Cardless

Page 2
Page 3
deck of cardsThe magician asks the spectator to select a card, remove it from the deck, commit its suit and value to memory and return it to the deck. The magician shuffles the cards, then places the deck back into the card case, commenting the next part works best in the dark, as far as the cards are concerned.

After a suitable mystical gesture over the cased cards, he picks up the card case and tilts it so the deck drops into his hand. He gives the spectator the cards, asking him to remove his selected card.

The spectator looks through the deck, but is unable to find his card.

The magician asks the spectator to pick up the card case and look inside of it. The spectator does so and finds one card, the card he originally selected.

Cardless is a subtle gaff that can be used to create the effect described as well as others where a card needs to be temporarily removed from the deck. The secret is a slight modification of the card case which stops the top or bottom card of the deck from falling out when the case is opened and turned opening down.

The Card Case Gaff

A faint pencil line is drawn
on the inside of the case
just above the top of the cards.
Two rectangular strips of card are coated at one end with white paper paste. Then positioned left and right of the circular sticker indention, the bottom of the each strip lined up with the pencil line.

card case.
This creates a narrow stop the height of one card on each side of the circular sticker indention.
