Finger Chopper

Description

Finger Chopper: ( FINGERCHOPPER ) Trick. An impossible penetration!

The steel blade magically penetrates thru your victim’s finger without harm! Brand New: As is, no returns. See photos for details and visual description.

Trickmaster “Magic Finger Chopper”, a magic trick / novelty on its original card: a yellow plastic mini guillotine sealed in a clear blister. The card says: “The steel blade magically penetrates thru your victim’s finger without harm! An impossible penetration!” New on the card, never opened, 4 available, all the same. A magic trick and novelty item, not a toy.

How it works, per the back of the card (quoted): “Place your finger inside the guillotine beneath the shiny blade. With the downward slamming of the handle the blade appears to pass through your finger, doing no harm!” We have not opened or tested it and make no claims about the blade, its sharpness or its safety beyond what the card says. Please read the package.

WARNING (printed on the back): “CHOKING HAZARD – Small Parts. Not for Children under 3 years.” This is a magic trick/novelty, not a toy. Please follow the card’s warning and age note.

What I can see in the photos: a yellow plastic guillotine with black plastic ends, a finger opening, and a shiny metal-looking piece visible in the oval at the bottom of the yellow body, all sealed inside the clear blister. A printed instruction sheet appears to be tucked behind the finger opening (partly visible: “…HOPP”, “nger inside the”, “When the”, “victim’s fing”). The card also shows a printed picture of a finger in the guillotine. The contents are sealed and were not opened, so this is all that can be said about what is inside.

Condition (please see photos): new on card, with scuffs and small marks on the card, black ink flecks along the lower back edge (part of the printing on the dark strip, as shown in the back photo), and light wear. The front had a store price sticker on the yellow header, which is not shown in the photos (see flags). The blister looks intact in the photos.

From the back of the package: “MADE IN INDIA”. Side text (printed sideways): “2004 TRICKMASTER LLC, INC MBSC 29577” (2004 is the copyright year as printed). UPC 0 60616 00002 3 (read from the photo; please check it against the package). Trickmaster logo on the back.

Age of stock: the card is printed “2004 TRICKMASTER” (the copyright year, not necessarily the year it was made), so it is older new-old-stock. No other date is claimed.
