DESCRIPTION FROM THE MANUFACTURER:
A silk handkerchief is shown to the audience, placed on the table in front of the magician and folded into a square. The magician now shows a small envelope. Holding it up to the light, he says that it contains an invisible man. He asks if anyone can see the man. Of course, they answer "No", as the envelope contains nothing. The magician states that he will open the envelope and show everyone the invisible man. When he does this, a number of little footprints are seen on the inside of the envelope. The magician say that the invisible man ran out of the envelope, and went into the handkerchief. Placing his fingers near to the edge of the handkerchief, the handkerchief suddenly begins to rise and fall in a ghost like fashion. After this happens several times, the magician "invisibly" takes the invisible man from the handkerchief and places him back into the envelope. The envelope is held up the light once more- and the invisible man's shadow is now seen inside the envelope!
Interesting Trivia: According to TENYO BLOGSPOT: Created in 1972, the Invisible Man trick uses a principle that will be adapted later for the trick T-177 Phantoma in 1996. The gimmicked scarf was marketed separately in many Disney-branded versions sold in Disneyland exclusively in Japan.
