Trojan Deck – by Joshua Jay

Description

The “Trojan Deck” from Vanishing Inc. and Card-Shark comes straight from Joshua Jay’s successful off-Broadway show *Six Impossible Things* to your home, and is as close to the “holy grail” of card magic as you can get. At its core, it offers the perfect combination of beautiful directness and breathtaking power. So much so that it almost seems too good to be true. Two different decks are shuffled. The audience shuffles theirs. They shuffle the other one. In the end, both decks match. However, the ‘Trojan Deck’ is so much more than just another magic trick. It is an ingenious and versatile gimmick that has been carefully designed to allow you to perform a wide variety of magic tricks in the living room and up close. If you work with a memorised deck of cards, you can also use it to perform card tricks with a memorised stack from a shuffled deck. Magicians will also love to hear that the Trojan Deck is surprisingly easy to perform. There are no sleights involved and the handling is basically foolproof. There is no deck switch either. The decks don’t even have to ‘touch’ to perform a secret sleight of hand. They are separated the whole time. ‘Trojan Deck’ solves many of the problems associated with similar effects. There are no complicated methods or mathematical processes that can easily be messed up. You also don’t have to worry about elaborate audience control, as the spectators can really shuffle the deck at will. Since this has been Josh’s closing effect for years, these details were extremely important to him. But they’re not even the best part. For Joshua, the best part of ‘Trojan Deck’ is the limitless presentation possibilities it offers. As Joshua tells a touching story about how his parents met, you can present the Trojan Deck however you want.

“Among the purest, prettiest, most impossible card effects I’ve ever seen. Joshua Jay has a gift for creating neo-classics. And this will be the next one.”
Rune Klan

“It’s not often a performer chooses to release material that is strong enough to close a show and elicit standing ovations. Joshua Jay is making a habit of doing exactly that. ‘Trojan Deck’ is a great trick. However, more than this it is an exciting tool to bring many new, exciting and radically fooling ideas to life. Its method is one I have enjoyed exploring and applying far and wide ever since I learned it. I think you will too.”
