Write A Rope. New York: Richard Himber, ca. 1956. The word ?rope? written on a slate in chalk is visibly removed from the slate and transforms into a length of white clothesline. The rope later vanishes and the word reappears on the slate. 12 x 9?. Hardwood slate, gimmick. Minor chipping to paint on gaff. Good.
