20th Century Brassier Trick

Description

Pre-owned from a magician’s estate purchase. Good clean condition. Written Instructions included.

Here’s a hilarious effect for adult audiences! This is one of those effects that is meant for a very specific audience and occasion. It is not suitable for children. Also good to use if they ask you to “pick on” someone, or if there is a heckler in your audience.

Effect: Ask for a male volunteer from your audience. Two handkerchiefs are tied together and the knot is tucked (discreetly and tastefully) into the front of the volunteer’s shirt, and then you and your volunteer each hold the end of a handkerchief.

You tell your audience that, on the count of three, you and your volunteer are going to pull on the handkerchiefs, making them pass right through the volunteer’s body without harming him in any manner. But when you each pull on a handkerchief, a BRASSIERE appears, tied between the handkerchiefs! It’s a silly surprise that will make everyone laugh, including your volunteer!

This trick is also funny if you use it on yourself. For example, you could pretend to have trouble handling the tied silks plus other items, and so you tuck the silks into your shirt to get them out of the way while you do something else. When you take the silks out of your shirt, the bra will be seen tied between them.
