It is about a Brainwave/Invisible BLANK deck.
So then, you have a card named or thought as saying "let your mind go blank and only think about your card"...
Then, you have the card named, take the cards out of the case, and spread it to show all the cards are blank but the selected one...
Next, turn over it to show that its back is also blank, likewise you show the back of the entire deck. So, everyrhing is blank but the card thought.
Do you know if this card idea has been published?
Thanks in advance!
I wonder if this card idea has been published somewhere...

You find this approach in Ibidem no. 27, october 1962, page 616. It's a Marlo suggestion.

Merci beaucoup, Philippe!
If it weren't for you, many of us would be truely lost!
This embodies the "saying":
"If you don't know who invented it, it was Marlo."
(Just joking)

Sh-h-h-! (as said Annemann) Don't say that. There are some who will not be pleased...

Sort of how I do the Mental Photography effect, but with the standard deck.

Excerpt:
"however, I am surprised no one thought of the obvious, more professional and highly commercial approach to the problem. The magic dealers, who have no qualms about hooking us with the Ultra Mental deck under various disguises, should have a ball with this idea, and the magi who is out to entertain his audience no matter what would probably consider his money well spent.
What is this simple solution? Why, all you do is make up a Blank Brainwave Deck. I can even give you a presentation form, untested of course, but it should wow your spectators, as it is silly enough and conforms to present-day standards of what magic should be-entertainment."

If we take into account that Card Magic, as entertainment, is around 300 or 400 years old, we may reach the plausible and funny conclusion that every thinkable card magic idea may have been already thought by someone...
If such and such thinkable idea is not in print yet is simply because the first person that thought about it was too lazy to write it down and publish it ^_^
