Smileys - SOLD OUT!
The magician has had a bad day. Unlike most people, however, he
doesn't wear his emotions on his sleeve, he shows them in his coins! The
magician draws a sad face on the face of a half dollar. To make the coin feel
better, the magician gives it a tickle. The sad face changes to a happy one!
Another tickle, and the coin changes to a yellow smiley face! One last tickle,
and the smiley face becomes a big smiley face, bringing a big smile to your
audience!
But wait, there's more! Also included: Smileys jr.:
This is a more impromptu looking version of the same effect. The magician
borrows a quarter, and draws a sad face on the coin. With a tickle, the frown
turns into a smile! Another tickle, and the smile on the coin changes into an
even bigger smile, which is returned to the spectator as a happy souvenir of a
magical moment.
Comes complete with two specially made gimmicked coins, two smiley faces with
something extra, and a DVD with comprehensive instructions on how to perform
both effects.
