Murphy's Standard Line of Close-Up Pads are everything but standard. These pads contain a thick, dense, high quality inner-cushion, non-slip rubber back, and a high quality fabric top. By all means a high quality, professional close-up pad with which you will be proud to perform. Available in two sizes and multiple colors.
Great mat. Adheres to the table surface so there is no slippage. Working surface is great for cards and coins. Get this if you do close-up with cards or coins.
It's a good mat. The back is grippy rubber which is solid and heavy enough that the mat won't slide, and sturdy enough that it doesn't crease when stored. The surface is great, just right for card spreads, pickup moves etc., and I went for the green which looks great too.
Great pad at a great price. It holds up well to the rigors of travel--it rolls up quite tightly and doesn't take up much room in your case. I have hauled mine virtually across the country, shoving it in small suit cases and it shows little wear and tear. I like the surface for especially coins and cards. The rubberized bottom keeps the pad from shifting while performing or practicing.
This pad has a really good quality, specially for its price. I didn't seem to much different from the economy version for me, while the deluxe one is much thicker, so it really depends on what you prefer. It helps a lot with many cards and coins sleights.
This pad gets the job done. It has a good thickness to it considering the price tier, and seems to hold up well after rolling it. I would never advise trying to fold it, but when rolled properly its still great when flattened out. The rubber at the bottom is strong and this is a nice surface to practice with.
A nice pad for the money. Several colors to choose from. Good for any close up magic.
it's very nice perfect for card and coin magic, quiet and smooth.I would recommend getting a bigger size it's worth the money. if you need a pad this is the one.
This is a great product. Great size and feel, no production or quality issues. Works really well. I can highly recommend it!
Truly nice and workable pad. I discovered that I should have ordered a larger one!Oh well…When I can, I will!
I loved the product! it is of very high quality and very cheap to buy, excellent for training and working, great for anything you want to do with it! I recommend the standard close-up pad for everyone!
I purchased the large black pad, and it has helped me out already with many tricks. Really helpful for things like chop cups, where you kind of have to slam something down on the table and don't want to break your props. The mat is also nice for presentation, as it turns the table into a "magic show" surface. Essentially it's a giant mouse pad, but that doesn't make it any less effective.

Michael asks: Hello, Do you sell cards that are already broken in or am I dreaming? Also, what do you recommend for a closeup pad?
Kim asks: im not quite sure of the difference between these standard pads and the deluxe pads, could you please enlighten me?
Caleb asks: Are the measurements in inches?
Enoch asks: Will the top layer peel from the rest if improperly used? I bought a pad once (NOT from VI) that was just glued together and it broke pretty easily.
