- Lot Description
Vernon, Dai (David Frederick Wingfield Verner). Dai Vernon?s Harlequin Act Linking Rings. Custom-made set of giant hollow rings, comprised of two single rings, one key, and one linked pair, for Vernon?s sonorous, and genre-establishing routine for this ancient feat, in which the solid rings apparently link and unlink in a dizzying and deceptive sequence. Diameter 11 7/8?. A revolution in ring routines, Vernon turned an already-classic effect inside out when developing his sequence for the Harlequin Act, and, as with the rest of the routines in the act, charted a new course for all who followed him. Using the five giant, hollow rings offered here ? custom made for this routine ? Vernon choreographed both visible and audible deceptions with the hoops never-before considered by his colleagues. It should be noted that these giant stainless-steel tubes, including and perhaps most importantly the key, ring ?like bells? on purpose, as a result of Vernon?s careful consideration and study of the effect. As the rings link and unlink, any one of them can be tapped against the other smartly to make a pleasing chiming sound. Vernon was likely the first magician to use this type of ring, in this size, and these types of auditory elements to their fullest extent, developing a symphonic version of an ancient and timeless trick that remains a favorite of both audiences and magicians alike to this day.
