Vernon, Dai. Linking Rings likely owned by Dai Vernon. [American, ca. 1970 ?]. Eight-ring set used for the classic trick of linking and unlinking apparently solid steel rings. “Featherweight” type, 12” inner diameter. With a letter of provenance from the family of Larry Jennings. This set was one of three owned by Larry Jennings at the time of his death. The letter accompanying the rings states that a set of rings owned by Vernon was sold at auction in 2012, and that it is possible, but not certain, that this is the second set of rings Larry and BJ Jennings were given by Vernon.
