Camouflaged Tabletop Servante. Los Angeles: F.G. Thayer, 1940s. Secret device disguised as a patterned handkerchief draped over the edge of the magician?s table used to ditch, switch, or secure items. Length approx. 16?. Hallmarked. Near fine. Rare. Most likely based on an idea of Karl Germain, and the first example of this unusual sub rosa device we have encountered.
