“Silent” Mora (Louis McCord). Silent Mora’s Net for his Balls & Net routine. Circa 1949. Brown netting with clothesline border and white wooden rings at each corner, used for Mora’s famous Balls & Net routine in which small spheres passed from one bare hand to another. As the balls transposed from one location to the other, Mora dropped them in the net before him, which was held by assisting spectators from his audience. Approx. 60 x 36”. Accompanied by a note stating “Gift from Charlie Miller Owned by Silent Mora.”
