Optical Deceptions is a two-card revelation with a visual impact of "I can't believe what I just saw"! After having two cards selected and returned to the deck the magician takes on the challenge of finding the card of smallest value first by visually shrinking the entire deck and removing one miniature card from it. The shrunken deck is then visually stretched back to normal size and the miniature card is proven to be one of the spectators chosen selections.

In an attempt in finding the other selected card of larger value, the miniature card previously displayed visually grows back to normal size and it is revealed to be the second selection. Now it's larger in size and value!

"Optical Deceptions features a unique optical principal called "The Monkey Paw Stretch", that when applied to a deck of cards will make performing this effect fun to watch in the mirror as your practice. The routine handling has been structured to be direct and to the point making it easy to learn and with the help of a special card (that you will learn to make) you will be performing Optical Deceptions upon the eyes and minds of others in no time". - Michael Boden
