Designer: Guy Jarrett

The magician shows a mirror on top of a platform base of octogonal (or hexogonal) shape. The sides are covered and a curtain hangs in front. The magicianstands inside and the curtain is removed showing he has vanished. The mirror is rotated to show he isn’t behind it. The audience suspects he is hiding behind the curtain which has been removed, but the curtain is swung back in place revealing an “old time girl” standing on the platform. The magician reappears at the back. Jarrett described his effect in Jarrett Magic. It was a variation of Herrmann’s effect, Vanity Fair.
