cold cuts \n routine with extra piece, description on extra insert with many photos
- first phase: a rope is visibly cu tin half with your fingers, two unequal ropes become equal, and then the rope is magically restored.
- second phase: false explanation: the magician removes the two ends of the rope, shows an endless rope, and puts the ends back on the rope.
-- "full circle" move
-- refreshments
- third phase: the magician asks a spectator to decide where the rope will be visibly cut. the rope is again visibly cut where the spectator specifically asked and the magician ties a knot that gradually disappears.
- fourth phase: the two ends finally travel from the magician's pocket to his hands \n romaric \n sandsational rope \n george sands
