-This idea has popped up numerous times over the years. A few examples: Jack Chanin decorated a dye tube to look like a cigar, so that he could produce it after the silk-dying effect. In "The Ceremony of Atman-ka" by Stephen Minch (in Tony Andruzzi's //Grimoire of the Mages//), after a toad is produced from a Drumhead Tube, the load chamber is produced as a "ceremonial obelisk". A bit subtler example is James Dimarre's "Astaire Change" (//[[http://askalexander.org/display/13337/Spectacle/139|Spectacle]]//, 1990, p. 157), in which an Appearing Cane aids in changing the color of a silk, then the cane is produced from the silk. Fantasio marketed a trick in which a silk and a battery in a flashlight transposed the silk going into a false, hollow battery//, à la// Silk to Egg. Mike Caveney decorates a load bag to look like a comedy chicken, so that once the load items have been produced from someone's coat, the bag comes out as the last item. See "Comedy Load Bag" in his //Magicomedy//, 1981, p. 73.+This idea has popped up numerous times over the years.
