Rice and Orange Transposition Cones. Circa 1910. Set of three nickel plated cones used for the trick in which an orange and a quantity of rice or millet magically transpose locations. One finial loose, one resoldered. One cone with an internal gimmick for dropping rice. 13” high. Possibly manufactured by Roterberg.
