Thank you for posting this. Here's a small story behind Kaps and this routine. It is of course a version of Victor's 11 card trick. Several years ago Michael Skinner showed the effect to Fred. Fred liked it and changed the routine into one with paper money in place of the playing cards.
@RS1963 Well I'd disagree there. Bongers was a great magician of his era but he couldn't have survived today. This old false counting magic would not stand up on Today's TV. It is too slow and boring. We need crucial street magic - levitations and card through shop windows and coins in soda cans.
@CaraBrimleyRules I will take it even a step further Chris Angel isn't fit to spit shine my shoes or anyone one else's on the whole North American continent. That is a fact.
@CaraBrimleyRules Once again please go play in traffic. When you do hopefully it will be during rush hour. I never said any thing about Vernon so please shut up and go find a busy freeway.
Thanks for posting. I first saw this on Parkinson in 1974 when I was just 15. So, it's 35 years since I last saw it.
On the show with Kaps was Ricky Jay, who did some brilliant card magic.

@Kjellstrom It was rubbish. Chris Angels is better.

@CaraBrimleyRules Chris Angel isn't even worthy enough to have spit shined Kap's shoes.

@RS1963 So Dai Vernon wouldn't have been fit to shine your shoes? That does surprise me.
