B.S. Board by Jeff Stewart

Created by: Jeff Stewart

The B.S. Board is a large-scale stage and parlor magic trick designed for mentalism and visual effects. In this routine, a spectator freely chooses a word or draws an image, and it mysteriously appears on the board from a distance, even when the performer's back is turned. This creates a baffling and interactive experience for audiences, making it ideal for theater shows, corporate events, and other settings with big crowds. The trick requires no complex sleight of hand, is professionally finished for durability, and is promoted as a ready-to-perform solution for magicians seeking a high-impact addition to their acts. Buyers should note that it is specifically designed for stage use with high visibility, and while the method is not disclosed, it emphasizes ease of use and strong audience engagement.
