Description

Learn Samuel Berland’s Soap Swindle, inspired by the classic confidence scam popularized by the infamous hustler, ‘Soapy’ Smith. 

The mark gives you a signed bill which is wrapped in a bar of soap. Several bars of soap are mixed around to get the mark to lose track of their money. The mark selects the bar of soap he thinks his money is inside. Upon choosing the wrong soap he is given a consolation prize; a sealed box of Ivory Flakes. The rest of the bars of soap are opened up to show the bill has disappeared. The audience is then made to open the sealed box and sure enough the signed bill is found inside. 
No duplicate bills, no switches, no fake or prepared bars of soap. Can be performed anywhere without any assistants.
