Triangular Production. Chicago: Okito (for Joe Berg) ca. 1946. Three flat panels rest on a black easel. When assembled into a triangular box on a low triangular stand, the magician produces a large quantity of silks and flowers, or even a small rabbit from its interior. Lacquered in bright red and black with Okito’s trademark Asian decals. Panel height 12” tall. Hallmarked twice (“Okito Maker / U.S.A.”) on uprights at reverse of easel. Minor wear from use. Very good.
