- Silks Supreme by Keith Clark (1943)
Here is a complete act with silk handkerchiefs that can be performed anywhere, while surrounded. Handkerchiefs appear, multiply, become knotted, and finally turn into 18 handkerchiefs- each one a yard square. The routine was met with favor all around the world (England, France, Norway, Sweden, and the United States) before all types of audiences and under all conditions. Mr. Clark presented it with great success during his engagements at New York City's famous Rainbow Room and Loew's State Theater on Times Square.

The basic effect: Three of six silks shown separately are placed on a chair. The other three are knotted together, then placed on a second chair. As a sympathetic bond between the two sets of silks, the first set ties itself because the performer tied the second set. And the three separate silks are now found tied together.
