NORMAN?S MIRACULOUS SCREEN (BLOOMING FLOWER PAINTING). London: Jack Hughes, ca. 1945. A mahogany frame bearing the painting of barren plant is shown, then set on the magician?s table. On command, flowers slowly and visibly grow on the plant, until it is awash in color. Height 2? (inclusive of handle). Good working condition. Rare. See Jack Hughes? World of Magic, Volume 2, at page 112 for a detailed explanation of the working of the effect. One of the most elegant and finely crafted of Hughes? many props. Rare.
