JACK IN THE BOX OR THE LEARNED JUDGE. Los Angeles: John Gaughan and Associates, 1995. Gaughan?s recreation of the Robert-Houdin/Okito effect in which a chosen card, placed in the drawer at the bottom of a handsomely lacquered box filled with dry tea leaves, is suddenly and instantly revealed by a Mandarin figure that springs from the box when the lid is re-opened. The tea has vanished, and in the figure?s hands is the spectator?s chosen card. Height (closed) 7 ??. With an engraved plaque on the rear panel presenting the prop to the Klostermans by John Gaughan. Minor chips to finish.
