Many "signed card" routines result in the spectator's signed selected card appearing in an impossible location.

That location could be a previously identified card:

The Signed Card by Bro. John Hamman found in Secrets of Brother John Hamman by Richard Kaufman
Mystery Card by Larry Jennings found in Classic Magic of Larry Jennings by Mike Maxwell
PaperClipped by Jay Sankey found in 100% Sankey by Richard Kaufman

or a stranger-backed card:

Dream Card by Darwin Ortiz found in Darwin Ortiz at the Card Table
Airmail Card by Jim Swain found in Miracles with Cards

or a different location altogether (marketed effects):

Mystery Box by John Kennedy
Destination Box by Jon Allen

many, many varieties of Card to Wallet also fall into this category

Often, this translocation occurs after a routine like, for example, Ambitious card.
