This is one of best and most popular inventions from the prolific American Magician and Inventor: Ed Massey c. 1954. This is the original version sold by Massey, but they were not built by Ed himself, instead he had them built to precise standards by Andrew E. Buchanan Jr., who also supplied the wonderful patter-story that perfectly takes you through the moves giving motivation for each phase and also covers the one move very nicely. This original version is much better than I was expecting because I’ve often heard poor things about Massey’s early works – but it maybe better because Ed didn’t actually build any of them as far as I can ascertain. This original version is clearly surpassed by one of Milson-Worth’s crown Jewels, but it still looks great and works very smoothly.
