Mental Logs
Magic King
(Based on 2 reviews)
Performer displays four rods – each with different numbers on all sides. A spectator is invited to arrange the logs in any order on any side, then he/ she may add the numbers across on a calculator. Before the spectator can even enter a number on the calculator, the magician already knows the answer- the magician is a human supercomputer!
Effect is beautifully packaged and includes complete illustrated instructions in English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish!

This is an old classic beautifully made.
Magic King or Prudential is no longer in business but a lot of their inventory is still around. I think they went out of business because they were too good for the money.
Every piece I have gotten comes with a nice little plastic box for storage. Many brass pieces are gold plated too.

One more of my favorites. I put 500 E on the table and say, it is yours if you beat me. I give the spectator the choice of a gold plated pocket abacus (it is still widely used in the Far East) and a small printing calculator (Of course they take the calculator) I start out with one log which most people can add up without any help and finish with all four logs pretending all the way to calculate the result with my abacus in 2 seconds. To those who are in disbelief I hand out the genuine 36 page instruction booklet that came with the abacus.
The trick is worth its price x 15. I know, because I had it copied in brass with engraved numbers and gold plated (to resemble the abacus) claiming the logs are my "pension reserve." The jeweler charged 150 $. But the original at 10 $ (I use the original nice case) is just as stunning and most highly recommended.
