Sword Suspension Illusion. Circa 1970s. Three swords are placed upright on a thin board. A woman is now laid on top of the swords, and two of them are removed, leaving her suspended from the tip of one sword touching her neck. The process is reversed, and the assistant steps to the ground to take a bow. With gimmick, three heavy cast swords, and board. Length of board 56 ??. Wear to all components, but overall a sturdy example of this classic stage illusion.
