This quality apparatus by Petrie Lewis Manufacturing is of nickeled metal and stands 10 3/4" high and has a weighted base for steadiness in operation.
The magician states to the audience that he will cause any card that is selected to rise upon command. Upon shuffling the cards he states that one half of the deck will be placed in the houlette and the other half given to a spectator for selection. After one card is selected the magician removes the houlette part from the stand and holds it out for the spectator to place his selected card in followed by placing the houlette back on the stand as all eyes are upon the stand the chosen card in smooth fashion rises up and away from the balance of the pack!
A truly beautiful effect and carried out by the mechanics within this lovely piece. This includes an early deck of Steamboat Playing Cards that are regular for display. If wishing to make this deck special for use with the stand there are instructions and a template for doing so. Includes Ultra Card Rising Stands instructions. This hard to find item in very good condition and is hallmark stamped with the large P&L Logo.
