Introduction

When the rubber penetration came into popularity several yearsago, it represented something really new in magic. Here was atrick that was actually accomplished before it began, leavingonlookers baffled by a visible penetration of a coin through a sheetof solid rubber, with no clue whatever as to its accomplishment.So effective was this mystery that magicians themselves beganwondering when further effects of this nature would be developed,if ever.

They have been developed; and the time is now. The veryprinciple of the rubber penetration made it adaptable to new uses,provided someone gave them proper thought. By introducing newdevices and applying existing gimmicks in special ways, a series ofremarkable surprises came into being, practically all the work ofone inventive mind.

This book is the result. In it Ian Sutz has added one neat twist afteranother, even producing startling effects that go beyond theoriginal concept, with intriguing variations that will keepspectators guessing all the more. The basic penetration has evenbeen applied to a balloon, creating a completely new effect: whilethe introduction of various articles such as keys, nails and otheravailable items {seen and unseen} provide still morebewilderment.

Coin balloon-acy is sure to become a classic in itself and theaccompanying items can readily be worked into effective routines.Try them yourself and be convinced.

THE RUBBER SQUARE

The rubber square consists of a thin piece of rubberavailable from a variety of sources: Latex gloves,clear balloons, and the commercial form known asrubber dam. Rubber squares comes in 5" x 5" sheetsin white or dark color available from your favoritemagic dealer.

This rubber square, when prepared in several ways,will provide several diverse effects, most of whichdepend on the rubber square's stretchable quality. Inmost of the routines, the rubber square is stretchedthin and clear over coins and other objects. This thincovering is so transparent that it will defy the closestexamination. The total illusion suggests to thespectator that the object is on top of the rubbersquare, whereas it is actually under it, suspended bythe pressure of the rubber surface. Like so manytricks, the rubber square is derived from the physicalsciences. Remember though, until the science ispublicly known, the physical effect will remainmagicaL

See figures page 1

PAGE 2#1} THE PENETRATIONEffect: A coin is seen to be resting on a rubber sheetwhich has been secured over a glass tumbler by anelastic band. The spectator is asked to touch the coinand to push it. The spectator causes the coin toapparently penetrate the rubber sheet and fall into thesealed tumbler. The spectator may inspecteverything and even try to duplicate the effectwithout success.

The Basic set-up: Requires a coin (or two), a smallbottle, salt shaker, or anything with a pedestal-typeshape smaller than the diameter of the coin used. Ihave found the cap from a felt marker pen to be thebest for most coins. You will also need a glasstumbler, an elastic band, and a rubber sheet or rubbersquare.

I} place the coin on top of the cap.

2} Stretch the piece of rubber using both hands, thenusing four fingers, stretch it in two directions at onceuntil it is clear.

3} While stretched, center it over the coin and gentlypress down. As you slowly lower the rubber square,release your grip. This will leave the center portionof the rubber square stretched clear over the coin andthe balance of the rubber square will pull itself aroundand under the coin.

} Lift the rubber square and coin and place it over ashot-glass with the elastic band binding it around therim of the tumbler.

5} Place a second coin on top or just under the rim ofthe prepared coin and you are ready to perform. It isat this time the spectator first sees any apparatus.

Performance: If your set-up has been successful, thecoin with clear rubber square over it will look as if itis merely resting on a piece of rubber next to a secondcoin. "Force" the spectator to select the preparedcoin. If he chooses the right one, discard theunprepared coin. If he names the unprepared coin,discard it and use the right one. No matter what thespectator chooses, you use the coin~ want anyway.

Tell the spectator to touch the remaining coin andpush. The prepared coin will pop into the tumblerand remain sealed in the glass. Ask the spectator"what has happened?". Have him agree that theremust be a hole in the rubber square. When he agrees,ask him to "FIND THE HOLE".

The preparation for the basic routine will be the samefor most of the variations discussed in this book.Please practice and perform it before continuing withthe variations.

#2} DOUBLE PENETRATION: The first variationis also one of the most confusing to the spectator.The effect begins when a penny or a dime is placedvisibly on a quarter resting on a sheet of rubbersecured over a glass. The magician takes a wand orpen and taps the coin gently. The upper coin appearsto penetrate the quarter and the rubber sheet and fallsinto the glass. The magician taps the coin again andthe quarter also appears to penetrate the rubber sheet.All may be inspected.

THE METHOD: To accomplish this effect requiresstretching the rubber square over two coins at once.The under coin should be smaller than the top one. Iuse a quarter and a penny combination due to theavailability of magnetic pennies necessary to theeffect*. Once the two coins are stretched over thesmaller coin will be suspended below the "visible"coin undetected by the spectator. Place this set-upover a glass of water and secure it with a rubberband. Let the spectator see you put a penny{duplicate} on top of the prepared quarter. The firstobjective will be to vanish the duplicate penny and atthe same time have the hidden coin drop into theglass. The move should be practiced several timesbefore performing. See Figure A - Page 5*Canadian coins, specifically dimes and nickels, arean excellent source of magnetic coins.

Obtain a wand or a pen, and attach some wax to theflat end just enough to be able to stick to the

PAGES

BA

duplicate coin. Hold the pen in the center with thethumb and forefinger.

You will notice that when the coin is stuck to thepen, you are able to swing the coin into your palm.If you catch it and retain it in your palm, you canbring the pen quickly back into view. Figure B

Practice this vanish until the illusion is as convincingas possible. However, the misdirection of the coinappearing in the glass should hide any problems inthe upper move.

The pressure of the pen as it picks up the upper coinwill release the hidden coin. This too should bepracticed a bit so as not to accidentally push thequarter "through" before you intend to. Should thishappen. vanish the upper coin anyway and accept theabbreviated but still startling effect. Should yousucceed in vanishing the upper coin whilesimultaneously producing the under coin, then youmay push the quarter through as a second effect.

#3} An easier method of vanishing the upper coinwould be to use a steel coin, shell coin, or canadiandime or nickel as the smaller coins. Instead of wax,use a magnetic wand or pen* to vanish the upper coinusing the same "swing to palm" method as describedearlier.

#4} My favorite and the easiest method is to use amagnetic match box*. The match-box is placed overthe steel coin, and by tapping the box gently, theunder coin is released. Lift the box to confirm thevanish of the duplicate. Complete the trick bypenetrating the remaining quarter through the rubbersquare.

* The "penny balancer" trick is an excellent sourcefor two inconspicuous steel pennies. Magneticmatch-boxes are available in a variety of commercialtricks such as "pentro-penny", "well, I Never" andnickel to penny to dime.

#S} RESET: Effect-A quarter is seen on a rubbersquare. A dime is placed upon it. Both coins arepushed, but only one coin penetrates. The dimeseems to have only partially penetrated. The rubbersquare is turned over and the dime is seen sticking tothe underside of the rubber square. The Dime is thenpushed back through the rubber square from theopposite side.

Method: Prepare a quarter in the standard manner.Secure this over a water glass but do not secure itwith a rubber band...merely hold it with your hand.Openly place a dime dead center on top of thequarter. A fast, sharp push of the dime will cause thequarter to penetrate, but of course, not the dime.Without removing your finger {which should becovering the partially penetrated dime}, turn over therubber square to reveal the dime on the opposite side.

If your push was sharp enough, the rubber squarepopping around the quarter will pop around thedime, resetting it almost as perfectly as the quarterwas stretched. Quickly push the dime through therubber square. This trick may be more of a curiositythan a magic effect, but I found that if you use anyconsecutively smaller coins, each pop of the coinwill set up the next one.

#6} Nickel to dime through rubber square:Effect-a nickel is seen on a rubber square, changed toa dime, and then is penetrated through the rubbersquare.Method: Prepare a dime in a rubber square and placeit over a shot glass. Secure this set-up with a rubberband. Take a shell penny or nickel, (available at yourmagic dealer), and place it over a prepared dime.Vanish the shell using the same method asdouble-penetration with either a wand or amatch-book. Reveal the changed coin and thenpenetrate it through the rubber square also.

#7} Sandwich Vanish: Effect- A quarter, dime and apenny are stacked over a rubber rubber square. Thedime vanishes from between the quarter and thepenny, then the quarter vanishes from under thepenny. The quarter and dime are found in the glass.

Method: Double stretch a dime and a quarter, as inDOUBLE-PENETRATION #2 routine. Obtain alocking penny and dime from your dealer and placethe dime section over the prepared quarter withhidden dime. The locking penny section should beplaced over the dime ready to lock together. A tapwith a stick or wand will lock the penny and dime toform a penny. The duplicate dime will appear fromunder the quarter and fall into the glass. Anotherpush will vanish the quarter into the glass leavingonly the penny remaining.

#8} Spiked Square: Effect-A nail is seen to bepenetrated through a rubber square. The magicianshows this to be not only protruding through therubber square from the top, but may also be freelyshown to be coming through the rubber square fromthe bottom. The magician grabs the shank of the nailand snaps it from the rubber square. Of course nohole can be found.

Method: The object is to stretch the rubber squareover a nail head and do it gently enough not to breakthe rubber square. With practice, this can be doneanywhere, but I recommend the following procedure:

Get an 8D common nail and a 4D box nail. Tap thecommon nail into a piece of wood, remove it, andthen place the box nail into the hole.

.-.~

II----~'~/ ~Il

This will aid you as a bracket to hold the nail duringthe set-up. Stretch the rubber square over the nailhead as though it were a coin. Hold the rubber squarewith the nail and show it freely on both sides, theillusion being that the nail has penetrated the rubber

square. The uniqueness of the illusion is that youmay for the first time show both sides of a rubbersquare set-up during the performance. Grasp thepointed shank of the nail and pull the head through.Ask the spectator to find the hole.

A subtle touch: Actually have a nail puncture therubber square next to the set-up nail. The nail shouldlook identical. You grasp the gimmick and thespectator grasps the other one. Your nail leaves nohole, and their's does.

#9} Stretch the square over Dice, washers, balls, oralmost anything that can allow the rubber square tostretch over it and stay in place without breaking.

lID} Noted Author, Roy Fromer suggested using anOkito coin box with the rubber square. Place therubber square with a prepared coin set-up directlyover an open Okito box. Covering the box, theprepared coin is caused to penetrate inside to the"sealed" box. He also suggested preparing a coin,and then merely wrapping the rubber square aroundthe coin. Pressing the folded rubber square, with coininside will release the coin into your palm. You maythen reproduce the coin from a coin box or from yourpocket, after showing the coin to have vanished fromthe folded rubber square.

#ll} Now you see it: Effect-A coin is sitting on arubber square, above and below the coin is written"Now you see it". The coin penetrates and the rubbersquare now reads "now you don't see it".

Method: Before preparing the coin, use a standard orthick ball point pen and write "now you see it" as perthe illustration. The word "don't" should be writtenwhere the coin will be stretched, taking care not tohave the printing exceed the area the coin will cover.

Stretch the rubber square over the coin with the word"don't" across it, and the word will be temporarilyobscured (actually it is stretched over and around thecoin). Upon penetration the word will be revealed toform the new sentence or word.

#12} You may also use this principle to force a cardand reveal it as the coin penetrates the rubber square.Reveal other predictions and complete othersentences.

NI3} Clip-it Restoration: Effect-A piece of rubbersheet is folded and cut. When unfolded the rubbersquare is still joined together.

Method: This trick is very similar to the famousnewspaper trick "clippo". The "clippo" trick usesrubber cement coated lightly upon a newspaper,which when cut and unfolded, appears to still be inone piece. The trick works due to the nature of therubber in rubber cement which causes it to meld orbind together when sharply compressed. The rubberrubber square is a "pure" form of this trick.

A) Fold the rubber square at any point and cut acrossthe folded pieces. Cut in as straight a line as possible.

B) Unfold the pieces and they will adhere together asif they are one piece. The cut mark will show, and ifyou pull hard the rubber square will separate at thecut. {do not do so during the performance.}

C) Take any two separate rubber square pieces andlay them over each other. Cut across the two piecesand they will appear to have blended when unfolded.

D) Fold the rubber square and cut a diagonal line, andthe rubber square will form a right angle connectionwhen unfolded. This trick is a curiosity and shouldbe added as an amusing part of your rubber squareroutine.

#14} Cut and restored rubber square: Effect-theMagician wraps a sheet of rubber around a playingcard and visibly cuts through both with a scissor.The pieces of the card fall to the table but the rubbersheet remains uncut. All may be inspected.Method: You will need a loose-fitting scissor, but onethat does cut. The set-up is automatic and part of theperformance.

A) Take any bridge-sized playing card and wrap apiece of rubber square around it by placing the cardlength-wise along the lower half of a standard 5" x 5"rubber square and folding it over.B) Hold the wrapped card across the fingers and heldin place by the thumb. The fold should be at the topof your fingers and the open end of the wrapped cardtoward your body. rc-J~C) Take the scissor and start to cut the rubber squareat the lower end. Cut with a loose grip and the rubbersquare will start to stretch between the scissor blades.When you start to cut the card, you may cut as hardas you wish. The illusion will fool you as well,because the card will be cutting and it will seem thatyou have actually cut the rubber square. Continuethe cut in one motion, open the scissor and shake thecard pieces loose. Rub the rubber square as ifmending it, and reveal the restored rubber square.This works automatically and will amaze you as youperform it.

#15) Water torture cell: Effect-Two coins are seeninside a glass of water sealed with a rubber squareand turned upside down. A spectator selects one ofthe coins and the magician reaches up through therubber square and pulls the selected coin out from theglass without leakage. The remaining coin cannot beremoved in the same manner.

Method: The title is mine, but the routine isremembered by Al Cohen, a magic dealer andconvention acquaintance.

Prepare a coin but secure it face down over a filledglass of water. Before securing the rubber square,drop an unprepared coin into the glass. Make sureyou now tightly prepare a rubber band to seal theglass, and then turn the glass mouth face down.When looking through the sides and top of the waterglass, it should look as though the two coins aretrapped in the glass of water. Have the spectatorselect one of the coins. Should the prepared coin beselected, reach up into the glass from the bottom andpull the coin from its' set-up. Should the other coinbe chosen, merely state that you will let him have thatcoin and you will take the prepared coin, again,removing it from the set-up. In either case, thespectator is left with the dilemma of removing the

#16} Invisible Deck: Effect-A card is freely selectedplaced back in the deck, and handed to the spectator.The Spectator is asked to quickly find the selectedcard. It cannot be found, the magician takes the deckback, and also thumbs through it and cannot be found.The spectator is asked to tap the deck. The top card ofthe deck is turned over and revealed to be the selectedcard. This card may be signed.

Method: The rubber square breaks from time to timeand any piece as small as 1/2" can be used for thiseffect. Wash the piece to remove any powder residuefrom the rubber square. Use it as follows:

A} The oil of your thumb will allow the small squareto stick to your thumbprint while you hold a deck ofcards.

B} Have a spectator select any card and while theylook at the card, place the piece of rubber on thecenter of the back of the card on the top of the deck.

C} Have the spectator place the card on the card withthe rubber square, {the spectator won't notice it, asthey are watching you or their card and not the backof the deck.

D} With the selected card on top of the prepared card,you can now place a group of cards on top of theselected card. The card will be in the middle.

E} Hand the deck to the spectator and ask to quicklyfan the cards and find their card. Rush them throughthis by telling them to hurry, hurry. They will statethat they cannot find it.

F} Quickly take the deck back and ask them what theircard was. After which you also fan through the deckquickly and try to find their card. Due to the rubberacting as a bond of the two cards, the face of their cardwill be obscured. You will however be able to feel thedouble card thickness as you thumb through the deck,and as you do so, keep a break at the double card andcut it to the top of the deck.

G} Ask the spectator to tap the deck as you carefullyseparate the top card from the gimmick, remove it andreveal the face to be their card.

H} An alternate method is to merely go through thesame steps and instead of having the spectator hold thecards, you merely reveal it yourself by thumbingthrough the cards until you find the double thickness.

#17} Coin through rubber glove: Obtain a surgicallatex glove from your dentist or doctor and insert thecoin into the palm area of the glove. Insert your handinto the glove and the illusion will be that the coin islaying on your rubber clad hand. Cull your hand asyou do this so as not to acciDENTALly expand therubber and pull away the set-up. Tap the coin or clapyour hand sharply with your other hand and the coinwill penetrate the glove and wind up inside the glove.

You can also just cut the glove rubber into square orcircles and use the rubber as the basic trick requires.

#18}Coin through un-inflated balloon: Obtain aclear #11 balloon and insert the coin inside. Preparethe coin by stretching the rubber clear over the coin.The illusion will be that the coin is laying on theoutside of the balloon. As you blow the balloon up,the coin will penetrate the balloon.

#19}Coin through inflatedBalloon-acy":In private, do the following set-up:

PAGE 18balloon, "Coin

A}Insert the coin into the balloon then blow theballoon up before you stretch it over the coin. Blow itup full and then let a third of the air out.

B} tie off the balloon, and allow the coin to fall intothe puntil or opposite end of the balloon.

C} grasp through the balloon from the outside andhold onto it as you stretch the thick rubber over theface of the coin. If you let it go it will fall out of thestretch, so you must stretch it and then grip it as youwould a dial.

D} Pull the coin away from the balloon forming atube under it, then twist the coin the same as youwould turn a dial. Once the twist is in the balloon,press the coin on the surface of the balloon. It shouldlook as though the coin is on top of the balloon and onthe outside. It is now that you may show the spectatorthe effect.

E} Keep the tip of your finger on the coin and exertenough pressure so as not to let the twist unravel.

F} Ask the spectator to watch as you push the cointhrough the balloon. Pretend to push, but at one pointyou actually let the pressure off and as you do so, thecoin will magically spiral into the balloon and spin inan ellipse around the interior of the balloon.

NOTE: For additional moves and subtleties on thiseffect, ask your dealer for "Coin Balloon-acy"

#20}Silk in balloon: The silk in balloon method issimilar to coin balloon except you use a 6" or 9"scarf.

A} Blow up the balloon and seal it off with a smallscarf inside. NOTE: you may use any #12 or #16balloon and any color.

B} Grasp the silk hanky through the outside of theballoon and bunch it up into a ball while it is still inthe balloon.

C} Twist the wad of silk and this time, while thetwist is still in it, put the silk between your fingerstowards the back of your hand. Let the fingerssqueeze together and then tum your palm upright andslightly towards you audience. It is now the time toperform.

Proclaim to make a silk appear in the balloon, countto three and throw the balloon into the air, letting goof the secret silk hanky load. It will untwist andappear in mid air. Catch the balloon and show offyour production.

#21}acrobatic card: Joe Fenichel came up with abrilliant secret gimmick using the rubber dam. Hetook a card and cut it in half. Glued a rubber squareacross the cut seam of the card. Then he took asecond card and glued one half of the cut card to theface of the whole card. Place the whole thing undersome weight and let it dry overnight.

What you now have is a card flap that will springback into place and also flip the card in a somersault.Fold the flap back and place it onto the table holdinga little pressure on it. Let the pressure up and thecard will flip over.

Now, get a few more cards. Fold the flap over andreveal the under card. Place a normal card over it tohide the folded card. Also put another card under itso you can show a fan of three cards. Let's sayanjack, queen, and king. Turn over all three face downand keep a little pressure on it. Let the pressure offand the gimmick will flip the cards over. It willappear that the middle card has disappeared. Tostrengthen the effect, take a duplicate of the missingcard and pull it out of your pocket.

#22}soft spring: If you use wood or cardboard boxesfor small illusions, you can save money by glueingthe rubber square sheets across the wood surfaces.

When dry, they make a fairly viable hinge that springsback to place and aligns the pieces back. One nice useof this is the appearing coin on a deck of cards.

A} obtain a deck of cards and take about 6-8 cardsand cut out the centers. If you use a fox lake{aviator} brand, just cut along the liner box line. IfYou use a tally-ho, cut out the circles of the fan.

B} next glue these cut out pieces together, then gluethe group onto an uncut card. This now forms apocket for a coin.

C} next cut another card along the circle of thetally-ho fan, or just cut a box out of the aviator card.DO NOT discard the piece, instead, lay the card withits cut piece face up. Glue a piece of rubber squareacross the edge of one side of the card. The end cutedge is preferable. Note: it is advisable that the lastcard cut {hinged card} be cut a little smaller than theother holes. This allows the flap to rest on a solidsection of card instead of the flap closing and thenfalling too low into it's closed position.

D} Now glue this card face down onto the group ofother glued cards. You will now have a containerwith a lid all made of cards, glue and rubber square.

E} To perform the effect, place the gimmick sectionof cards on top of the remainder of the deck. Gentlylift the flap and insert a quarter.

F} Place a glass tumbler over the deck and you areready.

G} Allow a spectator to hold the entire set-up. Obtaina second or duplicate quarter and vanish it in yourfavorite method. Pretend to still have it in yourclosed hand. With the closed empty hand, tap the topof the glass and deck setup held by the spectator.Open your hand flat just as you hit the top of thetumbler. The jolt will cause the hidden coin to appearon the top of the deck and the rubber square will closethe flap shut.

#23} pencil thru card: using the glued flap method,punch a hole in a card with a hole punch and save thehole.

A} Cut a square out of a second card and make ahinged flap as in trick #22. Align the card with thesquare flap with the card with the hole and put a spotof glue on the cut out piece from the hole and align itback to where it was cut. Let this dry.

B} now glue the rest of the cards together at it'sedges.

C} obtain a straw or thin pencil and press the pencilagainst the hole. It will cause the hole to move alongwith the flap and give the illusion that it waspenetrated.

#24) slide card monte: The three card monte wasalways nice, but it would be nicer to be clean at theend of the trick. My way, uses the rubber square as apull.

A} get a cheap thin deck of cards, even hong-kongjumbo cards work nicely. The thinner the better. Cutthe pip corner of one card and lay it face down on theback of another whole card {rounded edge to theleft}. Now, glue a rubber square across it and let itdry.

B} Glue a second card over the gimmick, but onlyglue it at the edges of three sides, the top, bottom,and right side as you view the cards face down.When dry, you will be able to reach into a pocketformed in the side of the card and pull out the piece.

C} Glue two additional sets of cards together at allfour sides. Using cheap cards will allow these cardsto be handled and not perceived as doubles. Turn allof them face up to you. Align one card squarelyunder the gimmick. Another card under that andspread to the left. The gimmick pulled out of thepocket must have pressure exerted on it to hold itfrom popping into the pocket.

D} Show the cards in a fan {Normal, gimmick, andpocket card. As you turn it face down, let thegimmick go and spread the three cards face down onthe table. The spectator will not guess where thecenter card has gone. NOTE: the thin card stock willactually allow the spectator to pick up the gimmickcard undetected. You may produce a duplicate of thevanished card from a pocket.

#25} disc-o-dime: One of the most unusual uses ofthe rubber square was a trick called disc-go-dime.The set-up was tedious but the effect was baffling.

A} cut a piece of rubber about 2" square. Stretch adime under it as in the standard set-up. Now gatherthe four ends of the square together under the dime,and push them through the hole in a key. It takes asecond or two, but once the ends are through thehole, hold the key by the tip and pull then corners ofthe square towards the key tip. Hold this tightly.

B} color the rubber face of the dime with a blackmagic marker, and it will hide the silver of the dimeand make it look like a bingo chip disc. {For effect,have actual bingo chips in a small pile and pretend toplace one on the key.

~~~=::::::;;~=/~.:Ir~t.T,H ,'"

...... -.-,'

6fr'RErHEfI. SCitlAc -rn~KEY Sl-rr

C} take a sharp pin, or the edge of another key andstrike the center of the black disc {rubber covereddime}. The rubber will fly off the dime surface andcarry the color with it Dust as you can change thecolor of a balloon}. The illusion will look as thoughthe chip turned into a dime.

#26} There is a hole: Get a hold of the trick"vanishing coin" where you get a small plexiglassclear quarter. Prepare the plexi circle as you would acoin, and the illusion is that you have magnified thehole in the rubber and you can see right through it.Then pop the plexi circle through the square and letthe spectator go nuts.

GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN.
