The Blurb
THE SPECTRUMALIST by WAYNE DOBSON AND WORLD MAGIC SHOP INCLUDES DEVILISHLY CLEVER PROPS AND PERFORMANCE RIGHTS LICENCE
From the ‘Professional Television Routines Series,’ with all rights included, World Magic Shop in association with DTrik present THE SPECTRUMALIST.
THE SPECTRUMALIST is not only one of the most baffling mentalism routines ever created, it is 100% commercial. The audience participation ensures great entertainment value from start to finish in this six-minute routine, culminating in six separate applause cues.
You invite a volunteer to assist you with your mind reading. This could be the CEO of the company, the birthday boy or girl or the Best Man at a wedding. Each of five volunteers then choose random objects, with no force at all. These are placed into bags and mixed thoroughly. As you, the performer, remove each object from the bag, in any random order, your mind-reading volunteer is able to determine to whom each object belongs. As the final revelations are made, five applause cues are guaranteed as well as huge round of applause for your mind-reading assistant who feels like A STAR!
Use any objects! Balls, Coins, Cards, Photographs… Literally anything that fits in the small bags.
THE SPECTRUMALIST — A perfect, fully-scripted routine that packs so small and yet can fill the largest of stages.

JHEFF’S JUDGMENT:
This version of Maurice Fogel’s “Second Spot,” a classic of mentalism that every mentalist should have and be able to perform, provides some well-made bags in addition to the controversial twist in the presentation. If you need a good set of “Second Spot” bags, if you need an effect for special occasions that showcase someone special, and/or you’re comfortable performing mental magic, then I’d highly recommend this for you.
