walk-around

The performer hands out a book of matches for close examination. A penny is then borrowed and the date on the coin is noted. Commenting that, "You can create a little static electricity between almost any two things," the magician rubs the coin on his sleeve, places the penny on the matchbook and tips the book on its side.

Unfortunately, the penny slides off. "Let's try that one more time," says the performer as he again rubs the coin on the matchbook. This time, when the book is tipped, not only does the penny stick, the coin MELTS INTO THE FIBERS OF THE MATCHBOOK!!! The book of matches is immediately handed out for examination and the date is verified! This easy-to-do, very visual, heart-stopping effect comes complete with three different handlings and three matchbooks.

I have many of Jay's tricks, and really love his stuff. And after I saw the demo for this trick, Jay's performance really sells it (of course). BUT, this trick was very disappointing when I began performing it. The handling can be awkward and revealing, and the penny on the matchbook is not well made. - This is disappointing since most of Jay's gimmicks are primo stuff. The penny doesn't look real at all, and doesn't seem to fool anyone - at least not in the conditions I've performed it in. You would need really low light to make it work I think.
It's a good concept, but considering the problems mentioned above, it's definitely not worth the money.
