Ribbon Fantastique by Ed Massey

A beautiful frame is handed for inspection. A plexiglass sheet with acuratly machine drilled holes is also pased out. The plexiglass sheet is slid into the frame and anyone may look through both holes in the frame and plate noting the holes align. A ribbon, or shoe lace, is then visably threaded through the holes in the frame and sheet. The frame is turned around to show the ribbon or lace passes completly through. The ribbon. Nothing could be more fair. In a split second the plate is removed. It happens so fast it astonishes the audience and they have no idea how it is done. All parts can immediatly be handed for examination again. There is no clue as how the magician causes this astonishing effect.
