Connie Haden Cups. Brooklyn: Conrad Haden, ca. 1959. Set of three finely spun silver-plated cups for the ancient feat some consider the oldest trick in magic. Mouths 2 5/8” diameter, 2 7/8” high. Very good. One of fewer than 12 examples known. Haden’s cups are sometimes mistaken for the popular Paul Fox design, though close examination reveals that the sets manufactured by the Brooklyn craftsman are of a slimmer profile and were all silver plated. Haden’s version never caught on, and as a result, the few sets he manufactured are sought after by collectors.
