I'm surprised there aren't so many reviews for this product despite it being such an old product and such an appraised product.

I will start off by saying I have been doing this trick since the True Astonishment set came out, and I do it at every. single. gig. So much that I've bought more than enough decks to act as backup, and so much that I have to start using mandolins for all of my routines. I love it. I do this and anniversary waltz alternatively. I love this effect, it has done me very well, and I think this is something that plays very very strong for just what is a gaffed piece of playing card.

Looks like I'm the only one reviewing the Blue colored version so far. hehe I bought this one so that's why I'm reviewing it here. Trust me. No one will notice the difference in the Mandolin back and the bicycle back. The mandolin one looks almost the same as the bicycle one anyway. As long as you don't draw too much attention to the backs, you'll be fine. It's no surprise this is Paul Harris's favorite effect. Definetly a good trick. Get yourself some sort of pocket mirror and you're ready for this trick.
