Arrival by David Regal

“ARRIVAL”
HAS ARRIVED

…and card-to-impossible-location has never been more beautiful.

What is ARRIVAL? It was the closing effect of David’s recent close-up act at the Magic Castle.

The magician displays a small cloth package secured with a silver cord. The bundle is unwrapped - inside is a deck of cards. A card is selected, signed if desired, and returned to the deck. The handkerchief is slowly folded into quarters and the deck waved over it. The spectator looks through the deck – the selected card is gone. The magician unfolds the handkerchief. There in the handkerchief’s center is the selected card.

As astonishing as this is, it gets better when two spectators each select a card. The first card is found inside the folded handkerchief. The second? It is “made invisible” and given to the second spectator to hold. He tosses it into the air as the magician uses the handkerchief like a net to “catch” the invisible card.

Without cover, the card “turns visible” and appears on the handkerchief. It can immediately be handed to the spectator.
