Kilitli Deste

A deck with a hole drilled all the way thru the pack is shown. As the magician riffles thru the pack the spectator is asked to call “STOP” at any time they like. They are asked to remember the chosen card and are immediately handed the deck to hold. The magician then inserts a padlock through the hole to lock all the cards together. Despite these impossible conditions the magician claims he will make the selected card vanish from the deck. After some magic byplay the spectator is asked to look for their card. They cannot find it! The card has vanished from the locked deck! The magician then produces the chosen card from his pocket or any other location he desires. This is a super strong effect that is easy to do. Includes deck and padlock.
