MINIATURE WINE AND WATER. Circa 1900. A quantity of wine and a quantity of water are poured from two small glasses into an equally diminutive decanter. The vase is covered by a cloth, and the glasses by two leather tubes. When the cover is lifted from the decanter, the liquid has vanished, only to reappear ? separated again ? in the individual glasses. Height of tubes 5 ??. First example we have offered in this size. Finely made. These props were owned and used by a Professor Arthur V.W. Eltinge of Syracuse, New York.
