THE BLURB:
From the Underground Collective (Jamie Badman and Colin
Miller), the creators of Heirloom, one of the best-selling
tricks of the last decade, comes a miracle that elevates
things to a whole new level. Legacy is the kind of trick we
search for as magicians. It's self-contained, can be carried
with you at all times, and it automatically performs an
astounding trick that also let's you give a compelling
presentation. They get to know YOU and YOUR MAGIC during the
effect.
The effect is simple: a story of your grandfather's greatest
magic trick, performed using his original props. You remove
a poker hand from his old wallet and have someone think of
one of the cards in the hand. You then show that even from
the grave, your grandfather knew exactly which one the
participant freely picked.
Legacy is an easy to perform, completely sleight-free
routine that comes with a custom-made soft-leather wallet,
pre-aged props and a collection of strong routines to suit a
variety of styles. This is a blockbuster effect that you
will be proud to carry with you.
Includes custom leather wallet and specially printed
gimmicks.
MY COMMENTS:
"[E]levates things to a whole new level"? HEIRLOOM, which
is a version of Kenton Knepper's KOLOSSAL KILLER, predicts
one out of 52 cards. I'm not sure how predicting one out of
5, instead of one out of 52, is taking this to a whole new
level, unless, of course, the methodology was new and
unique. Which it isn't.
Let me get right to the point of this. There's absolutely
nothing wrong with this effect, but there's also absolutely
nothing new here, either. Think Andy Nyman's KILLER ELITE
only with a poker hand and you should be able to deduce this
very basic Modus Operandi (emphasis on the M and O).
The package includes a pocket-sized Himber wallet, the
photographs, and the high quality, aged-looking playing
cards. And I was refreshingly surprised to see that this
effect does NOT have an instructional DVD, but three pages
of printed instructions with illustrations.
Yes, this does deal with playing cards and I know that some
people will pass on this simply because of that. It is easy
to do, it does re-set instantly, and there are no angle
problems. So long as you know what you're getting, if you
know you can use it, then this is worth purchasing.
