Rod, Ball and Ring Mystery. Los Angeles, F.G. Thayer, ca. 1930. A ring magically links to a wooden rod on which a wooden ball is suspended, while the ball magically penetrates the rod. Lacking rod (easily replaced). Accompanied by three billiard balls, one solid red, the other painted in two colors similar to those used in Thayer's New Color Ball Passe trick, but lacking holes. Balls 1 ½" in diameter. Good condition.
