DAVID PENN & TCC

Recommended and performed by top magicians . Mystery Solved is one of the most brilliant creations from David Penn . To build on that success , we worked with David and proudly presented The Mystery Solved 2.0 two years ago and received great reviews from magicians all over the world .

Today , based on Mystery Solved 2.0 , David Penn has brought new life to a classic effect with a modern twist .

" I have always loved the nest boxes effect , but I wanted to create a version , perfect for closeup and for parlor , that takes this classic plot in magic , to the next level ." - David Penn

For the first time ever , with the mystery solved nest of boxes , it means that you can clearly show all of the boxes empty . You can then assemble the nest of boxes and leave it in full view of your audience . At the conclusion of your routine , the spectator ' s signed card can then materialize inside . This happens under impossible conditions ; it gives your act a natural beginning and an end .... and it frames your performance elegantly .

Each Nest of Boxes set includes two wooden boxes made from the finest North American walnut . Its precision engineered and perfectly balanced , and finally handfinished by craftsmen .

It also comes complete with Mystery Solved 2.0 , which you can naturally use for the amazing Nest of Boxes effect . But you can also use it separately . The choice is yours .

The portable size also enables you to easily carry it around .

This is sure to become a new modern classic with a homage to the past .

MY THOUGHTS : This is an incredibly beautiful piece of magic and highly deceptive . It takes David ' s original best-selling folded card in clear box routine to new heights by adding a nest of boxes .

You receive two nesting wooden boxes made by TCC and are not gimmicked in anyway , but made to fit David ' s clear Mystery Box , you get Mystery Box 2.0 plus a link to two tutorials including the one by David and one showing how to use the TCC boxes .

TCC are well known for crafting high-end wooden products and this set are made to David ' s personal specifications .

The tutorial itself is 18-minutes but you also have a much more detailed link to David ' s original Mystery Box 2.0 tutorial . This goes into more depth on how to set it up , which will take a little time but it ' s a one-time setup . What I like about this is you can use any deck of cards you want , which is why David shows you how to set it up .

The tutorial that comes with this set up goes through how to set your box up , which is easy and David ' s handling when using it . David has some nice additions that he has added such as a ribbon with key attached , which helps in showing the clear box empty at the beginning without saying it ' s empty .
