Hippity Hop Rabbits. Germany: Horst Chris, ca. 1960s. Now-classic “sucker" trick in which a black and white rabbit cutout passes back and forth between two tubes. Just when the audience believes it has caught on, a surprise finish is revealed. A scarce example and perhaps the first miniature version created, crafted from reverse-painted plastic. Expertly made in the manner of Taytelbaum, with minor wear to finish.
