1 review for The Heart Of Glass (1 of 30) by Viking Mfg., Punx

  1. Andy Martin

    The original idea for this effect was Herz aus Glas by Robert Farchmin in German c. 1938.  The routine featured here was first published by Punx c. 1977 and this was translated into English by Bill Palmer c. 1987 with the release of Punx’s book Once Upon A Time.

    In 1988 George Robinson Jr. of Haenchen and Co./ Viking Mfg. Co. was given manufacturing rights by Punx to produce this amazing and beautiful version. It is very solid and looks perfect.  Whilst the mechanism is easy to operate, if you really want to do justice to it you’ll need to put on your acting cap.  But if you do a good job there won’t be a dry eye in the house 🙂

    Even if you don’t want to perform this it will still look beautiful in your collection which is often all that counts.
