Write A Rope. New York: Richard Himber, ca. 1956. The word "rope" written on a slate in chalk is visibly removed from the slate and transforms into a length of white clothesline. The rope later vanishes and the word reappears on the slate. Hardwood slate, gimmick, original carrying case, and instructions. Very good.
