Manchurian Dragon Sticks (Arlen Studio)

Description

From a magician’s estate purchase. No instructions. Both sticks seem to work just fine. The Bamboo on one of the sticks has a long crack down its length (see second picture) and the small metal decorative button at the bottom is missing. Does not affect the operation of the stick. These sticks originally retailed for around $100.00. Because of the mentioned condition faults we are letting these go cheap. Selling as is.

The “Manchurian Dragon Sticks” have recreated the original effect and themed it with an Old World mystical look that will appeal to those whose taste in magic leans towards the discriminating.

You know the effect. Hold the sticks together at their ends. Pull the tassel of one stick down. When you pull the other tassel down, the first tassel rises up by itself! When you pull the first tassel down again, the second tassel now rises up! Your audience, at first enchanted with the routine, now figures that the sticks are connected at the back ends. You separate the sticks. Magically, when one tassel is pulled down, the other tassel still rises up!

Manufactured by Arlen Studio, the sticks are made of genuine bamboo, finished with hand-cast dragon heads.
