Flash Silk Glass. Hamburg: Carl Willmann, ca. 1915. At the snap of the magician’s fingers, a silk handkerchief appears in the heavy cut crystal glass shown empty a moment before. Nickel plated gimmick, glass 4” high. Fine. Later manufactured by Abbott’s Magic Novelty Co., this is the original Willmann model made to a superior standard.
