ONCE UPON A TIME, there was a Book Test that ticked every box. That time is now.
Facsimile (from Latin fac simile, "to make alike") is basically a high-quality copy of an old book, manuscript, map, art print, or any historical gem that looks so spot-on, it’ll make you question reality.
By Dictionary Definition, Michael Daniels has conjured up a book test so genuine, it’s practically the real McCoy.
The world-famous book; The Hound of the Baskervilles has been reproduced with such meticulous attention to detail that your audience will genuinely believe they’re holding a first edition.
Facsimile is, quite frankly, the book test with an actual book. You’ll have the chance to perform MULTIPLE word revelations on ANY page, making it as fair and random as a game of darts in the pub.
The basic three-word effect is as follows:
Flick through the book and get them to say STOP anywhere they fancy, then ask 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 reveal it however you like.Just in case your audience suspects you’ve pulled a fast one while holding the book, hand it over and let them select ANY page. They’ll remember a word again, and once more, you’ll know precisely what’s on their mind.Oh, and if that’s not enough, you can even divine a THIRD word from the same or a different page. You’ll know instantly what they’re thinking.During phase two or three, you can even predict their chosen word using an envelope that’s been in play before they’ve even cracked the book open.

Note from Saturn Magic
Facsimile: The Unabridged Book Test really is a thing of beauty and comes with our highest recommendation. It's the ideal product for those who’ve always shied away from this type of effect and seasoned mentalists wanting to perform multiple word revelations in the fairest possible conditions with minimal effort, allowing you to focus entirely on your presentation.
And upon discovering Facsimile, mentalists and magicians performed happily ever after.
