The Ultimate Rip-off is Paul Harris' approach to the Torn and Restored Card plot first published in Supermagic (1977), then later reprinted in Art of Astonishment, Book 1 (1996). Significant in that it uses only one card and no extra pieces. See also Ultimate Rip-off - Dancing with the Last Piece in Art of Astonishment for restoring the last piece.
