If you hold this between a plain wall, or other surface, and a strong light, you will, with a little practice, be able to cast a shadow similar to one or other of these Madonna heads, which will vary in intensity and expression with the positions of the paper and the light.

Ask some one to cut the pack, and all the Kings will be found together. Some appropriate patter will help the effect.
