Face-Up Tent Vanish by ReidFerry

Created by: ReidFerry

The Face Up Tent Vanish is a close-up card magic trick where a playing card is made to disappear in a highly deceptive manner. The magician shows a card face up, places it into what appears to be a palm, and then, with a subtle motion, makes it vanish completely. This trick is versatile, working in any environment, and is particularly noted for its practicality and ability to fool even fellow magicians. It involves a combination of techniques including the tent vanish, double lifts, and palming.
