"I loved this trick as soon as I saw it, over twenty years ago. I've performed it regularly to great reactions, yet no one else seems to be doing it. It is almost self working and the surprise ending is pure bafflingly magic. Plus it provides a great motivation for a deck switch if your next routine requires a special deck." - Monster Magic Review

Transform a signed card into an impossible object-that your spectator gets to keep!

You display both sides of a small printed Instruction Card for "The World's Greatest Card Trick" which you just received in today's mail and offer to try it out with the spectator's help. As you read off each step, the spectator follows the instruction. The instructions guide the spectator to select a playing card from a shuffled deck, sign its face, replace it in the deck and finally wrap the deck up in rubber bands, "magician-proofing" the pack. The spectator's signed selection remains in full view the entire time until it's cleanly buried in the deck. The spectator wraps the deck herself and then drops it into your jacket pocket.

The final instruction is then read, but it simply says "magically produce the card." Undaunted, you make a magical gestured over the Instruction Card-which you've been holding in plain view since the very beginning of the trick and when you turn it around, the other side is shown to have magically changed into the spectator's selected card, complete with their signature!

The Instruction Card is immediately given to the spectator to keep as a souvenir. It's an "impossible object" which she'll keep forever, a personalized memento of the time she witnessed "The World's Greatest Card Trick."

Memorable, humorous and totally baffling,
Easy to do (only one sleight required!),
Leaves the spectator with a permanent, personalized, impossible object
Side-Swiped comes with a detailed, 29-page booklet, fully illustrated by Tony Dunn which includes Simon's professional presentation and additional comments and variations along with enough cards specially printed by the US Playing Card Co. for 12 performances.

So much fun !

I can’t believe I hadn’t come across this before, it’s a classic. I think it’s one of the best effects out there to be honest. I’ve done it a number of times since getting it and the reactions are astonishing. It’s an effect you involve the spectator with all the time and that’s brilliant - the instructions you get also are really detailed on how to play this effect out. It works a dream. It’s almost self working too.

Brilliant Effect

With one easy, semi-bold, move, this is a brilliant trick. The old ones are the best….even if Craig Petty’s taken it further with Magic Button.
