First off, we will let the video do the talking.

Like the legendary Cups and Balls, the 3 Shell Game has a rich history that can be traced back to the 1670s.

Like the infamous 3 Card Monte, this gambling swindle has also long fascinated magicians and has been brought from the streets to the Magician's stage to be performed for entertainment and educational purposes.

The 3 Shell Game was initially performed with real walnut shells. More recently, shells of different shapes, styles, and materials were manufactured especially for magicians.

We believe that a good set of Shells should have the following qualities:

  • It should be of a suitable weight. Not too heavy, but heavy enough to firmly cover the pea.
  • It should facilitate the steal of the pea.
  • The 3 shells should look identical to add to the deception.
The above qualities do exist in sets available on the market today. However, you would have needed to shell out (pun intended) large amounts of money for a set of quality shells.

TCC Presents - The 3 Shells.
  • Made of solid brass
  • Beautiful antique finish for that classic retro look.
  • Hefty and has a nice weight for better handling.
  • Smooth edges allow the shells to glide effortlessly across your performing surface.
  • Through countless research and experimentation, the peas you get are the perfect size and density.
  • Affordable, yet, of exquisite quality.
  • Easy to carry. It comes with a flannel carrying bag that fits the shells, peas, and even a shot glass if your routine requires it.
  • Full instructions is included.

(This review is for 3 SHELLS by TCC)
My first major purchase of tcc products had its distractions. The shells however did not. I’m a complete novice to this study and besides a week of Bob Sheets on the pitch or the street hustler with coke cap for shells I have very limited knowledge of other sets.
Routine is a solid starter I like the shells, might buy other peas.
Doc holiday sells a download of the same routine. No patter is provided with TCC or real world performance.

3 Shells by TCC Report this review

I just received my purchase today, 8/13/22. For the price the Shells and pea meet or exceed my expectations. I love the quality and the beautiful sound the shells make when you hit them together. I am looking forward to watching the Tutorial. Very pleased with my purchase. Although the weight of the shells are a little heavy.. I believe with some practice the weight will be just right. I highly recommend this seet for both Professionals and Amateurs.

Something Different Report this review

This is not the usual cups & balls, it's a little bit of C&B and a little bit of The Old Shell Game.
The equipment is top notch, plus a nice case.

The vide is done well and the staff at Penquin Magic were a great help.

As always, I was very happy with my purchase

Beautiful set, doesn't work Report this review

I was looking forward to this set because I've had a good experience with TCC projects.

Simply put, the peas are too hard and the shape/weight of the shells means steals and loads had a distinct "thud". I gave them a week and tried several different surfaces - they just didn't work.

Too bad, they looked nice . . .
