The Mask by Mathieu Bich and Buddy Stein

Make a familiar blue surgical mask appear or vanish in the middle of your routine. The Mask by Mathieu Bich and Buddy Stein is a specially made silk prop, printed to look like an ordinary disposable mask and crafted to fit in a standard thumb tip.

Use it for a production, vanish, transpose, or classic silk effects. Its everyday appearance brings a timely, recognizable object into your close-up magic.

Key Features

• Silk construction: The mask is made from 100% silk and expertly printed, with strings to complete its familiar look.
• Thumb-tip fit: It is crafted to fit in a standard thumb tip for use in thumb-tip routines.
• One-hour tutorial: An included link provides a video covering basic-to-advanced thumb-tip techniques, mask handlings, angles, subtleties, steals, loads, and ditches.
• Routine ideas: The tutorial includes presentation ideas, including a version of Vernon's classic “Bill to Silk.”
• Important safety note: This is a silk magic prop, not a real mask, and provides no protection against viruses, including COVID-19.
