Ben Harris is a creative mastermind that has offered countless invaluable contributions to the magic community over his impressive lifetime in magic. Yet, his latest project, Symmetry & Parity, is quite possibly his best work to date.

Symmetry & Parity exemplifies the immense power we can possess as magicians when we take the time to understand an effect in its most basic form. With this innovative kit, you get a stunning book, three specially-made decks unavailable anywhere else, and a custom-made gimmicked card box, that have all been custom-designed to help elevate the principles of a classic gimmicked deck into something infinitely more incredible.

With this project, Ben showcases the power of stripping a classic principle down to its bare bones. By uncovering weaknesses and adding new layers of deception, Ben has significantly enhanced the potential of the principles behind the criminally-overlooked Svengali Deck we all know and love.

Ben's method for allowing your audience to seemingly shuffle the gaffed deck is a stroke of pure genius that would be worth the price of this book on its own. However, Symmetry & Parity goes so much further. You'll learn an array of new ways to use the amazing included decks and special gimmicked card box. This includes a jaw-dropping color-changing deck routine with three color changes, a full deck Oil and Water, and a multi-phased card routine that is sure to fool even your most knowledgeable magician friends.

The stunning 130-page, full-color hardcover book, three USPCC gimmicked decks and special handmade gimmicked card box come packaged in an equally beautiful box set that will look great on display in any home.

Loved the Book Report this review

The book was very well written, I literally opened it, and couldn't put it down. It's alot of magic for 75 dollars, the hard back book, 3 decks of gimmicked playing cards, and a gimmick card box, all of it in a very nice display box, for 75 dollars, that's amazing. I would definitely recommend it.

Excellent effects from old classics Report this review

Great packaging and a nicely presented easy-to-follow book (even though mine had a dirty big thumbprint on the inside cover - no biggy but worth mentioning).

The tricks are all easy to accomplish for a beginner but my only gripe is that the 3rd stage of the Tardian effect is different from the video performance I first watched of Ben Harris. A small point, but changing from a dribble/cutting method to the thumb riffle, gives the audience a hint in my opinion (unless 'I' missed something). All in all a great product and a good icebreaker for all levels of magicians.

Highly recommended!
