Think of a Card Box
by Mario Marchese

Mario's Magical Creations: a vintage-inspired series.

New York-based magician and tinkerer Mario Marchese, a.k.a. Mario the Magician, has spent his downtime over the past couple of years crafting beautiful, vintage-inspired close-up magic illusions from found objects and re-purposed materials. Mario's favorite creations, chosen especially with Tannen's Magic loyalists in mind. These are truly works of art, intricate and intriguing. Each item is made-to-order and completely handmade, so you will receive a collector's item that is uniquely yours and one-of-a-kind (design of box or tin will vary).

The magician shuffles and cuts a deck of cards. He shows that the cards all mixed up. Showing the faces of the cards, the magician asks a spectator to think of one card. The magician presents the Think of a Card Box, and requests a quarter to turn on the apparatus. The magician points out a handle on the side of the box, and explains that upon turning it, "your card" will rise out of the machine. Before turning the handle, the magician asks the spectator to name his thought-of card. The magician turns the handle, and one card rises. The magician turns the card over to reveal "YOUR CARD" printed in bold letters. After the joke, the magician turns the box around and shows a red "emergency switch," which he presses. An envelope pops out of the machine. He opens the envelope and pours the contents into a wine glass. The thought-of card falls right out for all to see!
