Elusive Silks

A pleasing experiment with silks, good for stage or close work. Though very easy to perform, it is effective.

This introduces to you a very handy piece of apparatus known to Magicians as a Changing Bag.

A small bag, attached to a handle and resembling a church collection bag, is turned inside out and shown empty. Performer then turns it back right side out and suddenly a red handkerchief appears in it. This is given to a spectator, who is asked to place it in the bag again. He does so, and the handkerchief changes instantly to a green one. Here follows a series of appearances, changes, and disappearances which work into a pleasing routine.
