The Genii Forum

Morning.

Guys, Its a bit of a long shot but Ive a big favour to ask.

recently i have obtained a box of stuff from ebay.
( there were one or two nice things in it)

one of the items in the job lot, was the cards for the alex elmsley/ dr jax effect " what card ".
But it didnt have any instructions.

Its a bit of a long shot i know, but i dont suppose anybody reading this happens to have the instructions that they could e mail me?

it looks like an interesting reveal.
your help would be greatfully recieved, i can assure you..
Dale

ps...

Since the advertising blurb for this effect was a ghost, holding up the cards,(4 double sided cards, one "special") i can assume that the modus was the count.

however, the order and movements of said cards is baffling me at the moment
:)

I think Ron Allesi has the largest collection of instructions, so you might give him a phone call.

You might also want to contact Paul Gross at Hocus Pocus.

thanks for the thoughts guys.
i will drop them both an e mail in the morning

just to let you know, that ive been given a history of the effect, via Craig Browning, from the wonderfully helpfull, Mr M.


Thanks Max.

I can see i have some reading to do tonight. Thankfuly, i have both the Gen, and the Jinx at home.
though only the Jinx os on cd.
Gen, is a box containing every edition, loose...

going through that lot, is like exploring the jungle.You never know exactly what youl find.

I hope this helps!
