Merlins of Wakefield - It's always magic at Merlins

This is a real close up miracle performed under test conditions. The basic effect is that the performer hands out a small metal tube, two metal rings and two pieces of tissue are given to the spectator for examination. The spectator is requested to seal both ends of the tube with the rings and tissue, thereby forming a drumhead. The magician then takes the sealed tube from the spectator; shows both hands empty; breaks through the tissue and produces a brightly coloured silk hanky!! All can be immediately examined.
