No T’ ■” Elastic Pull Two borrowed hats are placed on chairs on each side of the performer, who exhibits two cards, say the Ace of Clubs and the Five of Diamonds. He drops one card into each hat. Then, at the word of command—“ Abracadabra!” the cards change places. From the hat into which he dropped the Ace of Clubs the performer takes the Five of Diamonds, and the Ace of Clubs is found in the other hat. There is no hanky-panky. The hands are kept wide apart and clear from the body. Again the cards are dropped into the hats, and, “Presto!” they change back as they were originally. A good effective trick, that puzzles everybody, yet is quite easily performed. Price 2/3 Posted. /
