Richard Himber Staggering. New York, 1962. A ten-carat gold ring set with a large red stone penetrates a ribbon threaded through it, or magically links to borrowed rings, among other possible uses. With original mimeographed instructions. Velvet jewelry box. At the time of its release in 1962, only 50 rings were manufactured ?by a Fifth Avenue Jeweler.? The trick retailed for the high sum of $35.
