Scarab, B Black Beauty Kit - The Ultimate Boon Writer by Ray Piatt and Norm Van Tubergen(M10)
Swami gimmicks have been used at least since the days of the 19th century spiritulaism, and probably long before that. The ability to write a message surreptitiously after an event and have it written prior to the event offers limitless possibilitites for entertainment and mystification. That's why skill with a swami is one of the most potent weapons in the mentalist's armory -- some would say it is the ultimate weapon. Ray Piatt's SCARAB is the ultimate in a boon style swami.
Happiness is a SCARAB!
- The beetle-shaped shell (from which the name "scarab" is derived) fits the shape of the thumb beautifully.
- The elongation of the shell provides a "heel" that aids the stability of the writing.
- The placement of the writing element forward of center provides a natural angle for writing.
- Vastly superioir design compared to Jerry Sommerdin's Deluxe Swami Gimmick by Eric Mason
