- Lot Description
Vanishing Bowls. Hamburg: Willmann [?], ca. 1900. Four shallow glass bowls filled with water are placed on a plated metal stand atop the magician's table. The stand is covered with a patterned cloth and lifted from the table. The cloth is thrown in the air and the four bowls and stand have vanished. Mechanical table with three separate mechanisms; includes video describing operation. Table height 37?. Professionally restored. Rare. The mechanism built into the apparatus allows a clear view of the tabletop after the stand and bowls are removed; the top, at that point, is flat and free of gimmickry. No black art is used to vanish the bowls.
