Tennis, Anyone? Colon, MI: Abbott?s Magic Mfg., ca, 1977. The magician removes a tennis racket, devoid of strings, from a large wooden case. A ball of yarn is then dropped into a short metal tube. In a flash, the yarn in the tube appears on the racket as its strings, and from the tube falls a tennis ball, which may be bounced on the racket. Original case, racket, tube (with paint worn) and yarn. Case 27 x 18 ? x 4 ??. Rare. This is Neil Foster?s version of the tennis racket trick favored by Les Levante and Bill Stickland, using an entirely different method. Abbott?s manufactured the effect for only a short time, and this is the first example we have encountered.
