Magic Smith's Double Cross Trick for Mark Southworth

Here’s a refined version of the original content that enhances readability while maintaining the intended meaning:

Begin the performance by inviting a spectator to stretch out their hand and make a fist. Next, take a marker and draw an 'X' in the center of your palm before closing your hand into a fist. Without any rubbing, erasing, or any trickery, slowly open your hand to reveal that the 'X' has completely vanished. Now, ask the spectator to open their hand, and to their surprise, they will find the 'X' on their own palm! Encourage them to try to rub it away, but they will quickly realize it’s impossible - it's Sharpie ink! Reassure them that there's no need to worry, as the ink is safe, non-toxic, and can be easily washed off with soap and water.

The brilliance behind the Double Cross effect lies in its diabolically clever yet highly practical design. You’ll find it’s always inked and ready for action. There's nothing to prepare or assemble in advance - simply keep the pen in your pocket, and you’re set to perform at any time throughout the evening.

Thanks to the absence of difficult sleights, you’ll glide effortlessly through the routine, staying a step ahead of your spectators. They won’t even remember you coming close to them or making any physical contact. This results in a remarkable magic trick that is not only self-contained but also features no reset—making it suitable for performances surrounded by an audience. It’s truly a dream for table-hoppers.

Double Cross comes complete with the specially designed Double Cross Sharpie pen by MagicSmith, along with all necessary accessories. Please note that this item is not intended for use by children aged 12 and under.

To summarize, the Double Cross effect is:

• Diabolically clever and highly practical
• Always ready, with no prior preparation needed
• Easily portable: just drop the pen in your pocket for on-the-spot performance
• No challenging sleights involved
• A stunning, self-contained magic effect with immediate performance viability in any setting

With Double Cross, you’ll amaze your audience and keep them guessing long after the performance is over.
