Before Milson Worth there was the original Davenport that issued this great effect. The effect is a queen of diamonds with a hole in the center is shown and placed into a frame. A blank silk handkerchief is shown and it is fed through the hole in the frame and through the queen. As the silk is fed through it visibly changes into a silk scarf with the queen on it! The illusion is perfect!. The card is then removed from the frame and found blank!
I would estimate circa 1940 on this one. Silks are replacements. It is an oldie but in good condition. Scarce.
