Pillar of the Magi. Los Angeles: John Gaughan & Associates, 1999. A pack of cards is placed in the base of a wooden platform from which extends a brass pole, at the top of which sits a figure of Hermes. The cards then spring up in a shower, and one is caught in the Greek god?s hand ? the spectator?s selection. Wooden base and brass hardware. Two electronic card fountains in base. 29? high. Hallmarked. Working. Modeled on an Otto Maurer design.
