Puzzled (Refill) by Roddy McGhie

Description

This Trick Will Leave Your Audience Puzzled

Puzzled is an elevated effect that was pioneered by master magician Roddy McGhie. It starts by dramatically pouring out a handful of puzzle pieces from a seemingly normal envelope. You can even let a spectator examine them. When assembled the pieces turn out to be a cut-up playing card. You then introduce the notion of a chocolate bar puzzle where a single piece can be removed, but then the pieces can be rearranged and the puzzle remains the same size. Astonishingly a single piece of the playing card puzzle is then removed, yet the puzzle can be rearranged and remains the same size as a standard playing card. You can even remove a piece in the center of the puzzle, and hand it out for examination.

Refill ‘Er Up

Of course, Puzzled is one of those effects where a piece can wander off on you. Not to mention the wear and tear that a puzzle can go through over the course of dozens if not hundreds of performances. So, this is a refill lets you keep Puzzled as a staple component in your bag of tricks.
