Love this Table Top!!

I love this table-top! It's very practical, high quality and looks awesome. I like that the surface is so large - card spreads, coins and cup / bowl routines have plenty of space. I like that the felt surface can be removed, serviced and or replaced. It has an excellent lip around the three sides, leaving the back edge free for "special things." I put mine on a crisscross waiter's tray stand just like the photo. It's so easy to set up and take down - not only outside or collapsed across the backseat of my car, but also in my home. I can move my rehearsal space anywhere or transport a little show to my performance space for guests. I also find I keep more small props available on or near the table, and I practice more because I see it. My magic studio is filled with a computer desk, cabinets and book cases. This enables me to have performance space ready to play, practice and perform! I'm doing more magic because of it! WINNER!!!

Gorgeous... Love it!

Mine arrived today and it is gorgeous. I love it. I needed a table top for a custom table I have been working on and came across a review posted by Donald La Porte, and I could not agree more.

I too have been researching, searching, found a few I was willing to pay 2 to 3 times more for, but always, always out of stock. A million thanks to the Magic & Mystery Shop and to Donald La Porte to whom without his review I may never have found this site and this elegant hand-crafted close-up table-top.

I absolutely love it!

Every Detail Is Perfect!!

I purchased this close-up table top after a lot of research. I was looking for a performing surface that just wasn't another close-up pad; I wanted a mini-stage: something portable, something elegant, something to hold up to practice and performance, and I found there were lots of options out there- from the standard close-up pad to 200 dollar close-up pads. There were products similar to what I was looking for, but for three times the price. so my research continued until I remembered seeing this handmade close-up table top on the Magic and Mystery School website, so I immediately visited the site... and there it was! Hand made in Las Vegas by a local craftsman, for a fraction of the price as the others I was looking at. The ad said that it was designed to allow for replacement of the the pad if it ever wore out, and that was something I definitely liked. I ordered mine, and about 10 days later I received it, packed and shipped expertly. I unwrapped it and instantly fell in love! Every detail was perfect, solid well crafted, I could smell the fresh stain on the oak trim, and the way you change out the surface is absolutely priceless. So, if you're looking for a close-up table top to perform your magic that says something about you, then I suggest you order yours today. You will not be disappointed.
