"Martin Lewis has knocked this out of the ball park!! If you loved his last creation of the parlor size version of Cardio Graphic then you are going to go NUTS over this version! Imagine performing the now famous Cardio-Graphic in a walk about situation where the re-set is less than three seconds. READ THAT AGAIN!! It’s true. You can literally do this 50 times before you have to re-set. " -Paul Romhany, !VanishMagazine
"I have always wanted to present a close-up version of Cardiographic but have been unable to create my dream pad until recent advances in material technology made it possible.
"My criteria was simple, I wanted a pad that would comfortably fit in my pocket. That could be done surrounded under the closest scrutiny. It had to be self-contained and needed a fast reset for strolling, and most important of all, it had to look impossible."
- MARTIN LEWIS

With Close-up Cardiographic, Martin has taken his classic sketchpad Rising Card to the next level. The effect is the same as Cardiographic, but built for close-up performances; a drawing of a selected card rises from a drawing of a deck of cards. The resulting impossible object is handed out as a souvenir.
