ADAM the ADDER

£12.50

A bright yellow open-ended cardboard ‘sleeve’ with a cartoon illustration of a cheeky looking snake printed on the front is shown. He’s called Adam and apparently a very clever and educated one who can reveal images of chosen playing cards. A spectator selects a card from a deck eg: 10 of Hearts. The prediction card is partly withdrawn from the ‘sleeve’ – an image of the 8 of Hearts – Wrong! Adam is given another chance. The prediction card is withdrawn even further to reveal another image, this time the 2 of Hearts – Wrong again! After apologising, the performer explains that Adam is an adder and points to both card images and adds up their numbers 2 plus 8 equals 10. He also points to the HEARTS on both images and quips “Ah, th 10 of Hearts – your chosen card.” He then reverses the prediction card to reveal a LARGE image of the 10 of Hearts!  “Adam the adder is a very clever snake, isn’t he?” the performer asks the audience.
