National Magic Improbability: 1950’s

Winning Bid: $280.00

This is a highly sought after effect from National Magic.  Read the effect below. Every word is true.

A transparent tube, a silk handkerchief, and a giant card with a hole in the center are passed for examination.

while the audience is examining these articles the performer directs attention to an easel and a frame.  The frame is made in two sections and has a slot in the top i which the giant card fits perfectly. There is a hole in the center of the frame which a a trifle larger than that of the giant card.

Spectator is asked to insert the handkerchief into the tube, allowing a port of the silk to hang out of each end. Performer places the frame on the easel and then places the tuba through the frame allowing it to project from each end.

He now takes the giant card and places it in the slot in the top of the frame and slowly pushes it down.

It apparently goes right through the tube and handkerchief!

He now takes the frame with the card and the tube and hands it to the audience. A spectator is asked to take the frame apart. Inside they find the card with the tube still passing through it.  Card frame and silk are then thoroughly examined.

In  very good condition.  The frame placed on the stand is 13 inches tall. Everything breaks down for packing. A truly baffling creation with original instructions.

Estimate $350-550
