Himber Pitcher and Pail Trick. New York: Richard Himber/Gimacs Unlimited, ca. 1961. Milk poured into a pail vanishes; the pail has no bottom. The pail is upended, and a metal disc is then placed on its bottom. More milk is poured on to the makeshift bottom, yet it does not spill over. Finally, the pail is righted again and the disc is removed, allowing a clear view through the open pail. The liquid is gone. With original gimmicked Lucite pitcher. Heavy metal construction, height 7 ?". Rare. A rare example of the original model sold in limited numbers by Himber in the 1960s for the astonishingly high price of $125 (inclusive of the original pitcher offered with this set, but almost never encountered together with the pail).
