Sensational Talking Skull. Colon, MI: Abbott’s Magic Novelty Co., ca. 1949. Clockwork mechanism concealed in the base supporting this faux skull allows the magician to apparently converse with the skull, its jaw clicking out answers to questions posed by the performer and the audience. Chipping to finish on jaw, else very good. Complete with packing case, key, covering cap, instructions, and handwritten routine of the former owner. Scarce.
