Crystal Casket. European, ca. 1910. A nickel-plated box with five glass sides is clearly empty, and hangs from the flies. On command, the casket visibly fills with colorful balls, handkerchiefs, or other articles, despite the fact that the performer stands some distance away. 11 ½ x 8 ¾ x 10”. Spring-loaded mechanism; heavy construction. A fine example of this classic magician’s prop favored by Hofzinser among others.
