THE CLOSE-UP BOOK TEST
Pocket sized
H = 6.75 inches W = 4.25 inches D = 0.43 inches
Easy to read text printed on beautiful cream pages emulating the classic novel.
12pt Garamond font. 46,407 words. 181 pages.
FLASHBack
Includes Barry Fazackerley’s BackTrack FlashBack principle, which uses reverse pair word palindromes.
LONG WORDS
Includes U.F Grant’s long word principle, but utilised, in a devious way, the long words only feature in the latter half of the book (45%) essentially, creating a long word bank. Multiple handlings have been included for the long word phase. They are all easy to accomplish, utterly fooling, and most importantly, completely LOGICAL! I imagine this is how James Bond would perform a book test.
ALCHEMY
+ All 18 long words contain an A & E
+ All 18 long words have an A or E located at the second position.
+ All long words are 11 letters in length.
EXAMINABLE
Although the book is highly gimmicked, it can still withstand close scrutiny by spectators! This is due to the way the flashback and long word principles have been constructed. The book can be examined before and during performance and they won’t find a thing.
INSTRUCTIONS
Includes a 55 page booklet outlining all the inner workings of the book plus numerous routines and handling ideas.
ACCLAIM FOR FRANKENSTEIN
“A deceptively normal looking copy of Frankenstein hiding a multitude of mentalism tools...that can be fully inspected, what’s not to love? I will 100% be using this in my shows.”
“Kaleb Wade has created the Swiss army knife of book tests. It’s slique, well thought out and looks totally innocent. It packs small and plays big. Kudos!”
“The Frankenstein Book Test by Kaleb Wade is an object of beauty in it’s inconspicuous nature; Hiding in plain sight as an ordinary bargain store book, you will be able to perform amazing feats of mentalism, with ease.”
“Kaleb’s use of these classic mentalism plots is simply mind-blowing. Imagine being able to truly read someone’s mind in the fairest way possible. THAT is the ability Frankenstein awards you.”
“My favourite book test by far. This is absolute gold!”
“I’m stoked! It’s a beautiful book, and I am super excited to get on the road with this.”
“This is a book test like no other I’ve ever seen before! Frankie is ridiculously devious and the perfect tool for mentalists and magicians!”
