Henning, Doug. Doug Henning’s Khyber Cobra. Collectors’ Workshop, ca. 1987. Automaton snake rises from a basket—first with an incorrect card in its mouth, then, after several more cards fly out as the snake searches for the right one, reappears with the correct card. Finally, the snake peeks out once more for applause. Complete with padded ATA case, playing cards (including a packet of three prepared cards labeled as Doug Henning’s), hand mirror, and Yamaha recorder. Owned by Doug Henning. Provenance: WMS Sorcerer’s Attic Auction, Jan. 16, 2001, Lot 6. With the consignor’s sales receipt from the auction, identifying the owner as Debbie Henning.
