Performer displays a wallet, with a small square flap on top. The wallet is opened, and found to contain a mirror attached to a ribbon. The mirror is removed and displayed freely on both sides. The mirror occupies the inside of the wallet, fitting snugly into a groove. The mirror is placed in the wallet which is closed. The ribbon attached to the mirror emerges from the wallet, and is held by a spectator. If the mirror moves the ribbon will give away the movement.

The wallet is closed. The small square flap on top of the wallet is opened to reveal a square hole. The mirror is under the hole. An examined dice is placed over the hole, and the flap partly covers this. Now, in a most uncanny manner the die is seen to sink through the mirror. It appears to melt right through, and finally drops out under the wallet. Immediately the wallet is opened to show the mirror in place, which can again be removed and examined, as can the die.
