Red and Black - Nassif Estate
From the Estate of Nathan Nassif... This is a great story showing how a lover of the art of magic stayed with it all the way. Nate starting out as a master close-up performer (with a signature coin matrix effect). He then traversed into parlor and stage venues including a wonderfully remembered Chinese Linking Ring routine by his family & friends. As Nate aged he accepted something difficult - loosing his dexterity due to arthritis and neuropathy. Give up his love for magic - FORGETABOUT! Nate zig-zaged into collecting. Nate was the epitome of class and someone we at Stevens Magic along with his friends like Jon Wilson and family won't forget. In fact our relationship with Nathan transcended the art of magic...

This trick is completely based on Mr. Pearl's original idea, "Lumber by Mr. Pearl" still available at your favorite dealer.
A well shuffled deck of cards is shown. A coin is displayed, which is a "talisman", because it gives the person holding it a very special "insight"!
Red and black chips are then displayed. Two "marker" chips are placed on the table, one on each side.
The cards are displayed face-down one by one, the spectator expresses what he "feels": is the card red or black? The card is placed under the corresponding "marker" chip. The result is two small piles of cards, with a chip on each.
The "talisman" is handed to a second spectator, and the process is repeated.
Now for the miracle: under the black chips, there are only black cards, and under the red chips, only red cards!
And the icing on the cake:
There's a number printed on the chips: 13 on the black ones, and 17 on the red ones.
The black cards are counted... there are 13!
The red cards are counted... there are 17!
And yet it was the spectators who determined these cards... or was it the "talisman" coin?
This version of "Out of this World" is incredible.
The additional climax is unexpected and extremely powerful!
