Vintage Tonte Jr. Magic Card Trick by Ton Onosaka - Bicycle Red Backs

A little while ago I was able to buy out some items from an old magic shop at a great deal so I have lots to share at a great price.
This is one of those items!

This is a vintage card trick set called "Tonte Jr." by Ton Onosaka.
Set is complete with 5 special cards and instructions. Cards are near mint or better and are unused. Set comes in original baggie.
Cards are special bicycle red back playing cards and measure standard bridge size.
Not marked with a date but I believe this is 90s. Hard to find!

Effect:
Three cards are shown: two tens and a jack.
The spectator is invited to try the classic game of 3-Card Monte.
The cards are mixed, and the spectator tries to locate the picture card without success -- for now the performer holds three tens---the jack is found inside the magician's pocket!

The game is repeated with the four-card set.
Again, the spectator is unable to find the jack, for the packet now consists of four tens; the jack is again inside the magician's pocket!

The performer suggests that a five-card game is too difficult, so one card is dealt aside. The remaining cards are mixed. The spectator is asked to locate the jack -- and of course, suspects that the card that was put aside is the one. In fact, that card turns out to be a ten.

The magician comments, "Perhaps, the problem is that monte isn't the best game for you. Maybe you'd do better playing poker ... "
With this, he turns over the remaining four cards. To everyone's surprise, these now comprise the balance of a Royal Straight Flush, so that the performer finishes with the ten through Ace of Spades, in sequence.
