Description

Original items by Richard Himber are dear and seldom seen as the effects were produced in strictly limited small quantities using the highest quality materials available such as Italian Leather and Gold & Silver.

Mr. Himber left this world far too soon in 1966 at the age of 59 and those alive today that knew him will tell you of the great loss to the magic community of one of the most colorful characters and clever minds in magic.

The magician shows two decks of cards, one a red pack in a red card box and a blue pack in a beautiful leather case. A spectator is asked to remove one red card and place it in the leather case the box is closed and tossed to a spectator and the red card on top of the blue deck in the case matches the value and suit of one blue card which is found reversed in the blue pack!

The magician then offers to repeat the trick going through the same motions only this time when the spectator opens the box there is no blue pack or red card absolutely nothing! The box is completely empty and there is no room for the deck to be concealed! Himber himself stated "Guard the box and its secret well as this will be a Collector's item".

The beautiful box is handmade of beautiful pin grain imported leather with gold corners. Cards not included as you will use your own. Includes instructions. Condition very fine.
