"Vanishing card case is a classic effect bought bang up to date and the visuals are so much better! I need one of these!! So organic! Love it." - Chris Congreave

"A clever, clean and class effect! A great way to open, close or just a fun effect to put into your close up act! I want one!" - Nikola Arkane

"I love this! So clever and So deceptive. A classic reborn" - Roddy McGhie

"When I saw the vanish, I felt immediately transported to being 5 years old, seeing the original version. Nicholas has created the perfect visual evolution of the classic effect, built into an item we are all familiar with. And the routines included make this a justified, interesting prop, which is a revolution in and of itself! I'm super excited to begin using this in my close up set!" - Judah Gabriel

The card clip you carry to protect your precious pasteboards is now a utility device for vanishes, transformations, and even teleportations. Your everyday carry just got a whole lot more magical. A classic revamped as only Nicholas Lawrence could, this is The Vanishing Card Case.

Here’s what happens:

You take a deck of cards out of your pocket and show that it is encased in a sturdy clip to keep them protected from the rigors of everyday life. You take the box out of the clip offering a little challenge to your spectators. Can they name the color of the card guard? Black. They are correct. Can they name the color of the deck? Red. They are once again correct. The cards are placed back in the guard, and for the final question, did they see the cards jump? That’s when you open your hands to reveal that the cards have completely vanished and reappeared in your pocket. Then, you can go into your favorite routines.

The Vanishing Card Case is an update to a classic effect found in magic shops all over the world. Card clips are fast becoming standard accessories for anyone familiar with playing cards or gambling, so this specially gimmicked clip has been designed to be simple and elegant while hiding a crazy secret. The gimmicked box and tutorial from Craig Petty give you several full routines ready to perform. Use the gimmick to make the cards vanish, change color, and even teleport at your command. Use it as a single moment in a longer routine or as a quick flashy vanish. No matter your style of performance The Vanishing Card Case will earn a home in your pocket.
