Your audience will be convinced they’re holding a genuine relic, not some dodgy knock-off.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFacsimile is, quite simply, the book test with a real book. You get to perform MULTIPLE word revelations on ANY page of the book. It’s as fair and random as a game of bingo (minus the shouting and questionable snacks).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe basic three-word effect goes like this:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFlick through the book and get them to say STOP wherever they fancy, instructing them to remember a word on that page. Without any fishing or memory gymnastics, you’ll know exactly what word they’re thinking of and can reveal it however you fancy (no pressure!).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeeling bold? Hand the book over to them, let them pick ANY page they like, and instruct them to remember another word. Once again, you’ll nail the word they’re thinking of like a pro.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd if that’s not enough, you can even divine a THIRD word, whether it’s on the same page or a different one. You’ll know it instantly! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe new 2.0 editions still pack all those original features but now come with larger text for improved visibility (because squinting isn’t a good look), an extra mid-page word reveal, and the ability to know how much speech is on a page or if it’s just plain text, plus the number of paragraphs. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll these added features give you even more options to play with in your routine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the second or third phase, you can even predict their chosen word using an envelope that’s been in play before they’ve even cracked open the book. (Yes, it’s as impressive as it sounds.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book is fully examinable before, during, and after.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou can read the entire novel from cover to cover!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo duplicate pages or Svengali nonsense here.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo forces – it’s a completely free choice of page.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo fishing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo memory work required.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou can even perform it without handling the book yourself (which is great if you’re feeling a bit lazy).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLearn the whole thing in minutes!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt’s suitable for both stand-up and close-up performances, so you’re covered no matter how you roll.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMore advanced options are even taught, allowing for minimal fishing and memory work for some presentations. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIncluded in the package is the book and online instructions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Study in Scarlet, Turn of the Screw, and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde are approximately 107mm x 175mm. These little gems fit snugly in your jacket pocket, making them fantastic for close-up performers and walk-arounds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you fancy something for stage or parlor, we’ve got larger options like Frankenstein, Invisible Man, and Hound of the Baskervilles, which measure approximately 152mm x 227mm in the original range.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote from Saturn Magic\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eFacsimile: The Unabridged Book Test\u003c\/b\u003e is genuinely a beauty and comes with our highest recommendation. It’s the ideal choice for those who’ve always shied away from this type of effect and for seasoned mentalists looking to perform multiple word revelations in the fairest conditions possible with minimal effort, letting you focus entirely on your performance. And after discovering Facsimile, mentalists and magicians lived happily ever after.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Saturn Magic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56779719835972,"sku":"FACTSMI2_SCAR","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0943\/1826\/4644\/files\/80243-full_fb6e4e49-177e-4881-a8f6-db0befc2bb2d.png?v=1779428532","url":"https:\/\/www.handpickedmagic.com\/products\/facsimile-2-0-the-unabridged-book-test-a-study-in-scarlet-by-michael-daniels","provider":"Hand Picked Magic ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
