An excellent animated prop for family shows, this is a large (450 mm high, 400 mm wide) cut out clown. He holds a hat in one hand, a balloon is placed in the other. A packet of cards (Playing Cards, Picture Cards, Cricket or Baseball Cards, or whatever you choose) are introduced, and one selected by a spectator. Selected card is mixed back in to the packet which is placed into the hat. On performers command the balloon bursts and the clown tips over, and "catches" the selected card in his other hand. Made in quality wood and metal, attractively decorated, this packs flat for packing. Easy and sure-fire operation. Can be used for a signed card routine, as the card that appears is the same that was selected.
