The following are just a few examples of some of the
Magic and Escape effects created by Peter John Lindsay:

The Fully Inspectable Ultimate Torn and Restored Newspaper

Effect:

* A newspaper is handed to members of the audience to examine. Then the pages are torn up by the
audience members. They are then handed to the magician who instantly restores them and hands them back
to the audience to examine and take home.

Drawing a Blank

Effect:

* A magician explains how he hates performing card tricks, because no one remembers their card's name.
However, to oblige the audience he does perform one card trick for the audience. The audience "forgets " the
name of the card... or don't they? Either way, they draw a blank.

The fourteen foot tall guillotine escape

Effect:

* A performer places his hands through the neck stock area of a real working guillotine. His hands are then
placed inside a plexiglass box and are handcuffed within the box. The handcuffs are then locked secure and
a cover is added the key access of the cuffs. The plexiglass box is then locked and covered. A timer device
then is set and the blade of the guillotine is put in place. The performer either escapes or loses his hands.

The gun-less bullet catching trick

Effect:

* A performer explains that 12 people have died while doing the "bullet catching trick". He explains he knows
what went wrong... they were using real bullets. He explains how he was going to now do the same effect,
without using a gun (a safer method). The "bullet" is marked and caught between his partner's teeth.
