Germain, Karl (Charles Mattmuller). Germain?s Gimmicked Gold Side Tables. Circa 1900. Pair of two carved stands outfitted with spring-loaded traps (in one top, two ball traps; in the other, a rabbit trap), a servante, and one metal elevator trap. With gold leaf-type finish and matching drapes. Height 32 ??. Considerable wear to felt tops. Vintage photographs show the tables on stage with Germain, who used them for years. The table with the elevator trap incorporated into it was used by Germain in the loading sequence of his Magic Mocha trick. See previous lot.
