Clingo Billiard Balls. Los Angeles: F.G. Thayer, Ca. 1930. Set of three white billiard balls and matching shell for the classic manipulative trick. Accompanied by a Clingo Silk to Ball gimmick. Shell 1 5/8?. Paint worn on one ball, else very good. Scarce. Each set of Clingo balls was turned by Floyd Thayer himself. The concentrically scored pattern, approximating the appearance of a golf ball, is one that no other wood turner in magic has been able to duplicate exactly. These scored lines allowed the performer a surer grip on the spheres as they multiplied between his fingers.
