Jumping Card by Douglas-Wayne Illusioneering

On page 130 of Modern Magic Professor Hoffman described The Jumping Cards. Douglas-Wayne Illusioneering created this beautiful reproduction staying true to Professor Hoffman’s description. If you hold this just right the cards can jump 3 to 6 inches above the top of the opening. It all depends on the angle of the cards and the direction of the base. It is a great little prop and a nice suprise. I included a deck of Faro Vintage looking cards to add to the overall feel of the Professor Hoffman history of this piece and they look and work perfectly for this effect. _EF This is a very well made and beautiful box from Douglas-Wayne Illusioneering which works perfectly. A card is chosen, the cards are placed in the houlette and then suddenly the chosen card jumps out! Its easy to do, and what is cool is that although the box cannot be shown inside it can be shown all around and there is nothing to see.
