Discover a striking illusion inspired by the famous Indian Box, reimagined for close-up magic.

This ultra-visual, fast-paced routine is designed to create a powerful moment that spectators will remember. Show two playing cards — both folded in half. Insert one into a small container (a card case, matchbox, phone case, cigarette case—or any everyday object) and place the other behind it. In a split second, the two cards instantly switch places right before the spectator's eyes.

Finish strong by handing the cards out as memorable souvenirs that can be examined and given away, making the effect both baffling and practical for performers who want lasting impact.

Highlights:

• Ultra-visual and instant — perfect for creating a jaw-dropping moment
• Works with everyday objects for a natural, impromptu feel
• Cards are examinable and can be given away as souvenirs
• Ideal for close-up, street magic, and walk-around performances

Includes:

• Ready-to-use gimmick to simplify handling and focus on performance
• Detailed video instructions to learn the handling, timing, and presentation

This routine is tailored for card magicians and close-up performers who want a compact, high-impact trick that travels easily and integrates smoothly into real-world settings. Perfect for walk-around work, table-hopping, or intimate performance situations where immediacy and examinability matter.
