Bathing Beauty. Colon: Abbott's Magic Novelty Co., 1950s. Culpitt's comedy effect; the lady on the cloth banner is spared all indignity when her cape and suit are removed; the picture magically changes twice as it is folded and unfolded. At the conclusion, the tide has come in – up to her neck, to hide her state of undress. Lacks tiny cape and bathing costume (which may be replaced with silks). 21 ½ x 17 ¾". Staining to cloth. An early and attractive Abbott-made model.
