- Lot Description
Chinese Candles and Lantern Production. New York: Richard Himber, ca. 1960. A candle is removed from two large nested tubes, which are then shown empty. Moments later, two more candles are produced, one from each tube, and, as a finale, a large, solid, and substantial wooden and brass lantern is produced, with a burning flame inside. Height of largest piece 14?. With original brown Himber box, and facsimile of Himber?s original instructions. Minor splitting to one wooden element, else good. Rare. One of two examples known, and likely the only complete set. Most of Himber?s tricks were produced in limited numbers; certain props, such as those offered here, were essentially built one-at-a-time, to order. Research has yielded no advertisements for this effect in magic magazines.
