Norm Nielsen Manipulation Playing Cards

Norm Nielsen Manipulation Playing Cards

Designed specifically for the art of card manipulation, Norm Nielsen Manipulation Cards have been the gold standard for professional magicians for decades. Their ultra-thin construction makes them 1/3 thinner than a regular deck, allowing performers to back-palm more cards with ease and produce elegant, flowing fans.

Each card is printed on thin board stock with pips in all four corners, so you can fan beautifully in either hand. The cards come with brown or flesh-colored backs to enhance concealment during performance. They require no breaking in, making them performance-ready right out of the box.

For those who want the ultimate handling, Deluxe Nielsen Manipulation Cards are available with a special fanning finish applied at the factory. The regular cards will require several treatments with zinc stearate (fanning powder) to achieve the same smooth fanning action. We recommend trying both styles to discover which best suits your individual style.

• Ultra-thin stock – 1/3 thinner than regular decks
• Pips printed in all four corners for right or left hand fanning
• Brown or flesh-colored backs for concealment
• Available in Regular or Deluxe versions (with fanning finish)
• Bridge size only
• Used by legendary magicians including Channing Pollock, Neil Foster, Johnny Hart, Dale Salwak, Goldfinger, and Norm Nielsen

Nielsen Manipulation Cards make the art of card manipulation an even greater pleasure!
