DESCRIPTION
Looking for a close-up effect that's different? The Purse Game or Swindle is to the English or Australian sharper what the 3 Shell Game is to the American bunko artist. Spectators would see the operator drop two silver coins into a small purse, pass the purse from hand to hand, and then offer the purse for sale at less than the value of the coins used. On the victim examining his purchase he found only two copper coins valued at two cents. There are no fast moves and only one purse is used. There is a bit of skill, a lot of misdirection and just enough subtlety to make this the pocket trick you will enjoy doing for your friends. We supply Al Baker's excellent original, well-illustrated instructions that detail the clever handling, along with a Bonus Trick - Ted Annemann's own, easy-to-do version (The Sharper's Purse) that uses rolled up $10 bills instead of coins. No properties are supplied with this 8-page PDF download (all are readily available and ungimmicked).
