The Effect

Magically, you can balance *objects on the top of an up right card.
*Cup, dinner roll, saucer or whatever the card will hold.

The Method

Start with a cup and saucer.

Take an ordinary deck of cards and Remove One.

Cut an extra card in half.

Use clear tape and attach one half of cut card to the back of a regular card.

Hold the card so it will have the appearance of being flat

Swing out the half flap card and balance your object on it.

Now grab the card to show that it is flat and put everything aside.

"Presto It's Magic"!

Remember practice
makes perfect
Have a lot of fun with
"The Acrobatic Cup"!

Sincerely...
The Masked Magician
