 Mr. Mysterio's disappearing 16th card trick... August 18, 2008
Stephen (Canada)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I'm surprised that none of the previous reviews mentioned Mr. Mysterio's missing 16th card trick. As you will note in the product description..."The kit also contains a set of 16 "gimmicked" cards, including - An Eight of Clubs that makes a matchstick levitate!" Well, no such trick is included. The booklet states that 16 gimmicked cards are enclosed, and then proceeds to describe only 15 such cards - omitting the gimmicked 8 of clubs. The trick is simply not mentioned anywhere in the booklet. I checked the publisher's site, and it has the same product description as Amazon. It also has a page preview link - guess which page it calls up - yes, the "Eight of Clubs that makes a matchstick levitate!" page. I guess the trick was part of the package when first released.
If you're interested in how the trick is done, here's the link to the publisher's site:

Excellent for Beginners April 28, 2008
Drue Klinowski (Baltimore, MD United States)

This deck is perfect for beginners who want to learn a few tricks. The 52 card "stripped" deck is well made and makes some of the more popular card tricks (included in the booklet) very easy to learn and repeat. The gimmicked cards are also well crafted and seem to hold up over time and use. Beginners will find the instructions/illustrations are well written/drawn which makes learning fun and gets you going with these tricks very quickly*. If you are more advanced with card magic you will find this entire set a breeze. This set is as good as any you might find in a magic shop. It is nice to see a well made set with multiple tricks all in one neat package at a reasonable price. Buying these tricks individually would prove tedious and expensive. Once you have mastered this deck, then learn all of the "stripped" deck tricks with a "normal" deck...then you'll be on your way!
*Learning some basic card handling and sleight of hand will make these tricks EVEN MORE impressive!
 Surprisingly Good June 10, 2006

Didn't expect much out of this one, but it actually turned out to be a great deck for anyone who wants to do magic. It has 16 great 'gimmicked' cards, and a full 52 card 'stripper' deck, that enables you to do great tricks. It also comes with a very thick instruction book, written by 'Mr. Mysterio', a magicicain from the 20's. There is also something of a plot line to the instruction book, with funny intruductions to the tricks. If your a beggenner or an advanced magician, this an amazing buy!
