Neyhart Rising Cards. Los Angeles: A.P. Neyhart, ca. 1935. Complicated mechanical Bakelite card houlette and custom-manufactured deck of Bee-back playing cards. Wear to gimmicked rubber rollers as usually encountered, otherwise very good condition. Uncommon. With this clever mechanical device, any card freely named by a spectator rises from the pack.
