The Blurb
Imagine a mind-reading process under completely controlled conditions! This feels like an impossible miracle of mentalism. The spectator can freely draw anything they want and thoroughly examine both envelopes. The drawing is then placed by the spectator into the first envelope, followed by the second envelope, and everything is secured with a paper clip. The best part is that the spectator can even sign the envelope, confirming that it is the same envelope with their drawing.
This effect is perfect for both working performers and those who wish to fool fellow magicians. Despite thorough inspection by the spectator, you will still have the perfect peek! The entire routine presents itself as an authentic “Test Condition” mind-reading demonstration that defies explanation. The specially designed gimmick allows for multiple variations of this mental miracle, each with its own unique handling.
The gimmick is made from a special plastic material, ensuring its durability for a long time. The method is bulletproof and cannot fail, allowing you to focus on your performance and enjoy the applause. Whether it’s in a close-up, parlor, or even larger show setting, Red Dwarf works flawlessly.
This project was inspired by the original Bob Cassidy’s White Dwarf, which revolutionized modern mentalism. Red Dwarf takes the limits of what is possible to the next level. We believe that it represents the ultimate example of how powerful mentalism should look!
Enjoy the power of Red Dwarf!

Jheff's Guide
WHAT IT IS:
Gimmick with routine(s) included
HOW ACCURATE OR COMPLETE THE AD COPY IS:
It’s accurate enough.
SET-UP AND RE-SET:
There is preparation involved with the #3 coin envelopes. This package includes an invaluable tool that allows these preparations to be made easily, effectively, and quickly. It should take a minute or so per envelope.
WHAT’S NOT INCLUDED THAT YOU NEED OR NEED TO KNOW:
You will need to obtain a small cutting blade. Also, only a few #3 coin envelopes are included. You will have to obtain more, but they are easily available from any office supply store, Amazon, etc.
SUITABLE VENUES:
Close-up, Parlor, Stage
JHEFF’S JUDGMENT:
The ad copy promotes a test-conditions, magician fooling routine that’s fine for those who like that sort of thing. It could be done much simpler. The value with RED DWARF lies in the specially made red envelope and a tool that’s included that allows you to easily make up the necessary #3 envelopes. Based on these two items, I’ll certainly recommend this as that is the value that I see for all mentalists. As for the routine, I’ll let you decide whether that fits your needs and style. If not, you can always simplify the routine to just having everything examined initially and leaving out the signature, the re-checking, the sealing, the unsealing, etc.
