Description | |
Original items by Richard Himber are dear and seldom seen as the effects were produced in strictly limited small quantities using the highest quality materials available such as Italian Leather and Gold & Silver. Mr. Himber left this world far too soon in 1966 at the age of 59 and those alive today that knew him will tell you of the great loss to the magic community of one of the most colorful characters and clever minds in magic. The magician places a beautiful red ribbon around his neck to show how long it measures and following this places the ribbon in the trough of an envelope and pulls the ribbon so that it hangs evenly and then asks spectator to cut through the center of the envelope and ribbon. As the magician shows the two sections of the envelope to be separate a short piece of ribbon falls to the table which the magician picks up pushing it back into the envelope where the magician makes it all good again pulling the restored ribbon all the way out of the envelope followed by showing the inside of the two pieces of envelope to be empty! The ribbon is then placed around the magician's neck to show that it is still the same length! This does not come with the example prepared envelope as when new but does include illustrated instructions and you may make your own and includes the very special gimmick made of Sterling Silver. Includes original case and another Himber Scarcity. Condition very fine. |
