Manipulate your audience’s mind to produce a picture that they have only been thought of. This diabolical trick from the devilishly clever Dan Harlan is an amazing piece of mentalism that plays well in a formal performance and a casual setting. Your audiences will discover the perfect picture in Photo Finish by Dan Harlan.

Here’s what happens:

The performer gives the audience a stack of photographs that has been cut into small pieces. The spectator freely mixes the pieces of photos any way they want. The magician then tells the spectator that they are going to perform a sort of photo recall. The magician describes a vivid image and then has the spectator sort the pieces of the photos while they are face down into four piles. The top of each pile is turned face up, and impossibly the spectator has managed to assemble all four pieces of the image the magician described.

Photo Finish comes complete with all of the props needed to perform this amazing routine. It’s part mentalism, part magic, and all-around amazing for your audience members. In addition to the props, you will receive expert instructions from Dan Harlan on how to perform this wonderful trick with minimal sleight of hand. The best part is that your spectator does all the work. This effect is more than a revelation. This is Photo Finish by Dan Harlan.

This is so good. The only trick I have bought recently where after learning ( within minutes) you want to chuck out the cards you receive and make up your own photos. I didn’t realise you can order paper photos online via app practically free of charge. This trick is perfect for customisation for corporate work, weddings is an obvious one with a photo of the happy couple…. or bizarre. It’s got so May applications. Well done Penguin people !

I will be the first one to say it. The set of photos you receive is not the same as in the trailer. I think this is important to know, as I mainly bought the effect for the actual reveal of a little girl playing the piano as in the trailer.
I got this effect to be a part of a bigger, spooky show, about a little girl.
It should have been mentioned in the ad that you receive a different set of photos.
For 99% of people, this will not be an issue, but for me, it is.
Also, I don't live in the US, so finding the exact card stock as I received the other photos in, could be challenging. Or, I need to find and print another 10 photos which will just add to the actual cost of the effect.
Again, not an issue for most, but it could have been avoided altogether with one line in the product page.
I'm probably the only one who got it for the photo and not for the method :)

Surprised Me And Now My Favorite Act Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 28th, 2022
Use this to get corporate gigs. Or, buy an insta print camera and print out your audience member’s photo to have them magically perform this trick with a story about finding your true love (yourself). This trick takes an old principle used with cards and expands it to something as personal and unique as photos. If you are not familiar with the principle then as an added bonus you will learn a principle that you can then add to card tricks or ESP cards. So, you really are getting three tricks instead of one. Dan asked us to write a review. Yes. But, this trick IS that good and merits my taking the time to compliment Dan on really great work. Keep it coming Dan!

Love this Report this review

The nicest part of this effect is that it is simple to perform and will blow people's minds as it is customizable to whatever situation you may be in. Even before I received my deck, I made another personalized deck. For example ,as suggested, I made a deck in which the last photo set was the guest and told him to picture an event in his life that he would like to return to. The final set was a photo of him as a young man on a date with a young woman. Since he is a good sport and gay, it created a hilarious moment for all at this party. this is why this is a great purchase and Dan Harlan has created another great twist on this effect which seemingly is well known. Not so fast.

A refreshing update to a old routine, but a box of some sort would really have been a nice touch to protect the cards instead of a ziplock bag.

Great Trick! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 1st, 2022
It’s simple. It uses an old but powerful force that’s really easy to do. Spectators are amazed by it. And because you can personalize it, it really hits them in a way that no ordinary card trick can. Get it!

Such a great effect! This is one of those tricks where your presentation and the amazing magic can blow people away. I plan on using the exact photo he did for the reveal because it looks SO similar to a photo of my daughter around the same age.

Great principle for Spirit messages Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 3rd, 2024
Although I didn't use the provided picture cards. I enjoyed using the principle of the trick. I used alphabet cards to spell out a message from a spirit in a seance setting. Very clever idea.

Bonne idée pour varier votre show Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 22nd, 2023
Tour facile
Il existe Plusieurs façons autres que celle de Dan pour produire la photo choisie, perso j’en utilise une de Dai Vernon
L’intérêt principal est d’amener de la variation à votre spectacle de cartes grâce à l’utilisation de photos .
Je vais les imprimer au format de quatre cartes bicycle pour pouvoir les ranger dans une boîte bicycle
17,7 cms x 12,5 cms
Mais merci pour l’idée…les photos ça change des classiques cartes de poker
