Revelations Shirt

THE BLURB:
The Revelations Shirt looks just like a very cool black
t-shirt with a few hip, understated designs, but hidden in
the graphics of the shirt are SEVEN incredible revelations
including three different selected cards, the date on a
borrowed coin, a classic mathematical force, and even two
different ESP symbols! Perfect for both magicians and
mentalists, the Revelations Shirt is the ultimate secret
weapon!

FOLD #1

A card is selected and the spectator shows it to her
friends. (It's the Ace of Diamonds! Shhh!) The magician
draws attention to the intricate pattern on his hip black
t-shirt and mentions that the pattern is "a combination of a
Rorschach inkblot and a crystal ball." The audience is
skeptical, but the magician asks everyone to stare at the
pattern and concentrate on the image of the selected card.
"Do you see it on my shirt?" he asks. When everyone admits
they don't, the magician offers to "make it a little easier
to see" and with a single fold of the shirt the image of A
SINGLE LARGE DIAMOND suddenly appears!

FOLD #2

Everyone is still freaking out over the appearance of the
Ace of Diamonds shape when the magician suggests, "Let's try
it again." This time someone only PEEKS at a card (it’s the
Two of Hearts) and holds the pack in their own hands. Once
again the performer asks the spectator to concentrate on the
card they have in mind and focus on the front of the black
t-shirt. And again, with just a single quick fold of the
shirt TWO LARGE HEARTS appear!

Now everyone REALLY loses it!

THE TAG

A card is selected and the magician says, "If I don't find
your card, I'll give you the shirt off my back, okay? Don't
get too excited ladies. And just so you know, the shirt is
100% cotton, not polyester, so it's quite a prize." But when
the magician executes a fancy flourish and turns over the
top card, it's NOT the selected card. He tries again, but
again fails to find the card the spectator has in mind.
"Well, I DID say if I failed to find your card I'd give you
the shirt off my back. And like I said, it's 100% cotton.
Just take a look at the label." The performer rolls back the
collar of the shirt and pulls out the tag and everyone sees
a large image of the selected card PRINTED ON THE LABEL!

THE DATE

The date of a borrowed coin magically appears on the front
of the shirt!

Or you can have four cards selected and they turn out to be
an Ace, a 9, an 8 and a 6…all perfectly matching the 1986
date ON THE FRONT OF THE SHIRT!

THE NUMBER PREDICTION

The wonder worker admits to having "some psychic abilities"
and suggests a test. He asks a spectator to think of ANY
3-digit number and write it down on a business card or
cocktail napkin. (And it really is a free choice!) The
performer turns his back on the audience to make sure he
can't 'get a peek' and instructs the spectator to carry out
a few simple calculations with the freely selected number.
When the spectator arrives at a final total everybody
suddenly notices that the exact same number is PRINTED ON
THE BACK OF THE MAGICIAN’S T-SHIRT!

ESP FORCE #1

Using a collection of ESP symbol cards printed on the back
of the Revelations Shirt, Max Maven's classic 'Finger Chart
Force' is taken to a whole NEW LEVEL OF AMAZEMENT! Watch the
video preview to see this mind-bender in action!

ESP FORCE #2

Jay experimented for a long time trying to figure out a way
to REPEAT the "Finger Chart Force" and arrive at a DIFFERENT
symbol - and Jay figured it out! This repeat demonstration
is the ultimate psychic convincer!

THE SHIRT

Inspired by the Diesel™ brand of hip, high-end casual
clothing, each Revelations Shirt is manufactured from 100%
pure ultra cotton and the graphics are printed with a "soft
white" ink to give the shirt a hip, pre-washed and 'worn-in'
look. And the intricate design on the front of the shirt
features a very subtle combination of arrows, snakes, stars
and hieroglyphics for a very cool design that is both
universal and timeless.

Instead of being a cheap-looking shirt that shouts, "Look at
me, I'm a dorky magician!" the Revelations Shirt is the kind
of cool, goes-with-anything t-shirt that will fit right in
with your own casual style. The Revelations Shirt is also
the perfect way to show off your 'guns!'

ORDER THE RIGHT SIZE FOR YOU!

The Revelations Shirt is available only in black and in
small, medium, large and X-large sizes. To make sure you
have enough room to easily fold the front of the shirt,
please order a size that is 1 size larger than the size you
usually wear. For example, Jay is a small guy (5” 5’ and 155
lbs) and he usually wears a LARGE Revelations Shirt.

THE DVD

Along with the complete details on all 7 mind-blowing
revelations, the full-length DVD also explores such
questions as, "Is it better to reveal the hidden symbols
slowly or quickly?" And, "With mathematical forces is it
better to involve a calculator or just use pen and paper?"

Jay also shares a ton of subtle psychological pointers
learned over countless performances with the Revelations
Shirt in the real world.

The DVD also includes valuable information on:

5 COIN SWITCHES including the Bobo Switch, Thumb Palm
Switch, Palm-to-Palm Switch, Shuttle Pass Switch and Jay's
own "Perfect Coin Switch."

5 MULIPLE CARD FORCES including the Crimped Pack force,
Vernon Substitute Transfer, Riffle Force, Henry Christ Force
plus Jay's clever work on the classic Criss Cross Force that
makes it even more deceptive!

11 SINGLE CARD FORCES including the Second Deal Force,
Wichita Slip, Spread Force, Buckle Force, Double Lift Force,
Topper Peek Force, Topper Pull-Out Force, Classic Force,
Dribble Force, Mentalist's Equivoque and Jay's handling tips
with half a Forcing pack.

The Revelations Shirt! Perform just one or two of the
revelations and completely freak people out or perform
several of them together and START YOUR OWN RELIGION!

Wear your act on your back!

Whether you perform magic, mentalism or both, The
Revelations Shirt is a perfect addition to your act! Comes
complete with specially printed shirt, tag, and exciting
instructional DVD featuring a powerful collection of Jay's
favorite single and multiple card forces!

Running Time Approximately 80min

MY COMMENTS:
Sure, it's gimmicky. Sure, the tricks are "classics" or, at
least, basic. Sure, it may not be everyone's cup of tea.
But, hey, it's Jay Sankey and, like most products he
creates, it's fun. If you wear T-shirts, then I'm sure
you'll get some mileage out of this. The blurb covers
pretty much everything. If you go to Jay's website,
www.Sankeymagic.com, you'll find an online video of Jay
demonstrating this. The DVD is refreshingly complete as Jay
teaches a lot more card forces and coin switches than he
needed to.

As to the shirt itself, it's black and it comes in four
different sizes. If you watch the video, you know that some
of the revelations involve folding the material of the
shirt, so you definitely want to make sure that you order a
shirt that will be loose on you, meaning that you should
order a slightly larger size than you normally do (unless
you normally wear very loose T-shirts).
