Blackstone Glass Penetration. In this illusion, a sheet of glass measuring approximately 2' x 2' is placed in a brass frame. Wooden shields are placed in front and back to hide the glass from view. A large needle threaded with ribbon is then threaded through all the holes in the shields. The lot comes in a strorage case measuring approximately 35" x 8" x 13". With llot comes a statement of authenticity signed by Gay Blackstone who is the wife of the late Harry Blackstone, Jr. To Mrs. Blackstone's knowledge, only there of these illusions were ever made, and the Blackstones have owned two of them. The idea of the Glass penetration was inspired by the Wizard of Oz.
