DOCC HILFORD – BLACKMAIL

BLACKMAIL

Great mentalism is SIMPLE, DIRECT and CLEAN.
BLACKMAIL, is all that and more!
BLACKMAIL isn’t a great trick, it’s as close to REAL CLAIRVOYANCE as you can get.

Here’s the FIRST effect…

Show a single, plain coin envelope.
Ask a subject to get his wallet and take out a dollar bill.
He folds it (portrait inside) and drops it into the empty coin envelope.
You don’t touch the bill.
The envelope is closed.
The subject holds the closed envelope – while your hands are EMPTY!
IMMEDIATELY, you reveal the serial number!
No messing around or handling.

HE PUTS THE FOLDED BILL IN THE ENVELOPE and HE HOLDS IT.
The entire serial number is openly recorded on the envelope.
It’s spoken aloud so everyone hears the revelation.
After, the subject opens the envelope, looks at the bill’s serial number,
AND THEY MATCH!
Now the spectator can keep everything.
Look at this…

The same single envelope that the subject drops his dollar into, is the same envelope on which you write the serial number.
YOU NEVER TOUCH THE DOLLAR BILL!
Not before it goes into the coin envelope…
Not after the trick is over, to check the number.
YOU NEVER TOUCH IT!

The envelope doesn’t leave the audience’s sight.
THE SUBJECT KEEPS THE ENVELOPE AND HIS DOLLAR!
He can examine everything – there’s nothing to discover… EVER!
Also…

You DO NOT OPEN the envelope.
ONLY the subject opens the envelope and touches the banknote.
When the subject checks the number given by you against the serial number on his dollar bill, he finds THEY MATCH PERFECTLY.

Here are more features…

You can repeat BLACKMAIL immediately.
No set-up or re-set.
No memorization of serial numbers.
Every dollar is different, every time you borrow it.
No chemicals.
It doesn’t HAVE to be a dollar bill.
Any denomination bill can be borrowed, $1, $5, $10, $20, $50 or $100.
You can begin by asking him to, “Take out ANY value bill.”
BLACKMAIL can be used as a walk-around item.
If you carry 12 ungimmicked envelopes, you can perform BLACKMAIL 12 times.
You won’t need special bills or special envelopes.
Works great with POLYMER banknotes.
No Thumb Tips or Pulls.
You don’t need sleeves or a jacket.

Remember, YOU NEVER TOUCH THE MONEY!

Because you DO NOT SWITCH the envelope (there’s only one envelope used), BLACKMAIL is EASY TO DO!

To begin, you have ONLY the coin envelope – after the subject places his dollar in it, YOUR HANDS ARE COMPLETELY EMPTY!

BLACKMAIL is NOT mind reading.
BLACKMAIL is a demonstration of apparent CLAIRVOYANCE, or SEEING THE UNSEEN.

To psychically see into a closed coin envelope is the same as perceiving the contents of a sealed box.
Yet BLACKMAIL is easy to carry around.
It combines perfectly with reading a line from a closed book…
Or seeing the top of a dice in a little box.

BLACKMAIL may be the PERFECT impromptu psychic demonstration.
