An extremely efficient, practical, easy and stunning approach to the classic “Cards Across” plot for close-up or stage conditions.
Four red-backed cards are displayed; they’re counted and held by a spectator. Another set of blue-backed cards is shown, and a second spectator simply thinks of any one. The packets are held by the spectators, who stand far apart from each other.
With the utmost fairness, the mentally chosen card vanishes from the blue packet and appears in the red!

- Steve Dusheck's Vial-A-Tion (Air Ship Magic)
The performer takes out a clear, lidded vial with a normal copper penny inside. The performer removes the trapped penny in the vial and asks the spectator to affix a small label to it and mark the label. The performer then fumbles through his pants or jacket pocket and pulls out a Kennedy Half dollar and place the Penny a top the 1/2 dollar. To completely trap the marked penny the performer then takes the clear vial and places it over top the penny and 1/2 dollar, trapping the penny between the half dollar an inside the vial. Everything is visible to the spectator at all times.
The performer explains the Penny is now trapped, and tells the spectator he will case the marked Penny to vanish. The performer places his hand around the vial and lifts it away, but the signed penny is still there, and instead the Kennedy half dollar has vanished and turned into an English Penny and the marked Penny is still sitting on top of the new coin! The spectator can pick up both coins without the performer ever touching them. The performer can show the vial afterwards without any switching. I've tested this on over a dozen spectators and all are amazed, this is truly a visual change. I let the spectator keep the signed Penny as a keepsake sake of the performance.
There are NO difficult sleights, magnets, threads, duplicate coins or duplicate labels used. This is truly visually stunning.
Everything you need is included, including some small round label sheets to get you started. If you like you can have the spectator mark the actual Penny with a Sharpie and skip the labels.

- Color Changing Ball to Jumbo Square
ou place a red sponge ball in your hand and make it mysteriously vanish and re-appear in your pocket. Now, you attempt to perform the vanish again... but, since your spectator has just seen you perform the exact same vanish, he believes he knows how the trick is done...
He points out that the ball is concealed in one of your hands. You look a bit puzzled and open the guilty hand. The ball is seen to have changed into a large square. You open your other hand to reveal a black ball. Impossible! The spectator always thinks he's on to you, but he's always wrong because there is no red ball... it's back in your pocket.
Take your bows--you have just performed an impossible-looking miracle. This is a clever, quick sponge routine.
