still remaining stealthily secret, you will be able to read the marks no matter if you are standing at a distance or working close-up in low light situations.
“Outstanding!”
– Richard Osterlind
“Awesome!”
– Lee Earle
“The best set of Marked ESP cards I have ever seen!”
– Nicholas Einhorn
These are just a few of the comments we received upon the launch of the Beyond ESP deck, an aesthetic leap forward to the tried and tested ESP packs.
First and foremost – this is the most innocent-looking deck of ESP cards you will ever own. The plain black backs make the cards look like little else than research tools, yet they contain an incredibly subtle marking system that allows you to identify each card with a short glance.
Housed inside the “International Paranormal Research Association” box are two complete ESP or Zener decks. One red-backed deck, and one original black-backed deck. The new cards have been printed to the highest standard by the US Playing Card Company, so they look and feel great. Inside your deck you’ll also find a selection of extra cards and fakes, providing you with more creative possibilities than any other ESP deck on the market.
For those who might be short of ideas, Beyond ESP 3 comes compete with a 32-page booklet containing 8 solid routines from a collection of mentalism’s top authors including Lee Earle, Banachek, and Richard Osterlind.
The result is a startling collection of ESP routines and ideas, which can often be difficult to track down, all between the covers of one booklet. Coupled with the ground-breaking Beyond ESP cards, this is guaranteed to be one purchase that will amount to far more than the sum of its parts!
