Spirit Bell. Chicago: National Magic Co., ca. 1945. Chrome-plated bell on skeleton stand, glass tumbler, ringing device, and carrying case. The bell, though isolated under the glass, rings out answers to questions. Case 6 x 5 x 7 ?". Gimmick hallmarked, National Magic Label to interior of lid. The National Magic Company operated out of a suite at Chicago's famed Palmer House Hotel for many years. It had a sister store ? really a gift shop, that sold magic tricks and novelties ? located in the lower-level arcade of the hotel, which catered to novices and tourists.
