The Three Shell Game

"Never has there been such an artistic, classy approach to The Three Shell Game. The shells are a work of art. They are one of the best sets of shells for the "The Three Shell Game."
‾ Joe Stevens, Stevens' Magic Emporium.

We make these shells out of a hybrid plastic, cleaned and painted personally by Black Fox. The shells are sprayed with at least eight coats of a matte finish. The peas are made from a polyurethane rubber.

 

The Scarabs are sprayed with four coats of a Metallic finish and pin-striped by hand. Four coats of a clear finish are applied, then they are "antiqued", and four more coats of a clear finish are applied to seal everything. These shells are very durable, but should be handled with care! They should be carried in the bag supplied, or in something else to protect them.
Shells should not be dropped or scraped on a hard surface, as this could damage the finish or paint. Black Fox is not responsible for damage caused by misuse, but will fix or refurbish shells for a small fee plus shipping charges.

Black Fox Master Walnut Shells These shells have a rocking action built into the bottom, which helps facilitate the loading and stealing of the pea. This design was inspired by the "Jack Channin Shells", in which you put your own "Channin Dip". My shells are perfectly balanced for undetectable steals and loads. The pea can be loaded and stolen from either end of the shell. There is no "traditional indent" in the back of the shell. These are absolutely the best shells for The Three Shell Game, and can be used on any surface with no "talk" from the shells. For the working professional or for those who just want the best on market!

The "Gypsy Finger" The Performer asks the spectator to remove the four Queens & Kings from the deck and thoroughly mix them. After the cards are mixed, the performer asks the spectator to place them on the table, face down one at a time. The performer then uses the "Gypsy Finger" to divine the sex of the cards. Suddenly the finger swings both in a circle and in straight line. The performer correctly selects the King of Clubs stating; "Oh this must be the King of Clubs, he swings both ways." Very clear routine & easy to do! "Gypsy Finger" even comes with leather strap! A unique bit of Mentalism This prop can be applied to other mental illusions where objects are picked by divination. Comes with mummified looking finger on deerskin cord and detailed instructions and routine $15.00
The "Hec-ow-wee Compass" The Storyteller displays an odd shaped, bone-looking disk that hangs from his neck on a deerskin cord, calling the object a "Hec-ow-wee Compass". He then removes it from the cord and shows that there is an arrow on each side pointing in the same direction. As he tells the story of how the "Hec-ow-wees" got their name, he revolves the disk between his fingers and magically the arrows first point in opposite directions, then point in ninety degree angles to each other. Toward the end of the story, the arrows are again pointing in the same direction. All of which happens right in front of their eyes! The "Hec-ow-wee Compass" is self-working! There is no sleight-of-hand involved! A tried-and- true, mind-boggling effect! Comes with: "Hec-ow-wee" Compass on a deerskin thong and instructions $15.00
"Eggcessory"   At the end of the magician's egg bag routine, the magician tells the audience, "The egg is either in my pocket (magician demonstrates these actions) or in the bag." The magician sticks his hand, with the egg, in his pocket once more, saying, "The egg is in my pocket, and now it is in the bag." Magician slowly and visibly places the egg in the bag. He asks the audience where the egg is, they respond "In the bag!" The magician shakes his head no and produces the egg from his pocket. All the while, he has been holding the "egg" through the material of the bag high in the air. The magician then reaches into the bag slowly and, with an open hand, produces a full shot of whiskey, he then pulls out a full bottle of whiskey and hands it all out for examination. There is no sleight-of-hand involved! Very easy to do! Shot glass is loaded right in front of audience! Optional Whiskey bottle or other load is obtained with plenty of misdirection!   White "Eggcessory": Solid Matching Egg, shot glass, and instructions Each set: $30.00 Brownish "Eggcessory": Solid Matching Egg, shot glass, and instructions Bluish "Eggcessory": Solid Matching Egg, shot glass, and instructions
