The
Perfect Double Bill Tube

Beautifully
and presision made.
Mechanism based on an idea by Al Koran.
Effect...
A note is borrowed, signed, ect.
A small brass tube shown empty, lid placed on and sealed with tape.
This is then placed into a larger tube which is then also sealed with tape.

This one of those awesome
props that is only up for sale as I have two! Just realised this prop is older
than me!
Davenports c.1940's
Again
this beautifully made prop was probably made in Germany as were many of the
wooden "tricks" of the earlier part of the century.
Cause any coin, ring etc. placed into the box to vanish and reappear at a location
of the magicians choice. A very simple and deceptive vanish.
This particular model is in beautifully pristien condition.
No instructions
Price: £45
Duplex
Slate - Ed Massey
(c. 1945)
Effect:
Ed Massey’s Duplex Slate was the first slate to produce a message on both
sides. A slate is shown and both sides are cleaned with a damp sponge. It is
then wrapped in a piece of paper and immediately given to a spectator to hold.
The person holding the slate is asked to unwrap the paper himself and writing
in chalk is found on both sides.
Points to remember:
Slates is cleanly shown on both sides
Nothing is added or taken away from the slate
Slate maybe handled by the audience before and after
No chemicals used
No sleight of hand
This particular slate measures 7 3/4" x 9 3/4" Inches.
Very clever mechanics. (The picture sort of gives away the idea of the mechanism).
Sorry NO instructions.
Price: £60

A
beautiful collectors item. Although still perfectly usable. There are modern versions
of this available and all of them probably twice the price of this beauty.
This I believe came from Davenports wether made by them or brought in I don't know. (This model might possibly originate from Germany) It is incredibaly well made unlike many I have seen where you can see where the gimmick part is. This has been made so that it doesn't stand out. The craftsmanship is outstanding!
The
effect... A box is shown to have a hole through its center. Upon opening it it
is seen to have a piece of glass filling the inside thus blocking anything from
going thru the hole.
The glass examined and replaced, the box examined too and closed a small ball is placed in the hole atop of the glass plate. As the spectator watches the ball slowly decends through the hole penetrating through the glass and landing in their waiting hand underneath.
The box in its entirety is handed to the spectator to examine.
This will come with a COPY of the origianlalinstructions
A beautiful item to add to your collection either as a collectors piece or a working trick.
This is in outstandingly good condition!
Price: £55
This is identical to the other one I have for sale on the collectibles page. The only difference is the visual look. The other has the two stripes along the top where as this is plain. Otherwise... No difference.
