Ringing Card Case
Anton Corradin
(Based on 1 review)
Effect
Nearing the end of his card routine, the Magician leaves the empty card case on the table for everyone to see. He then spots someone in the audience wearing a ring and asks if he can borrow the ring. The ring is placed in the Magician's right hand. The Magician then explains that with a little bit of magic the ring will travel from his hand to the closed empty card case lying on the table. He then picks up the card case from the table and opens his hand to reveal that the ring has disappeared. At the same time, he looks at the card case in his hand and gives it a little shake. To the audience's amazement, the sound of the ring moving around in the card case can be heard by all! The Magician opens the card case and turns it upside down, allowing the ring to fall into his hand. He presents the ring to the audience and shows that the card case is completely empty!
Comes complete with gaffed card case and detailed color instructions!

Oh, how foolish I felt when I got this. I actually had one of those moments where I thought "did I just pay for a normal empty card box, and a move to make it sound like a ring is in the box?!" I mean, I looked at the thing, looked INSIDE the thing, shook the thing, and, nothing.
Then of course I actually read the brief instructions, and THEN handled the box. It fooled me, and I have looked at countless gadgets, gizmos, etc. since boyhood. So, I was ultimately thrilled at the innocence, simplicity of working, and by the concept in general, that is Ringing Card case.
It's another example I think of capitalizing on a prop that is already there, and doing something unexpected and quite magical with it. The only thing I noticed was that the back printing on the box is not as clear as standard printing would be.
This, however would never be noticed, and has nothing to do with the M.O., which works beautifully, and has this box looking as normal as it should. I found this on sale at Magic Warehouse for much less than 18$. That seems a bit high, considering what you get-but whatever price you may find this at, it's a very well made utility prop.
A nice alternative to a rattle box, and a space saver as well. To me, a welcome addition to the 'trick card case' category.
