Finely crafted hardwood frame holds a sheet of glass and two metal “targets” in the shape of a heart on each side. The magician inserts a sheet of red paper (or even a playing card) into the targets, and then pierces the glass. The cards are removed, and the glass is shown unharmed. Mechanism recently repaired and slightly loose, but very good condition overall. A scarce example of the classic Penetration Frame; the presentation of this effect devised by Punx (Ludwig Hannemann) can be found in his published works. Finely made and in very good condition.
