The basic effect of Dead Presidents, an improvement on Tenyo's Ninja Knife, is the penetration of a knife through a dollar bill. It looks like this: The performer places a borrowed bill into a money clip, shows a knife and pushes the knife through the bill and the money clip. The impaled bill can be shown on both side before during and after the penetration. The knife is withdrawn and the bill is healed and returned to the spectator all can be examined if the performer desires. Item 202 includes the money clip, the knife and the secret gimmick. The bill is borrowed. The props are accompanied by our usual high quality instructions in booklet form. Every action and every word are described in detail. You learn it quickly and you'll enjoy the stunned reactions of your audiences. Dead Presidents is available and reasonably priced.
