With the aid of these small miraculous slates, the magician can cause any brief message to appear. The slates are shown devoid of any writing at all before the trick begins. The name of a selected card, a spirit message from beyond, or anything else, then appears on one slate, written in chalk. This is an easy-to-do pocket effect that is always ready to work and requires no sleight of hand. Colors may vary. 052NUFRO00660
