Alan Warner ORIENTAL BLOCKS MAGIC WHICH HAPPENS IN THE SPECTATOR'S OWN HANDS. A SPLENDID CLOSE-UP EFFECT WITH A GREAT CLIMAX A miniature pagoda-style cabinet of first-class design and finish, as are all Alan Warner props, and six coloured blocks are shown. TWO BLOCKS ARE FREELY SELECTED, then all six are returned to the cabinet and secured by a metal spike which is thrust through the cabinet and the centre of the blocks. With the cabinet left resting on the table, a spectator is invited to hold each end of the spike: he then lifts the cabinet clear of the table, the cabinet AUTOMATICALLY REVOLVES ON THE SPIKE, the door open and THE TWO SELECTED BLOCKS flip out across the table leaving the remaining four blocks still securely imprisoned in the cabinet by the metal spike. The cabinet (3 1/2" x 1 1/4" x 2") is finished in yellow and red lacquers with a black trim. A nicely designed and decorated prop which will create IMMEDIATE SPECTATOR INTEREST.
