Mental Die (Milson) (India).....$10.00
A box, its top, and a single red die are shown. A chosen
spectator is given the box to hold behind their back. They are
then given the die and told to place it in the box behind their
back. Lastly, they are given the cover and told to place it on the
box concealing the die.
They are then told to bring their hands out in front of themselves
with the box resting on the palm of one hand. The performer can
then reveal in a number of ways the number that appears on the
face up side of the die!
What gives this effect a really particular punch is that the
magician apparently has at no time handled the box or die until
after the selected number is revealed.
