The Blurb

POSTCARD revolutionizes mentalism by abandoning classic playing cards… and replacing them with real postcards!

Before anything even begins, a prediction is placed in full view.

You then display 8 postcards, each featuring a different country. They are freely mixed and placed face down on the table.

A spectator chooses one with absolutely no force.

To eliminate any possibility of a switch, the spectator personally signs the selected postcard.

The cards are gathered…

Suspense.

You reveal the chosen postcard along with your prediction.

They match perfectly!

Same country. Same image. Impossible.

  • No force – completely free choice
  • Signed postcard – no possibility of a switch
  • Reusable postcards
  • Handmade gimmick included

Jheff's Guide

WHAT IT IS:
A set of postcards with a few extra things to make this work.

HOW ACCURATE OR COMPLETE THE AD COPY IS:
This is a very old principle that always “sticks” the landing. It’s not revolutionary, nor is it something that “revolutionizes mentalism by abandoning classic playing cards… and replacing them with real postcards,” which mentalists and magicians have doing for years.

SETUP AND RESET:
There is a one-time setup and a bit of maintenance if this is used constantly. The reset takes but a second or two and can be done in front of participants.

ANGLES:
None

SUITABLE VENUES:
Close-up, Walkaround

JHEFF’S JUDGMENT:
This works, but there is absolutely nothing original about it. The claim that it “revolutionizes mentalism” by using postcards is simply not true, as this is a very old idea that has been used for years. The postcards are nicely produced, but the method is not new in any way. Because this is a very old idea marketed as new, I cannot recommend it, nor sell it.
