Automatic Billiard Ball Ladder. Flein: R?diger Deutsch, ca. 2000. The magician produces solid, red billiard balls at his fingertips one at a time, filling the cluster-like framework at the top of the ladder. Then, the balls vanish one at a time from the stand, cascading down the ladder, back-and-forth, falling into an opera hat waiting below. Mechanical billiard ball stand operates with clockwork motor, vanishing and dropping the billiard balls in sequence. Height approx. 67?. Breaks apart for packing. Modeled on a Conradi design.
