In the July, 2004 MAGIC (pp. 90-1), there is a wonderful John Bundy routine. It's a Dye Tube routine using a rolled-up Declaration of Independence to change a Union Jack into an American flag.

David Kaye (a.k.a. Silly Billy) says that it's impossible to find a silk Union Jack. I cannot believe that. Don't they sell them for mountain climbers? <g>

Any thoughts, especially from to other side of the pond?

Also, I'd love to find a Colonial 13-star flag in silk. Some dealers should make this up in conjunction with John Bundy.

Try party stores for the flags. Also souvenir and costume shops frequently carry theme flags.

Eric,

John and I talked a great deal about trying to find these silks. I have even checked with my friends in Japan to no luck without buying a whole set of flags.

Maybe this winter I will get ambitious and try to make some up.

There are a couple of UK-based stores that sell silk ties printed with the Union Flag. Maybe one of them can give you the name of their supplier.
