The Amaze Box is an excellent piece of equipment and for the working mentalist I call it
indispensible. The basic box is good, but the black box is even better and only costs $5 more. It's
an improvement because it holds a lot more billets, playing cards, business cards or anything else
small enough to switch. It's quite valuable for a Q & A act. My handling will be to get some Q&As
before the show on an impression clipboard and then put them in the black box's hidden compartment.
When the new ones are collected by the spectator, it is he or she who places them in the box and by
doing so brings the hidden compartment into position.
The only slight problem with the
original box is that the side flaps don't flatten when pressed against the velcro, but that is
easily remedied. The black box works better.
