I recently purchased a "grab bag" of magic props locally on Craigslist. In the lot were 3 silks (2 black, 1 yellow)but they had plastic rings on the corners of the silks that attached them to each other. The one black silk has a ring that allows the other 2 to be pulled through it. Essentially, this allows the silks to be shown as black, black, yellow or black, yellow, black all "tied" together. I hope that description makes sense. I was just curious if this is for a particular effect. I was thinking maybe some version of 20th century silks, but I'm not sure if I am on the right track? Any thoughts from the experts? Thanks.

It's the 'Acrobatic Silks without the "stick". I don't remember the name of the "catalog" name of the prop,
SNEAKY, UNDERHANDED, DEVIOUS,& SURREPTITIOUS ITINERANT MOUNTEBANK

I think Marconick marketed the effect... originally. I t was knocked off by several dealers under different names.

Looks like you have Abbott's Odd Triple silk trick.
http://www.abbottmagic.com/Abbotts-Odd-Triple-ABBodd3.htm Contact Abbott's and see if they will send you a PDF, usually $4 for the instructions. |

Yes, the concept is by Marconick. A more advanced and complete version, with several additional effects, can be found here:
