Manufactured by Bluemel MFG in Germany, which was no other than Hardini himself! Exclusively distributed in the USA by Viking MFG.
The detailed instructions cover 4 different effects with the first one being:
The performer/Mentalist opens a small wooden chest and removes 5 envelopes, which are shown to be empty. Next, he borrows a one-hundred-dollar bill from a member of the audience, which is marked for identification. This bill is placed into one of the envelopes. into each of the other envelope is deposited a phony- play-money- bill. The envelopes are closed and mixed. ‘They are now given to a member of the audience who in tum mixes them once more. This is done while the performer’s back is turned. The envelopes are deposited into the chest and the lid closed. Next, the audience member selects four people at random to assist in the experiment. Once they are on stage, the performer lights a candle and provides a Champaign bucket for what is to take place. The performer steps to the side and asks that each person change places several times to make sure that their placement on stage is purely random. Once they agree on their positions, the performer asks each person to approach the chest and to remove an envelope, immediately placing it behind his or her back. For all intents and purposes, no one, not even the spectators know the location of the $100.00 bill. The performer turns to them and dramatically asks the first spectator to “Bum your envelope”. This spectator lights a comer of his envelope and drops it into the bucket. “Spectators number three and five, please bum your envelopes”. They also ignite their respective envelopes and drop them into the bucket. Now, spectators two and four remain. ” Sir, (addressing the owner of the bill) do not be alarmed. Should one of our assistants bum your fifty-dollar bill, I’m sure the management will replace it” (this is directed toward the owner of the bill). performer extends his hand as if receiving emanations from both spectators, and suddenly calls out: ”Number two, please bum your envelope.” Spectator number two approaches the candle, when suddenly the performer shouts, “WAIT! Not yet…. No, it’s o.k., go ahead, BURN YOUR ENVELOPE…. Well, ladies and gentlemen, if this experiment in psychic emanations has proven successful, the last envelope should contain this gentleman’s twenty-dollar bill. If not, allowing for inflation, little was lost. Consider your ten dollars an investment in your education sir, I’m sure aner this you won’t be so apt to give a stranger the loan of your five-dollar bill. Ok, enough of this levity. Sir, please open your envelope. Were we successful? … YES! Is this your $ 100.00 bill sir? Is this your signature? Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, and thank you sir, for being such a good sport.”
