The vanishing cage the pros REALLY use!

During your act, up to 6 doves are placed into the cage seen resting on a thin table. The cage and doves are covered with a beautiful foulard. All is brought forward to the footlights and tossed up. The cage and doves are gone!

Never in the history of magic has this classic effect been offered in such a stunning presentation. Not only does the cage appear very solid and sitting on-not in a table, but the cage appears to have feet giving a "view" underneath. About a year ago, pro magician Jason Purdy and I began to correspond via e-mail. He wanted to share some improvements for my Cage vanish V 2.0. I was able to implement almost all of his ideas and the PROline Cage Vanish V 3.0 was born. I was extremely happy with the look and new features such as air-holes and wide corner bars. It all really added to the overall look and performance of the prop. Jason, however, was not content to rest. So came the revolutionary idea of using black art to create "feet" for the cage. It required a bit of re-engineering but a few months latter....the PW (P for Purdy, W for Wiggs) PROcage became a reality. To add the final icing on the cake, I developed a new, more compact base for the cage.. the PRObase. I now feel the product is perfect.

"Finally, a Vanishing Dove Cage that actually LOOKS like a bird cage resting on top of a table!

After being involved in magic for over 25 years, I have had the opportunity to see many great performers present this classic illusion. And I have always hoped that someday I, too, would get the opportunity to join the great bird workers and present this effect myself. But which cage to get? There are several, well made cages to chose from - Owens Magic Supreme and Nielsen, to name a couple. And then there was the Proline, versions 2 and 3. All great looking cages, yet something was missing? I couldn't quite put my finger on it, until I saw the PW ProCage! Finally, a Vanishing Dove Cage that actually LOOKS like a bird cage resting on top of a table! Once I saw the picture, followed by a demonstration video by collaborator Jason Purdy (the "P" in PW), I KNEW that my search was over!

I contacted Cliff Wiggs directly, and he patiently discussed all of the design improvements that had gone into this new cage. And the communication from Cliff continued through every step of the production process - I wasn't left hanging, wondering what was going on with my order. Every detail, from base design, stand design, cloth fabric choices, etc. were discussed with me, allowing me to be fully involved in the production of my cage. This, coupled with an optional ata case made specifically the cage, made for an incredible stage prop that I will be using for years to come!

And as for the cage - WoW! I don't know how to put into words how well made the cage is, and how good it looks in person. I'll have to let the photos speak for themselves. The cage was put together easily enough, and looked like a cage sitting on top of the table. The highly polished aluminum trim has a mirror finish, as does the black beveled base. The latching mechanism is fool proof - no worries about untimely triggering! The cage actually has a floor! No premature vanishing birds (look mommy, now there's only 2 birds in the cage? Oh, there he is - peeking out from the bottom!) The black base itself is beveled so well that it has to be one of the thinnest available. You could even roll this thing out and use it as a side table if you had to! As to the actual performance, this thing works like a dream, each and every time. No bird tails sticking out after the vanish, no cloth getting sucked into the table. It just works - like it is suppose to!

If you are a bird worker looking for the ultimate vanishing cage, then look no more! The PW Procage is going to be THE choice of professional performers everywhere!"

I've known Cliff for 10 years and he has always been nothing but 100% professional not only in his quality of magic he's built for me but also as a business man and as a human being. I've been through almost every version of his Vanishing Dove cage line and he continues to provide the magic community with stunning craftsmanship and concepts. His latest PW Cage he put out has to be the most top notch piece of equipment I've ever had the pleasure of putting my fingers on. I am impressed the most with how much attention to detail was put into the bird's safety in the design of the props from the simple adjusting of the air pressure to the special air holes placed in the bottom of the amazingly deceptive yet very roomy double beveled base. I honestly just can't say enough good things about Proline Magic. -Dan Sperry
